My story

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

"RAJA" Out Little Sweet Lamb!

Meet Raja, a 12 yr old, 13 lb, male, Bichon Poodle Mix.

He's such a Sweetheart! He loves his people; naps in recliner with foster dad but follows his foster mom around the house and lays in between them in bed. He gets along with other dogs and cats too!!

He's housebroken but due to his age, needs to go out throughout the day.

He would like a fenced yard to wander around but does well on leash. He is Leash Trained.

Don't let being 12 yr old fool you! Raja is a moderately active Senior Guy!

He lays around a lot, he's a retired guy!, but will whine or bark to get your attention or to go out! See the video posted on here.

One other thing: he's like a Mountain Goat! He lays on back of sofa to look out of "Nature's Window", and he will climb on chairs and even "table surfs" but will lay on top of table to surprise you to watch you cook! AHHHH!!

His previous parents could no longer care for him so he's looking for another family who will love him forever!

If you are interested, complete the Adoption Application on our website at www.NeedyPaws.org and we will contact you. Adopters must live within an hour’s drive of St. Louis, MO.

Raja’s adoption fee is $175.00, which includes up-to-date vaccinations, heartworm testing and preventative, spay/neuter and microchip.

We are a 100% foster-based rescue and all of our dogs live in approved foster homes. We are dedicated to finding the best Forever Homes, and will perform home visits and conduct veterinarian and reference checks for each potential adopter.

More about this rescue

Needy Paws Rescue, located in St. Louis, MO, is devoted to saving animals in need, whose lives are in danger at high kill animal shelters & animal controls, those who are strays, have been abandoned or whose family has faced an extreme emergency, regardless of their size or breed.

Our organization is made up of Volunteers who have been involved in various animal rescues in the St. Louis area and we plan to use our knowledge & experience to make a difference. We believe spaying & neutering is a very important step in keeping pets healthy & happy, plus it helps decrease overpopulation. All of our rescued animals will be spayed or neutered, they will be microchipped to ensure they are identifiable if lost or stolen and they will be current on all of their vaccinations before going to their Forever Homes.

We are foster-based and all pets stay in approved Foster Homes that have passed inspections, reference checks and are qualified to take care of our rescued animals while they wait for their Forever Family. We are dedicated to finding the best Forever Homes, and will be making home visits and conducting veterinarian checks & reference checks to ensure the pets will have a safe, loving, happy home. Forever Families will be taught how to care for their pet and learn how to get the most out of their relationship with their new family member. We also have an after-care specialist who will be in contact with the families after the adoption to see how well they're doing together
