Story
Bella came to us from an abuse and neglect situation. She was being kept either in a dark basement in a crate or on a chain in the yard with little room and inadequate shelter. This poor girl even had calloused bed sores on her hind end from being locked up! She has been the sweetest little thing the entire time she has spent with us! She LOVES running around in the bigger fenced in area with all of her dog friends! She gets along with absolutely any dog. It doesn't matter if they're big, small, male, female, nice or grumpy, guaranteed she will love them all! She is great on a leash, kennel trained and house trained. She would do best in a home without cats because if they run she can be a chaser! She is Heartworm positive, we are hoping this wont deter a new loving home from taking this precious girl in. Her adoption fee is $275 and this will include her spay, 1 year Rabies vaccine and a microchip. Please call 618-833-4915 to come see her! Thank you! Are you interested in adopting this pet?

Story
My daughter and her boyfriend rescued this pup from a litter that had been abandoned on The side of the road. They’re now breaking up and moving into places that they cannot bring her with them. She is a sweet girl and needs a good home. They tried to do good but were busy with school and work so they didn’t get to work with her as much as they would have liked so she’s not 100% potty trained. She is wormed and up to date on her shots

Beautiful brindle Susie is a 2 year old gal who needs a good home! Requirements: 1) Must give frequent belly rubs 2) Must accept that Susie Q is likely to love you so much, she becomes a Velcro dog. She is dog selective. Must have meet n greet with your dog. Her adoption fee includes spay, microchip, vaccines, and heartworm free/on prevention. Come meet sweet Susie! She has been here for weeks with NO interest at all. She tends to get too excited when someone is coming to see her, and it can be a little off putting! But when she calms down, she's so, so, so, sooooo loving! In a different environment, she will be a totally different dog. She really needs out of here. Can you be her hero?November 3, 2024, 3:56 pm

Story
Hello, My name is Harrison.Now that my "wheelie" brother from another mother, Luke has found his forever home in Florida, I thought I would see if my people are out there.I'm not one to brag. But, you know, people talk when they think you're not listening. Boy have I heard some things about me! Let me tell you a few:"Harrison is one of the sweetest, most loving dogs I've worked with. He loves to snuggle but is also hell on wheels! (in the best way).""When Harrison is out of his wheels and running around the play yard, he would give Peter Cottontail a run for his money with the way he hops.""Harrison is a lover and very smart. Some of his favorite things are food, outside walks in his chair, food, people, food, attention, food, and the never missing stuffed animal he carries."Now for the boring stuff. November 2022 could have been better for me. I was found in a ditch by a caring soul after being hit by a car. That's when St Francis stepped in to provide my medical care, rehab, and love. Lots of love!!I like most dogs. But, I may be just a tad too interested in cats.Got food? I'll train with you. Remember someone says I was smart. Got kids? I'll play with them. I love little hoomans... As long as I get some exercise. I'm a big boy and without the use of my back legs, I sometimes can't stop once I get going. I could knock little ones down by accident.Got time and patience? This 55 pound, 2-year-old, proud Boxer needs some embarrassing help. You see, I need help to ... ... ... pee n poop. It's not hard to help me. My friends here at St Francis will be happy to teach you, and with practice you'll soon be a pro!I have so much love to give, sometimes I think my heart will explode if I don't get a family of my own. I already have wheels that i LOVE and if you take me home, you get to take those, too.Got questions? Have your people call my people.Can't resist me?
