Story
This pretty little lady is Pixel.  She is guessed to be an aussie/shepherd mix.  She has personality traits of both.  We believe she is just under a year old and currently about 35 lbs.  She loves her people and prefers to be with them.  She loves other dogs and would do best in a home with another active dog, otherwise she will need someone who is very active and has time to help her burn her energy.    She has a lot of puppy in her and will drag off your slippers and chew up toys and other items if she needs to entertain herself.  She is sweet and affectionate and playful.  She is crate trained and does well in a crate and appears to be housebroke but does have a doggie door in her foster home.  She likes to warn you with her barking if she sees a person, animal, or leaf fall from a tree.   She is very smart and learns routines quickly so she is easily redirected.  She would be best with children older than toddlers as she loves to give kisses and may knock down little ones unintentionally with her affection. If you are interested, complete the  Adoption Application  on our website at  www.NeedyPaws.org  and we will contact you.  Adopters must live within an hour’s drive of St. Louis, MO. Pixel’s adoption fee is $295.00, which includes up-to-date vaccinations, heartworm testing and preventative, spay/neuter and microchip. We are a 100% foster-based rescue and all of our dogs live in approved foster homes. We are dedicated to finding the best Forever Homes, and will perform home visits and conduct veterinarian and reference checks for each potential adopter.

Story
Name: SEREN SADIE   Breed: SHEPHERD/CHOW MIX   PLEASE research the Chow breed before submitting an application       Age: 6 Years   Weight: 45 Pounds   Size: Medium   Good with Kids: Only if they are older respectful kids, who understand her boundaries   Good with Dogs: Yes, with slow introductions. Seren Sadie is very playful once she is comfortable with the other dogs.   Good with Cats: Unknown, but she does ignore the cats at the groomers   Energy Level: Medium   House-Trained: Yes   Crate-Trained: Yes. When it is time for bed, Seren Sadie will automatically go into her crate for the night.    Leash-Trained: Yes   Rides well in the car: Yes, she enjoys going for car rides   Good with Young Children: NO! Seren Sadie does not do well with young children because they do not always understand and respect her boundaries.    Good with Strangers: NO! Seren Sadie definitely has what is sometimes referred to as Stranger Danger. She is not a dog you can approach and immediately pet. Seren Sadie is a dog that requires a person/family that will give her the time, patience and space to accept you on her terms. You have to earn her trust and it is a process that cannot be rushed or forced, though Once she is comfortable with you, she is a very loving and affectionate dog. She would do best in a home without a revolving door of visitors. If you do have visitors, Please either crate her in another room, or explain to the visitors not to pet her or force her to interact with them.    Shy Or Confident: Seren Sadie is a reserved dog, who takes a while to warm up to new people. She does require another dog in the home, as she will watch and follow how the other dog responds to people.   Barks; YES! She feels the need to alert you to any and every person, noise or vehicle she sees or hears, and she does it by barking and howling very loudly.   Apartment Qualified: NO! Because of the answer above, Apartments, Townhouses, or Condos would not be a good fit for her   Needs a Fence and Required Height Of Fence: Because of Seren Sadie's fearfulness I believe a fenced yard would be in her best interest. We have a 4ft chain link fence and she does fine with it   Even with her quirks, Seren Sadie is a wonderful loving dog who wants to please her people, and smiles when she is told she is a Good Girl! She is not a big snuggler, but she does like being near you. She Loves having her ears scratched, and will put her paw on your leg when she wants attention.    Seren Sadie is crate trained, but after she is comfortable with the other dogs in the house she can be left out. She sleeps in her crate at night, but would be happy to s[eep in bed with you, if allowed   Seren Sadie enjoys being outside, but she does prefer her people to be out there with her   She does shed A Lot, but she does like to be brushed, so that is a plus! I go to the groomers every 4 weeks with my foster siblings and my wonderful groomer says I am well behaved while I am there.    Seren Sadie recently graduated from the Bonne Terre Puppies For Parole Program and she will come with her Training Handbook that shows what she was taught while there. She is treat motivated, but can be picky about what kind of treats she likes. Chicken is one of her favorite foods, but she doesn't like peanut butter.          If you are interested, complete the  Adoption Application  on our website at  www.NeedyPaws.org  and we will contact you.  Adopters must live within an hour’s drive of St. Louis, MO. Seren Sadie’s adoption fee is $295.00, which includes up-to-date vaccinations, heartworm testing and preventative, spay/neuter and microchip.
