Story
Adoption Fee: $100 Age: 12 years Weight: 7 lbs. Fostered in Fredericktown, MO Email: moyorkiemom@yahoo.com Hi, my name is Charlie and I seem to be in the market for a new family/home. My previous humans could not keep me any longer, so they surrendered me to YHR. I have been having a blast at my foster home. Did someone say that I was 12 years old? Well, I go by the saying, “you are as old as you feel”, and I feel 6! Foster mom brought me to the vet and I am officially up to date on everything. Even had the dentist clean my teeth and take out 9 that needed to be evicted. I’m extremely social. i.e., love all dogs and all people. However, if you don’t have any other dogs, that won’t hurt my diva feelings. That just means I will get more attention. I’m pretty much a free spirit when it comes to my sleeping habits. Sometimes I sleep with foster mom and dad, sometimes a random dog bed and sometimes go in the open kennel. It really just all depends on where I am when I get tired. BUT, beware, I’m told that I SNORE! Apparently very loud. I eat twice a day at my new home, which seems to be good since I would overeat if I were able to free feed. I like playing with toys, so I sure hope my forever home has a bunch of them. I’ve been really good about my potty habits here, but I will need to be brought out often if you expect this to continue. Here’s a tip: I don’t like to go outside when it’s raining. NOPE, not doing it. However, I love baths. I can’t explain it. I also like being brushed. A girl cannot be too pretty. I’m learning to walk with a harness and leash if anyone wants to take me on a walk, but I’d like a fence in yard to potty and play in. I love to snuggle with my people, love to be held, sit in laps, giving kisses, receiving belly rubs, showing and receiving affection, and, basically any form of attention. Normal household noises don’t seem to bother me. So far, I’ve only barked when foster mom or dad initially leave the house. I get a little anxious on car rides, but if you let me ride in your lap, it’s much better. Also, during storms, I like my people to be near. Other than that, I’m pretty unfazeable. Still trying to learn the pet steps, so you may have to just pick me up and put me down. Since I’m so social, I could be considered a flight risk when a door is open. I’m just happy go lucky and don’t know all the trouble I could get into, so it’s obviously going to be your job to make sure I’m secure. I hate to boast, but I’m a great baby with an adorable face and body and a cute name. I will do great in any home with dogs or will thrive as an only dog as well. I’m definitely a Velcro dog and like to be included on all that’s going on. So, who wants me?

Story
We adopted Lilly from a shelter in Henderson, KY. They did not have any room for her and she was not eating at the time due to stress. Her previous owners dropped her off after 7years. Theu said if the shelter didn't take her in, she would be put down. When we showed up, she ate for us ans was the sweetest dog. However, when we got home she did not get along w. Our other dogs. We have been trying for 2 years but it's not working. So we currently have to keep them separated, which is not fair to Lilly. She needs to find a home where she can be happy and roam around . She is amazing and so sweet around people. Just not with other dogs. Her previous owners did not own other dogs but she was raised around a few cats. She is very loyal, house trained and loving. She would be perfect for an experienced owner, someone with room for her to walk around. She is micro chipped. Does need her rabies shot for this year.

Story
He’s 4 years old, i found him walking on the road when he was a puppy. He’s the sweetest dog, loves to cuddle and play. Good with kids, great with other dogs. He’s completely potty trained, and kennel trained. Would make a good inside or outside dog with a fence or boundaries. I unfortunately do not have the time to keep him busy and would love for him to be somewhere he can be stimulated.

Story
This pretty girl is Selene was abandoned in our meet and greet with 2 puppies over 1 year ago. Her puppies were adopted quickly but Selene had to stay with us a while. She was heartworm positive and had to be treated before she could be adopted. Selene went through the heartworm treatment with no problems. Sadly, Selene is still waiting for her forever family. Selene would make a wonderful addition to the home of her choosing. She gets along with almost everyone but is dog selective at times. She would definitely have to meet all members of your current family before adoption to make sure it is a good fit. Selene does know some basic commands and is a very smart, playful girl.Please visit: Https://www.stfrancis-care.org/adopt for adoption information including the adoption application
