My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Meet Lightning McQueen!

This is your complete love bug wrapped up burrito style in a very handsome guy!

LMQ LOVES his people and is fantastic with littles. Little foster girls are under 5 and they are besties. This good boi is great with other dogs; prefers the calmer furry friends. He has not been around cats but probably should steer clear from them as his prey drives suggests this. But, that is ok! Kids and dogs are a big deal. :) LMQ knows basic commands, eager to please and very food motivated. Edit to add, purses are not off limits when goodies are hiding in there. Conclusion is he is great at seek and find and likes the finer, organic kid treats. LOL!

The young man is crate trained and potty trained. When left out he will leave your home as is and not disturb a thing unless its a tastey on the counter. But, I might steal a treat as well, especially if they smell good. An active family would be the very best scenario for LMQ. He loves attention as well as giving it. He does require a 6ft fence or responsible pet parent on the other end of a very long leased/leash.

hhpr.rescuegroups.org for the required application. $275 adoption fee

Additional adoption info

We charge very small fees for our adoptions. The fees are based on the age and life expectancy of the dog. They range from $100-250. Each dog comes altered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, with heartguard and flea/tick prevention of our choosing.
We require an application and conversation. We will do a home visit to make sure the home is appropriate and safe for our dog. We will check vet and personal references.
We request a signed document that the dog be returned to the rescue and not taken to a shelter should it not be a fit later on after the adoption.

Go meet their pets

We do events at Petsmart in Sunset Hills. We have our dogs out and about the first and third Saturdays of each month. The interested Families may, also, meet the dog(s) at any schedule, convenient time coordinated with all parties.

More about this rescue

My name is Carla. I am the founder of the organization, opened July 3, 2015. Our focus is the senior dogs of Missouri. We never want a frosted face to end up in a shelter or be there when they can be loved and cared for.
I was a geriatric nurse for several years and converted my love for the senior people to the senior dogs. They come first, they've given their lives to those that chose them. It is our duty to give them the best that they deserve. We get them to optimum health and adoptable for a family to love them in their golden years.
November 2017 we added a puppy division. Our puppy division works hard to make sure the puppies get out of the shelters immediately so they do not get sick and can be cared for until adopted. their innocence and pure curiosity bring a ray of sunshine to our rescue.
All of our adoptable dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and healthy.
