Story
We did Brownie's DNA! He's about half cattle dog and the next biggest result was Boxer but he is mixed with many other breeds. Brownie is a sweet, energetic and spunky guy who had a rough start in life. He loves affection and is a good boy. He was found as a stray in Bonne Terre and got picked up by animal control, which is just a shed. We believe Brownie would do best in a more quiet home with older or no kids and an active owner that would spoil him and give him the life he deserves. Brownie will need a fence as he has a high prey drive and loves to chase the yard critters. If there are other dogs in the home they should be about his size or bigger. He loves to play with the other dogs. He has been introduced to the dog savvy catin the house and they get along okay.We only adopt to people in the St. Louis METRO area.

Story
Hi, I am Razz! I am a very sweet, low-key girl that is looking for my new best friend! I like cuddling up on the couch, playing with toys and chew toys. I am not a barker, and I never ever do my business in the house (I know that’s outside only!) I get along well with my foster family‘s dog and cats, but it’s also ok if I’m the only pet because people are my favorite! I may be small in size at only 8 pounds, but I have a huge heart and lots of love to give… I can’t wait to meet my person!We only adopt to people in the St. Louis METRO area.
