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 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. 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!

Please contact Constance (connibouchard@gmail.com) for more information about this pet.Rescued dogImportant Information Please read! If you are interested in me after reading about me, please visit my site, http://www.breederadoptions.org and follow the instructions. The majority of the dogs we rescue, mostly breeder dogs, have lived their entire lives in less-than-ideal conditions so will need to be socialized, house and leash trained. Most have never lived in a house, walked on a leash, had a treat or sat in a lap. For many of them, their feet have never touched the ground after living for years on wire until they arrive at our main facility where they are evaluated, groomed and given vet care. Most of these dogs are not socialized and need to be cornered to be picked up, so are not suitable for people with physical disabilities or suffer from PTSD. They need folks who will make them the center of their world and help them learn to trust before even attempting to train.  Please do not apply if you do not meet the requirements of the dogs we rescue.  However, they will learn with time, love, patience and most of all, commitment. You must have an ample supply of all of these to reap the rewards of watching these very special dogs become your wonderful companion. We state any known health issues, all are altered unless there is a medical reason not to, which we will advise, any known medical issues addressed, are microchipped, are UTD on all vaccines and have been checked out by at least one veterinarian, usually two. We do not guarantee the health of any of our rescued dogs. The dogs we rescue have lived with other dogs all of their lives and most get along with other dogs. We state if they are dog aggressive. We require a permanent, full-time parent. That means you must be able to spend the majority of your time with your new companion to socialize and train. We do not, under any circumstances, place them in homes with young children as they have not been exposed to children, and we do not know how they will react. Please do not waste your time or ours if you are not prepared to adopt within 2 weeks and you are not willing to pick the dog up at its location. Hi! My name is Olivia, and I am a little Maltese girl who was born 8/19/22, and I weigh 7 pounds. I am very timid, so I need an experienced adopter in an all-adult home and a socialized dog my size to learn from.  If you have been waiting for a gorgeous, Maltese lady please ask for me on your application to http://www.breederadoptions.org.
