Meet Sonny & Cher. they are darling little babies right around 6 weeks old as of 8/20/08. They will NOT be ready to be placed until at least the end of September to middle of October as they need to be large enough to be fixed & have all shots prior to being adopted.
They are male & female. Sonny, the male, is smaller than Cher at this time, however as they grow, that may change. Both are just as cute as can be & we are beginning to accept applications for them, a decision for their placement will not be made until they are closer to being placed. They will not be placed until they are older & have been altered & shots current.
Since the pups only had each other at such a young age (approximately 4 weeks), they will not be separated, but adopted as a pair.

If you would like to place an application to be considered for the adoption of the pups, please click on the link below.
Due to having treated several heartworm positive dogs recently, we DO require past proof of h/w tests & preventative given if you own a dog. We do NOT consider it proof if you have just had the h/w test done or bought preventative for the first time prior to or after putting in an application.
Out of the Area? We will gladly do a "long distance" adoption, however we do not ship our dogs. We expect you to come and pick up your dog. As all our dogs are in foster homes in different places, that would mean you would need to travel to the foster home to pick up the dog (not necessarily in St Louis). Sonny & Cher are fostered 6 hours from St. Louis in southeastern Kansas. Family members or friends are not allowed to pick up the dog unless the adopter is with them. We will not consider an adoption out of area without a vet and groomer reference.

We do not place dogs in homes with toddlers and babies. Please read the shelter home page for placement restrictions prior to submitting an application. Our group does have a policy of only placing dogs in homes where all pets are spayed or neutered.
Our Adoption fees are based on the age of the dog and range from $350 to $200 each, and are used to pay the vet expenses. All dogs are up to date on shots, heartworm negative, spayed or neutered and any known problems are treated before they can be adopted. Last year our vet bills were $3000. higher than our adoption fees, so we are not able to adopt dogs without an adoption fee.
