Story
Looking for a little shadow with a big heart? Meet Oreo, a 3-year-old, 11-pound Shih Tzu mix who's ready to become someone's devoted best friend.Oreo is quiet, laid-back, and incredibly affectionate. He may need a little time to adjust to a new home and routine, but once he settles in, he'll happily become part of the family. Whether you're relaxing on the couch, working around the house, or spending time with loved ones, Oreo simply wants to be included.He gets along well with other small dogs his size and enjoys their company. Oreo would thrive in a home where he's involved in everyday family life with people who enjoy having their furry companion by their side. While he loves people, we're looking for a home without young children.A securely fenced yard would be wonderful, but Oreo would also be perfectly happy with regular leash walks. He is not a dog who should spend long hours in a crate. Having previously spent far too much time confined, Oreo is happiest when he's with his people. He will also need a patient family willing to help him continue learning a consistent potty routine, as he is adjusting to life outside of the crate.Oreo is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, had a dental, microchipped, heartworm negative, and on monthly heartworm prevention. Oreo's adoption fee is $375

Story
“Will you PLEASE play ball with me!?” To aply: YOU MUST BE ABLE TO ABIDE BY THE ABOVE REQUEST. Macie is a beautiful nine year old female Shih Tzu that has come into rescue because of unplanned life changes in the environment where she lived her entire life since she was a puppy. Macie is a polite, mindful (well sometimes just a bit bossy), and well trained little girl who is looking for a home where she can settle into the second part of her life journey. She is healthy, up to date on vaccines, spayed, and microchipped. Macie will do best in a home without young children and other dogs. Beyond that, Macie wants to have a family where she is not alone for more than a few of hours at a time. She is not used to being in a home where she is left alone for longer work shift situations. She is a perfect fit for a “work from home” or retired family member situation. IF you meet the above criteria and you are willing to constantly be fishing her ball out from under the couch, then this is your girl. She will steal your heart the instant you meet her. She’s waiting to train you! If you are interested in adopting, click on the link below and complete an application. https://form.jotform.com/81416621100138

Story
Walter may be a little shy and unsure at first, but give him some patience, love, and reassurance, and you’ll get to see his sweet personality blossom. Once he knows he’s safe, this little guy is happiest curled up beside his person, enjoying a cozy nap and simply being close to someone he loves. Walter is kennel trained and does well with other dogs, cats, and kids. He’s a gentle little guy who doesn’t ask for much—just a safe place to land and someone who will love him unconditionally. Just look at that sweet face… you can almost see him hoping that his person is out there. Walter deserves a family who will give him the time and love he needs to feel safe, and in return, he’ll give them his whole heart. Local adoption fee together is $400 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee together is $700 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Sweet senior Jack is waiting for his special someone. Jack is 12 yo and weighs 15lbs. Jack is accepting applications for a home that would be complete with a special needs pup 🐶 When Jack came to ITMD, we learned that he would need his eyes removed to be free from persistent pain from his Glaucoma. Jack has adjusted beautifully, and is getting on with the very important business of being a dog 🐾 Jack is an easy-going guy. Some of Jack's favorite things include soft beds, a yummy meal, walking around the yard and sniffing all the smells, and just being with his human. He gets along well with other dogs, and all people. Jacks ideal home would have a fenced yard, another dog friend and his people who are not gone for long periods of time. Jack would love to find his forever home with someone who is willing to give him the chance he deserves ❤️ Jack is being fostered in the New Haven Mo area, his adoption fee is $200.

Story
Meet Endora – A Gentle Girl with a Love for Soft Things 📍 Located in Troy, MO 💻 Applications at leiashope.org Endora is a little lady learning what it's like to live in freedom after spending her early life in a puppy mill. She’s shy at first, but once she warms up, she politely asks for affection and enjoys quiet companionship. Her foster has established a mealtime routine that works perfectly for her—when she hears the call, Endora happily runs upstairs to the bedroom where her bowl is placed just inside the door. This quiet, uninterrupted space is where she feels most comfortable eating. She has a healthy appetite, is a good eater, and is currently on Adult Fromm which she eats twice a day. Endora is a big fan of soft comforts—she loves her open-door kennel filled with fluffy blankets and can often be found lounging in cozy dog beds. After spending her early life on a hard kennel floor, she’s finally learning what comfort feels like. She gets along well with other dogs and is watching them closely to learn how to play and enjoy toys. With a little more time and encouragement, she’ll be joining in on the fun! 📝 Requirements: Secure physical fenced yard Another young, confident dog in the home No children under 12 Mill dogs like Endora are under-socialized and easily startled by things we take for granted—leashes, television sounds, garbage trucks, kitchen appliances, etc. She will need a patient and understanding home willing to help her continue adjusting at her own pace. 🐾 Endora is spayed, microchipped, current on vaccinations, and on monthly flea and heartworm prevention. 💲 Adoption fee: $400 📍 Located in Troy, MO 💻 Applications at leiashope.org Please Note: Leia’s Hope is a volunteer-run rescue. Application processing takes 7–10 business days depending on our availability and your references. All dogs are in foster homes—there is no central facility. Meet and greets are scheduled only after an approved application. We do not ship or transport. Adopters must travel to the dog’s location, and all family members and current pets must be present. Dogs are a lifetime commitment. Puppies, in particular, may live 15+ years. If you're not prepared to commit to that, please do not apply. Puppies under 9 months must go to a home where someone is frequently home, can provide proper training and socialization, and keep up with their energy and needs.
