Story
Sadie is a year old. She loves to snuggle and is a lap puppy. She needs a big yard to run but prefers to be with someone at all times. She needs a home without kids even older kids as she will growl and try to bite them. She is crate trained, up to date on all shots, microchipped and spayed. She would do best in a home with only small dogs.

Story
Meet Skye, a 2-year-old Maltese/Pomeranian mix weighing 11.5 pounds. This sweet girl is a loving companion who enjoys being close to her people and soaking up all the attention and pets she can get. Skye is a true lap dog at heart and is happiest when she’s curled up with her humans. She often makes her way from person to person asking for pets, happily soaking up all the affection she can find. She loves treats and is often motivated by them, which can be a great way to continue building a strong bond with her. Skye also gets along well with other dogs and would enjoy a home where she can share companionship and affection. We require an in-person meet and greet to ensure the best fit for both Skye and her future family. ------ Before being rescued, many of our dogs had limited socialization, so they may need some time to adjust to life as a family pet. Older kids are often a great fit for our dogs, and homes with younger children will be considered based on each dog’s individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may take a little extra patience and practice. However, with understanding and a gentle hand, most of these dogs adapt quite quickly. Being a part of their rehabilitation is a truly rewarding experience. To learn more about mill dogs and start the adoption process, visit our website!

Story
Meet Hero – A Brave Heart Ready to Keep Growing Hero is a one-year-old Maltipoo whose name couldn’t be more fitting. When he first arrived, the world felt overwhelming, and he kept his distance, unsure and afraid. But with time, patience, and gentle care, Hero has made incredible progress—and now, he’s ready to take the next step into a home of his own. Once he builds trust, Hero shows just how special he is. He will allow you to pick him up and has even begun seeking out attention, quietly asking for connection in his own way. Those moments feel hard-earned and deeply meaningful—proof of how far he’s come. He also has a playful side that continues to emerge, especially when toys are involved. It’s a glimpse into the happy, carefree dog he’s becoming, and it’s a joy to watch him discover that part of himself. Hero will need an experienced adopter who understands that his journey is still unfolding. He thrives with patience, consistency, and a calm approach that allows him to continue growing at his own pace. A confident, energetic dog in the home will be essential, helping guide him and show him what it means to feel safe and secure. This is a dog who has worked so hard to get here. With the right person, Hero will continue to blossom into a devoted companion, offering a bond that is built on trust, understanding, and quiet triumphs. 📍 Available for adoption at our Dogsville location in Humansville, MO 🖱 Apply to adopt at www.nmdr.org (select Missouri) ------ Before being rescued, many of our dogs had limited socialization, so they may need some time to adjust to life as a family pet.
