Story
FiFi was picked up on the side of the field along with 5 other dogs and was skinny. She is assumed to be around 8-9 months. With FiFi being so young she still has puppy tendencies. She loves kids but she is really bad about jumping (which most kids hate). She knows how to sit and loves walking on a leash around town. She is really good with a fenced in back yard and needs plenty of toys to chew on. She was really good with my other dog but now she is starting to get snappy with her. Im sure she can be with other dogs if introduced properly. She needs vet check-up as I have not taken her to the vet due to my own dog needing expensive vet care.

Story
If you are interested, you MUST complete the application. We will only set up meet and greets with an approved application. Pixie is one of 10 small defenseless little dogs that was dumped in the middle of many many acres of nothing but soybean and corn fields. What a horrible fate for these dear sweet babies. Animal Control was called and they called PAWS to see if we could assist with trying to catch them and take them in. We have spent over two weeks (at the time of this post) and managed to catch 7 of them. We are still working to catch the last two that we can find and have not seen the 10th one since the first day. These babies have been through quite the ordeal and are now ready to go on to homes where they will be loved and doted on. They are all shy at first and definite flight risks so they will not be adopted to homes with children and will require that the adopter have a fenced yard. This beautiful girl, Pixie, is very shy and will take someone with lots of love and patience to win her over. She came around very quickly with me but gets very scared if anything in her environment changes or if she is taken to a new environment (such as the vet). She is a very loving little girl who wants to be loved so badly but just can't forget that humans have not been kind to her. She is still very afraid of fast movements. She will do well with other other dogs as long as they are her size or smaller and allow her to be the boss. She is about 11 lbs and we guestimate that she was born around 07/01/2018. Her adoption fee is $350.

Story
Rhett was part of a hoarding situation. His lucky day came on June 14 when a kind soul took him from that terrible situation and brought him to PAWS. He was a pitiful site - his fur caked with feces and dirt, fleas all over him, toe nails so long he could barely walk, and so hungry. But, despite all of that, he found a way to be such a happy boy and seemed to know his life had just gotten better. He has been neutered, microchipped, and is up to date on his Parvo/Distemper and Rabies shot. He did test positive for Heartworms so we have begun the treatment and will be sure that is completed. This special, kind hearted boy deserves to know the love of a family of his own and I just know the right one is out there waiting for him. If interested in adopting him, please go to pawspaws.org to complete the PAWS application. You will need to leave the Petfinder site and go to your Google search engine and type in pawspaws.org. Meet and greets will be arranged after we have an approved application. He is a treasure will make your life complete! His adoption fee is $300.

Story
This beautiful boy was returned to our shelter today after being in a home for most of his eight years of life. He was not adjusting well to having two small children come into his world so the decision was made to bring him back so we could find him the perfect for the rest of his life home. He is sweet and loving and thinks he is a lap dog!!! His birthday is 9/20/2018. He needs a home with no children under the age of 15. He is about 35 lbs and loves to go for walks and be with his people. Not really sure of his breeding but probably some heeler/JRT/???. I pray that this boy can find his new people quickly as he is bewildered and confused by having his whole world turned upside down. If interested in adopting Bear, please go to https:\\www.pawspaws.org to complete the PAWS application. He is neutered, microchipped, up to date on shots. His adoption fee is $150. See less

Story
Sheena was found on the side of the road. Someone had most likely dumped and then someone hit her and left her. A passerby picked her up and took her to the vet. Luckily her injuries were pretty minor and she recovered quickly. She is an energetic, smart, funny young girl who loves to play. She has not done well with other dogs so far as she plays really rough and can be intimidating! If introduced slowly, she will most likely be fine with dogs around her size. I would not recommend a home with small children since she does tend to play so rough. She is thought to be have been born around December, 2020. She currently weighs about 40 lbs. She is a happy girl who will make you smile with her beautiful happy outlook! She listens well and just wants to please so badly. Her adoption fee is $200. If you are interested, please go to pawspaws.org and complete the application. Once approved, I will contact you to set up a meet and greet so you can come to meet this baby girl! Thanks for your interest!
