Story
Mattie is a sweet 3-year-old girl with a heart full of love. Found abandoned in a yard with long, severely matted hair, she hasn't let her rough start dampen her affectionate spirit. This little lady adores people and wants nothing more than to be close to her favorite humans. In fact, she'll happily follow you from room to room and has a funny habit of walking through and under your legs whenever she gets the chance! Mattie is doing wonderfully with her potty training and sleeps quietly through the night in her kennel. She loves playing with toys, especially small stuffed toys and Benebones, and enjoys spending time with her canine friends. She is still learning how to make friends with every dog she meets and would thrive in a home with a confident dog companion to help her build confidence and learn the household routine. Mattie is a calm, gentle girl who is non-destructive and easy to live with. While she hasn't been around children in her foster home, her sweet nature suggests she would likely do well with respectful, dog-savvy kids. If you're looking for a loyal little shadow to follow you everywhere, cuddle on the couch, and fill your days with love, Mattie may be the perfect match for you! Mattie is spayed, up to date on all vaccines, heart worm negative and on heart worm preventative, and microchipped. Mattie’s adoption fee is $375.00

Story
This very sweet little guy is looking for a family willing to give him the time, patience, and commitment he deserves. Because he experienced neglect during the first part of his life, he's still learning many of the basics that most puppies pick up early on. Although he's a bit older, he will need the same dedication and consistency as a young puppy when it comes to training and building confidence. Despite his rough start, Pharaoh has a loving personality and enjoys being around his people. He would do best in a home with smaller dogs and older, respectful children who can help him feel safe and secure. A fenced yard would be a wonderful bonus, giving him space to explore and play while continuing to learn about the world. With patience, structure, and lots of love, this special boy is sure to blossom into a loyal and devoted companion. If you're ready to help him write the next chapter of his story, Pharaoh would love to meet you!  If you are i nterested, 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. Pharaoh’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
King is a 10-year-old Shih Tzu who has been a beloved member of our family his entire life. We are looking for a caring home that can provide the extra love and attention a senior dog deserves. King is a calm, laid-back companion who enjoys a quiet environment. He is house-trained, independent, and tends to be more of a loner than a social butterfly. His favorite activities include relaxing indoors, taking leisurely walks, and sitting outside on sunny days. King has some skin issues that developed as a side effect of medication, so his coat is kept short to help keep him comfortable. He would do best with someone who appreciates a gentle, low-maintenance companion and can provide a peaceful home where he can enjoy his golden years. He is relaxed, well mannered, and can be won over with treats and rubs.

Story
I have two shorkies that I unfortunately need to rehome as I had to place my husband in a nursing home and sold my house. The only affordable apartment I could find does not allow pets. Yogi is 14 years young and he loves to cuddle and eat! He is mostly deaf and his vision is not the best, but he is so lovable and easy to care for. I give him eye drops daily but he does not require any other medication. He is pee pad trained but also enjoys being outside and will potty out there as well. I’m not willing to separate him from his sister, Boo-boo, as they have been together their whole lives!
