Story

Neeko’s Story – Please Read ?? I need people to read this one all the way through, because Neeko is running out of chances and it’s not his fault.Neeko is only 3 years old, but he has already been in multiple homes, multiple fosters, and now back at the shelter again. Not because he’s a bad dog — but because he has never had a stable life long enough to learn how to be one.Neeko came to PAC in January 2023 as a 7-week-old puppy from Rayville, Missouri.He went to foster, then was adopted in April 2023 — what should have been his forever home.But on 9/2/25, Neeko was surrendered after the owner’s wife passed away. From what we were told, Neeko was allowed to run freely through the neighborhood and was never socialized with people — only his owners.When he was surrendered, he was shaking so badly it looked like he was having seizures. He hid in the smallest corners and just whined. He was absolutely terrified.Since that day, Neeko has been bounced around over and over:9/11/25 – Foster to adopt ? returned because he was “too big”9/20/25 – Went to a foster to decompress1/3/26 – Returned from foster1/20/26 – New foster who considered adopting3/10/26 – Returned because they were going out of town and decided not to adopt3/10/26 – Went to foster to adopt again the same day3/21/26 – Returned againThat is at least 5 different homes since September.Imagine being that dog.One foster said:“He’s a sweet boy. He knows how to shake and sit. He takes treats very gently. He loves stuffed toys and watching TV. He adjusted well when we moved his bed. He never had accidents, never chewed anything, and doesn’t have separation anxiety.”Another said:“He is very well potty trained. He really needs a fenced yard where he can run. He remains a challenge but I think the right home could reduce his energy and anxiety.”The most recent return said:He doesn’t walk well on a leash, doesn’t like men, and is becoming destructive when people come to the door.But here’s the thing…This sounds like a dog that is regressing from being bounced around his entire life.Every time he starts to adjust, he loses his home again.Every time he trusts someone, they disappear again.Every time he feels safe, he gets moved again.He’s learned how to sit, shake, and be a good boy — but he’s never been taught that people don’t leave.Neeko doesn’t need perfection.Neeko needs consistency.He n

Hey there, hoomans! It's me, Colby, comin' at ya with a tail wag and a dream for my forever home!

MILO 💙 Male 🐾 Mixed Breed / American Pit Bull Terrier mix 🎨 Tan Hi! I’m Milo, and I’m a happy, social, people-loving puppy who’s currently living in a foster home and ready for my forever family. I’ve got a big heart, a goofy streak, and a serious talent for making friends—both human and canine. I absolutely love other dogs and thrive with canine buddies. I’m also great with kids and enjoy being part of the action. Whether it’s playtime, car rides, or curling up close to my people, I’m always happiest when I’m included. I’m still a young pup, so I’m learning as I go. I’m crate trained, leash trained, and doing well with structure and routine. I’m not fully housetrained yet, but I’m eager to please and picking things up quickly. I have a moderate energy level—I enjoy playtime and toys, followed by quality cuddle sessions. A yard with a 4-foot fence will help me get my zoomies out safely. Milo at a glance: Affectionate, friendly, and goofy Great with kids and other dogs Playful and toy-loving Rides well in the car Crate trained and leash trained Still working on housetraining Yard required (4-foot fence) I’m looking for a loving home that understands puppy life and is excited to help me grow into the best dog I can be. In return, I promise loyalty, laughter, and a whole lot of love. 👉 Ready to meet Milo? Click the link to apply, set up a meet and greet, and see if I’m the perfect match for your family.
