Story
If you are looking for a companion lap dog, look no farther. Introducing Eleanor, she's a 12 lb. 8-year-old Shih Tzu. Eleanor was recently returned to Needy Paws Rescue because her mama had to go into a nursing home and couldn't take Eleanor with her.    Eleanor is a precious  little girl that loves her food, being brushed but not a fan of getting her eyes cleaned or nail trimmed. Eleanor is crate trained housebroken, walks beautifully on a leash.   Eleanor prefers women and tolerates men but shy's away from them she WOULDN'T do good with small children. Eleanor barks at strangers but will warm up if given time Eleanor was a breeder release dog which means she is shy and skittish.   The best home for Eleanor will be a women only home and a small companion dog, a fenced yard unless taken out on a leash to potty. No small children please. Eleanor will be available for adoption after the 3rd of December. Her foster mom will be very choosy as to who adopts Eleanor.   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. Eleanor’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. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 1, 2025, 10:34 am

Story
My owner passed away, and family couldn't care for me. I came to the shelter with two other dogs (Sophia and Marley). We're bonded, but it's not necessary for us to stay together (but we'd like to if your home and heart is big enough for us all!). We're great with everybody (all ages), other dogs and cats! We're housebroken (if we get to go out every 2-3 hours) and crate trained (if you have to leave for a while or for overnight). We're all snugglers and great lap dogs!
