Story
    Hi!  My name is Peanut.  I am said to be around 2-years old and a mixed breed of Australian Shepherd and Lab / Retriever.   I came to rescue after being dropped off at the shelter in early January 2025, I came to rescue in early November and LOVE my family and other dogs in the home……most of all, I love my soft bed to sleep on.  When not playing with the other dogs, I like to sit next to my foster mom while she works and talks to herself at the computer.  When my foster parents leave or it’s time for bed, I am crated.  I love to go for walks or just run and play outside, but now that it has gotten colder, I prefer to go out and do my business and come back inside where it is warm.   My foster is working on teaching me better leash manners, when we first get started walking I like to try to go fast and smell all the smells and pull on the leash, but once I get settled I just enjoy the time walking.    I am looking for a family of my own that likes bigger dogs (I am 67-pounds), enjoys some time outside, likes car rides.   Fascinated by the resident cat, but the cat has its own “safe space” so injustice watch her from the other side of the gate. So now with the not so good stuff that can be scary, if you read too much online.   I am heart worm positive, I have started the meds and treatment is paid for by the rescue.   This isn’t my fault, but something that needs to be cared for so I can live a long life with my forever family. My adoption fee is $200.  So far I have been neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.   I will also be heartwon treated    December 17, 2025, 9:06 am

Story
Dharma is a sweet 11-week-old male Aussie/Shepherd mix.  He is a fun-loving puppy who enjoys playing with his sibling and exploring the back yard.  Dharma is doing very well with his crate training and is working hard on his potty training.  He is a pro and going up and down carpeted stairs. He loves attention from his humans but is content to play with toys.  He's even been known to play fetch with his favorite toy.  Dharma is treat motivated so he should be easy to train.  He is picking up commands such as sit, come & of course learning what no means.   He has been neutered, microchipped and has had 2 rounds of vaccinations.   H e will make someone a great addition to their family.   If interested, please  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. Our $295 adoption fee 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.
