My story

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

Adopt Lucia!
Meet Lu, a 5-6 mo old Doodle mix who's ready for her forever home! We were told she is a Poodle/Dalmatian mix. Lu weighs about 25 lbs.
Lu is full of energy and loves a good game of "catch me if you can"-she's faster than you think and smart enough to outmaneuver you! She would love another playful friend in her forever home.
She's also a fan of fetch and can go for hours if you're up for it. After a day of play, she's happy to settle down for some cuddles. Lucia is great with basic commands like sit, down, and waiting patiently for her food. She comes when called and has excellent manners.
She can be a little nervous when first meeting new people. Once she warms up, she adores everyone!
Because of her excitement and energy, she might be a bit too much for small children. Lucia doesn't jump on people, but she does bounce around when she's excited. She's never been crated and has done fine being left out with her foster siblings. She is doing great with potty training and her forever home will need to continue to help her keep up the good work!
If you're looking for an active, loving companion who also enjoys downtime after play, Lu is your girl!
Lucia is being fostered in South County, Missouri.
Adoption Fee: $325

Meet the dog you applied for in a mutual location, at the foster family's home, or your home (depending on each individual circumstance).

5.

If all goes well at your meeting, sign the adoption contract, pay the adoption fee, and take your dog home!

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.
