Story
Little 20lb mini/toy Australian Shepherd Pepper came to us after rescue friends saved her from a breeder auction to prevent her from having to spend her little life making profits for another breeder! She was pregnant at the time (not known by rescuers) and had her very last litter on 8/9/2024 of 5 little boys! They all are spoken for and now it is momma's turn to find the best forever, loving family :) She is a sweet girl and can be a bit shy at first but warms up quickly. She does well with other dogs and doesn't seem bothered by our cats here. She has not been around young humans so we believe a home without kiddos under teenage years would be the best for her. She does not like being kenneled, but does fine as long as she knows no one is around to let her out.  ##2240671##

Story
Meet Lily Jo, a beautiful almost 2-year-old, 40-pound Aussie mix whose soft white fur and warm tan markings make her as unique and lovable as her personality! This sweet girl loves attention but is just as content lounging around and quietly enjoying the day. A sun-loving pup, Lily Jo adores lazy afternoons soaking up rays, belly rubs, and the joy of a good bone. She’s also a chatterbox who loves to “talk” to you and play with her toys. Lily Jo’s easygoing nature shines through as she befriends both humans and dogs of all sizes. With medium energy levels, she strikes the perfect balance between an active lifestyle and moments of calm relaxation. She’s great with other dogs, housebroken, crate trained, and eager to please as she fine-tunes her house manners after growing up outside. Her food motivation and eagerness to learn make her a quick and delightful student. While Lily Jo isn’t a fan of cats and needs a home without them, she thrives in an environment with a fenced-in yard where she can run and play. Are you ready to welcome a loving, loyal, and playful friend into your family? Lily Jo is waiting to fill your life with joy—adopt her today! She has gone through the Puppies for Parole program and knows many commands and other tricks.

Story
Meet TJ Tucker, this boy is a very handsome Australian Shepherd and weighs 42 lbs. He just turned 6 yrs old and was living on a chain his whole life. They say dogs live in the now and don't dwell on the past and he is proof. He is so sweet and loves the attention he is getting now.  He responds to Tucker and comes when you say his name. He know sit and stay.  He likes to bolt out when the door is open so we started making him sit and stay until he was released - we also did this when getting out of the car and going for walks.  And he listens really well.  *He loves running in the yard, especially with other dogs or with his people. *He loves car rides and going for walks.  He loves being with his people *He loves snuggling on the couch and sleeping in bed with us and loves belly rubs.   *He is housetrained but did start marking when my older dog/breeder fosters had accidents in the kitchen - so we started using a belly band just for a bit.  *He is very eager to please his people and loves attention. *He lived with 5 cats and was fine around them. *He was fine with most dogs, especially the laid back submissive ones. 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. TJ Tucker’s adoption fee is $275.00, which includes up-to-date vaccinations, heartworm testing and preventative, spay/neuter and microchip.
