Hello - my name is Cassius and I'm a shepherd mix. I love to run and play and my foster mom
tells me I float like a butterfly, especially when I run because I'm so elegant because of my long legs!
I have a lot energy, and I would love to be taken on walks at least once a day, and I love going to a dog park. After an introduction, I play very well with other dogs - did I mention that I love to wrestle?
I'm great with kids! I've played with older kids, and I would probably do best with them because I'm a bit unaware of how big and strong I am. I like to get on laps when I'm invited, and I absolutely love getting my chin scratched!
That's a good way to get a peek into my beautiful eyes! I promise, I'm gentle and won't hurt you!
My foster parents say I'm brilliant and will learn whatever I'm taught quickly, including good leash manners. I currently know "shake" and "sit." I also sleep in my crate overnight like a good boy and am doing well going potty outside in my yard.
I'm not sure how I feel about cats or small animals like rabbits - I'm very curious, but I haven't had a chance to get very close to any.
I would love to find my forever family to love and go on adventures with! If that could be you, visit istodaymydayrescue.org to fill out an application! Because of generous donations, my adoption fee is $100.

Additional adoption info
We want to make this easy and we want to be sure that the dog you are interested in is a fit for you. Finding a dog or pup that works with your schedule and lifestyle is key to our placement. The questions on the application help us know if the dog you choose will do well in your home. Number of hours your dog is home alone, fenced yard, exercise plan, other family members – pets included; those are important things we want to discuss with you and your chosen canine. We do require a vet reference.
The application is on our website: Istodaymydayrescue.org. Complete and send. You can expect a reply within 24-48 hours. As all of our dogs are in foster care, we will then contact the foster home and arrange a meeting. The foster home might want to do a home visit or you might meet at a convenient location. If it is a good fit, some adoptions can be completed at that time of the meeting.
All of our dogs are spayed or neutered prior to adoption. All of our dogs are micro chipped, wormed, heartworm tested if over 6 months, on heartworm preventative, treated for fleas, and have age appropriate vaccines. Pups under 16 weeks require ongoing vaccines every 2 to 3 weeks.

More about this rescue
“Is today my day?” That is what every shelter dog asks. “Is today the day that I find a home, get a family, discover that I am a best friend”? We want to tell those dogs: “Yes, it is!”
We are a foster based rescue who aims to serve south central Missouri, an area with a low human population and a high canine population. Our mission is to help dogs from this area find homes in the St. Louis area through adoptions and transfers. After covering spay/neuter costs, 20% of each adoption fee goes to our emergency medical fund so we can help canine accident victims, pay for emergency C-sections, and other health needs. The remainder of the adoption fee goes to the dogs.
We are foster based and do not have a facility. Moms and pups are our focus, but we will help any dog we can. We are only able to accept a dog when a foster home is available. All dogs and pups are current on vaccines, micro-chipped, heartworm tested, wormed, and treated for fleas and ticks. All dogs over 12 weeks have been altered; if too young for this procedure, a spay/neuter reimbursement is provided when the procedure is done.
