Story
LOCATED IN TROY, MO Saphire is a spicy little Shihtzu that can hold her own when the bigger puppies get a little rough! She has a beautiful coat with colors of lighter and darker brown and some black. Those colors will change as she ages. Saphire is a happy girl and loves everyone and everything! She loves to play and we would like to see her placed with a family that has kids or a dog that is young and playful! Saphire also loves people and likes to get under their feet making her a trip hazard for anyone with mobility problems. Saphire was treated for Giardia, a common parasite found in puppy mills. She has finished her treatment and her stools should be retested in 30 days. Saphire's adoption is $500. She is current on age appropriate vaccines, microchipped and on monthly flea and heart worm prevention. Due to her young age she has not been spayed. A spay contract will be required. The spay is covered if using our vet in Troy, MO. Visit leiashope.org for next steps! PLEASE NOTE: We are a volunteer ran rescue with full time jobs. Please allow 7-10 days for application processing. All of our dogs are in foster homes and a meet and greet is done ONLY after an approved application. We do adopt out of the area. However, we do not ship or provide transportation. You must come to the location of the dog to meet and adopt. NO EXCEPTION. All family members and dogs must be present at the meet. Dogs are a commitment for THEIR lifetime. For puppies this could be 15 years. If YOU cannot commit to the lifetime of the DOG, please do not apply. Puppies under 9 months must go to a home where there is someone home frequently (works from home or a partner is home), can adequately socialize and train the puppy, and can keep up with puppy energy!

Story
Location: Troy, MO Opal is a sweet fluffy little puppy weighing about 6 lbs and born in January. She loves to play with toys and other dogs and run around outside. She wants you all to know, that even though she is small, she will stand up for herself if you try to take her toy! Opal was born in a puppy mill and likely did not have the socialization that young puppies need. She will need a family that will enrich her life with positive experiences and build her confidence. This can help with anxiety problems down the road. Opal's soft fluffy coat will require frequent brushing and grooming every 5-7 weeks. Opal's adoption is $500. She is current on age appropriate vaccines and microchipped. She is not spayed due to her young age and a spay contract is required. LHCR will cover the expense if using our vet in Troy, MO. Visit leiashope.org for next steps. Meredith's adoption fee is $315. She is spayed, received a dental, microchipped, current on vaccines and on monthly flea and heart worm prevention. Please visit leiashope.org for our adoption process. NOTE: WE ARE A VOLUNTEER RAN ORGANIZATION AND OUR APPLICATION PROCESS CAN TAKE 7-10 BUSINESS DAYS, DEPENDING ON OUR AVAILIBILITY AND YOUR REFERENCES. ALL OF OUR DOGS ARE IN FOSTER HOMES AND NOT AT A CENTRAL LOCATION. AN APPROVED APPLICATION IS REQUIRED BEFORE WE DO MEET AND GREETS. WE DO NOT SHIP OR TRANSPORT DOGS. YOU MUST COME TO THE LOCATION OF THE DOG TO MEET AND ADOPT.
