Story
Tango is a gentle 9-year-old terrier mix weighing just 12 pounds, with a heart that craves love and connection—on his own terms. He adores attention and affection and is happiest when his person sits nearby, talks to him, and showers him with gentle love. While he isn’t a lapdog, Tango enjoys being close and feeling included. Tango also appreciates his independence and likes having time to himself. He’s perfectly content relaxing quietly on his own, making him a great match for a calm household that respects his need for personal space. He enjoys life’s simple pleasures: going outside and laying in the sun, chewing on bully sticks and other chewies, and playing with toys—especially ones that make noise or have squeakers. Tango would enjoy regular walks and, as long as he’s walked frequently and monitored on a leash, he does not require a fenced yard. He should not be left unsupervised outside. Tango gets along well with other dogs, particularly those his own size, and would do well in a home with or without other dogs. He’s happy sharing space but doesn’t demand constant interaction. At night, Tango snuggles into his comfy doggie bed in his foster mom’s bedroom and sleeps quietly through the night. While other dogs may climb into the big bed, Tango prefers his own cozy spot—comforted simply by knowing his person is nearby. With his peaceful temperament, gentle affection, and independent streak, Tango would thrive in a quiet, loving home where companionship is balanced with respect for his space. If you’re looking for a sweet senior dog who offers calm devotion without being clingy, Tango is ready to find his forever home. Tango is neutered, up to date on all his vaccinations, is heartworm negative and on heartworm preventative. He’s had a dental, is microchipped and dewormed. Tango’s adoption fee is $300. Out of state adopters are responsible for arranging transport. WE DO NOT SHIP DOGS. If you're looking for a very sweet and lovable little guy to join your family, please fill out an application on AAP’s website.

Story
Looking for a little shadow with a big heart? Meet Oreo, a 3-year-old, 12-pound Shih Tzu mix who is ready to be someone's devoted best friend. Oreo is quiet, laid-back, and incredibly affectionate. He may need a little time to adjust to a new home and routine, but once he settles in, he’ll happily become part of the family. Whether you're relaxing on the couch, working around the house, or spending time with loved ones, Oreo simply wants to be included. He gets along well with other small dogs his size and enjoys their company. Oreo would thrive in a home where he’s involved in everyday family life with people who enjoy having their furry companion by their side. While he loves people, we're looking for a home without young children. A securely fenced yard is a must for Oreo, so he can feel very safe as he navigates his surroundings. Oreo would also enjoy regular leash walks. He is not a dog who should spend long hours in a crate. Having previously spent far too much time confined, Oreo is happiest when he’s with his people. He will need a patient family willing to help him continue learning a consistent potty routine, as he is adjusting to life outside of the crate. Oreo is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, had a dental, microchipped, heartworm negative, and on monthly heartworm prevention. Oreo’s adoption fee is $375. Out-of-state adopters are responsible for arranging transport. WE DO NOT SHIP DOGS. If you're searching for a loving little companion who will greet you with a wagging tail, curl up beside you every evening, and fill your home with unconditional love, Oreo may be the perfect addition to your family.

Sadie

Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier Chihuahua

Details
Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Sadie is an adorable 5 year old yorkie mix. She was rescued from a hording house that held 40 other dogs and she never had an opportunity to learn how to dog. Meals were never regularly provided, there were no opportunities to learn about potty training, and there was NO socialization. She was left to fend for herself. As such, Sadie tends to be reactive when uncomfortable and needs a very special home. Sadie needs a quiet home with a dog savvy female owner. She will do best as an only dog. Sadie will bond with her person, but she needs some time to learn to trust. We have found that she needs about a week to adjust to a new person. When she is comfortable, Sadie is an absolute doll and is completely devoted to her person. She has a darling personality and gives the best kisses. While Sadie can walk on a leash she will not potty while walking. Therefore, she is looking for a home with a secure fenced yard. Sadie has the potential to be a wonderful companion and we are hopeful that her perfect home is out there. Sadie is spayed, up to date on all vaccines, heart worm negative and on heartworm preventative, had a dental, and microchipped. Sadie’s adoption fee is $350.00.

Shia

Poodle (Miniature) Maltese

Female, 5 yrs 4 mos
Bridgeton, MO

Story
Shia is a beautiful 5-year-old Maltipoo who is finally getting the chance to discover what life as a beloved pet should be. Before coming to All About Paws, Shia lived in a breeding environment and even had her last litter while in rescue care. Now that her puppies are grown, it’s finally her turn to be spoiled, loved, and learn how to simply be a dog. Shia is a very loving little girl who adores her humans and happily hands out plenty of sweet kisses. She loves cuddling up on laps and sleeping in bed close to her person. While she can have a playful, high-energy side, she also enjoys relaxing and lounging with her family after she gets her wiggles out. She is still learning many things about the world around her. Shia does okay walking on a leash, but she continues to build confidence with practice and patience. Car rides are especially scary for her right now. Her foster mom has been gently working with her to help her feel more comfortable, but this will be something her future family will need to continue helping her with over time. Shia is currently potty pad trained, and her foster mom is working on outdoor potty training — although Shia can be a little stubborn about changing her routine. Consistency and encouragement will go a long way as she continues adjusting to her new life. Her ideal home would include another friendly dog to help guide her, play with her, and give her companionship. Because she loves to run and jump, a securely fenced yard would be perfect for her to safely burn off energy and enjoy herself. Shia is looking for a patient, loving family that will continue helping her grow in confidence while giving her the affection she’s missed for so many years. In return, she’ll provide endless cuddles, kisses, and loyal companionship. Shia is spayed, up to date on all vaccines, had a heart worm test, on heartworm preventative, de-wormed, had a dental, and microchipped. Shia’s adoption fee is $350.00. Please go to our website aaprescue.org to learn about our adoption process.

Story
Meet Scout, his blue eyes are impossible to resist, but Scout’s sweet personality is what will really steal your heart! Scout is an intelligent, active, curious, and affectionate 5 month old puppy who loves playing with other dogs, rides great in the car, and thinks personal space is highly overrated. This little snuggle bug loves being close to people and giving kisses. Scout is highly food motivated, which makes him a quick learner, but he's still working on impulse control and feels you are required to share your meals with him (not happening, buddy). He's solid in the crate and is working very hard on potty training. Scout has decided that felines are not friends and will take the opportunity to show off his Beagle bay if something interesting catches his eye.Scout would love a home filled with lots of adventure, play time, fence, toys and comfy beds. And food, of course. Scout is up to date on all vaccines, neutered, on heart worm preventative, and microchipped. Scout’s adoption fee is $400.00
