Shih Tzu DOB 12/18/19 12lbs Neutered/Microchipped UTD on vaccinations Current on flea/heartworm prevention Please read the bio in its ENTIRETY, it will answer most of your questions.

We do not allow shipping & do not transport. You must live within 350 miles from Maryville, IL & able to drive for a meet and greet. We are a 100% foster-based rescue. Applications can be found here on our website. Hershey was a pretty shy boy when he first arrived. He was scared & not sure what the future was going to be. Well, he arrived at his foster home & was greeted by some furry friends who assured him it was going to be fabulous from here on out. He spent the first few weeks just watching. Watching the humans, watching the other dogs, & watching the household activities. Hershey has come a long way and now follows his foster mom everywhere. He will jump up on the recliner so his foster mom will hold him. He lays in the kitchen next to her feet. He loves his foster mom. He is still unsure of his foster dad but is getting better. In his new home, everyone will need to understand Hershey will need time to adjust so you will need patience. Hershey is still not accepting of the harness and leash so he will need a secure physically fenced yard. In time, his family can work on leash training, but it isn’t going to happen any time soon. He is a very good boy that doesn’t need to be crated & is always on his best behavior when his foster family is gone. He is not completely potty trained but taken out often, he doesn't have accidents. Hershey needs a low-key family that will allow him to bloom. He really needs another dog of similar size in the home already. He will lay and snuggle with his foster siblings around the home during the day and he cuddles with his 4 legged siblings on a comfy bed in his human fosters bedroom. Please apply if you have a nice slow-paced home for Hershey to join.

Story
Meet Ron Burgundy. He’s kind of a big deal. This guy is very friendly and outgoing. He is sure to welcome you home with tail wags and a happy dance. Ron loves everyone he meets! He’s great with dogs, cats, kids and all people he meets.   Ron was found as a stray with another small dog in the big St Louis snow storm in January. He was suffering from neglect with a very overgrown and matted coat, he was missing several teeth, and the ones he had left were in bad shape. But his foster mom took him to get groomed (the groomers said he was a very good boy) and he has been to the vet for his teeth. Unfortunately his teeth were in too bad of shape to save. He may have no teeth left, but is feeling so much better now. He will need a home that can continue feeding him wet/soft food and keep up with his grooming regularly.   He is house broken and crate trained, although he has such good house manners he probably doesn’t need a crate. He does occasionally do a little indoor marking, but has mostly stopped since no longer living with an intact male. He can wear a belly band if needed.   Ron would love someone who likes to snuggle on the couch and give him ear rubs. If you have ever wanted a little cloud-like dog to follow you around, Ron is your man! 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. Ron Burgundy’s adoption fee is $275.00, 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.
