Waldo was adopted 8/11/11!
Waldo is a very lovable blue merle Mini-Aussie with one blue and one brown eye. He weighs 30 pounds but is very thin from being on the run for a while. Found as a stray in Cuba, MO, our vet estimates Waldo to be about 2 years old. Waldo is quite the snuggler! He loves to sit next to you on the couch. He is very friendly and gets along well with other dogs. We don’t know about cats but Waldo loves to go up to kids in the neighborhood so he is fine with kids – and walks well on a leash. He must not have had toys in his previous life so we are teaching him about balls and chew toys. Waldo gets very nervous during thunderstorms and fireworks – not destructive, he just wants to be near you during the noise. He is housebroken, UTD on shots, heartworm negative and was just neutered so he is all ready to go to his new forever home.

Travis was adopted 7/30/11!

Travis – 3 year old black bi neutered male, UTD on shots, HW negative, microchipped, housebroken. Travis was picked up as a stray in Kentucky and no one came looking for him. It is very evident that he was someone’s house pet. He knows sit and shake, walks well on leash and has immaculate house manners. He loves kids, has never met a stranger, is good with cats and female dogs. Travis is NOT good with other males so needs to be placed in a home as an only dog or with female dogs only. It amazes us that Travis’ former owners were not looking for him – he has been loved and cared for in his past life and it most certainly shows!

Lulu was adopted 8/21/11!
Lulu – Anatolian Shepherd mix – approximately 10 months old, spayed, microchipped, housebroken, crate trained.
This wonderful girl was dumped and found her way to one of our foster homes – she is a very happy girl with a fun personality – along with being big & beautiful – our vet thinks she will be around 100 lbs at maturity. Don’t let her size deter you – she is a “gentle giant” around the toddler at her foster home. She gets along well with other dogs and absolutely LOVES children. Lulu rarely barks and two of her favorite things are snuggling and getting petted. Whoever adopts this gem will never regret it!

Radar – 8 month old black tri neutered male, UTD on shots, housebroken, HW negative, crate trained. Radar was surrendered to rescue because he owner was moving and couldn’t find a place she could afford that would let her bring a dog. Radar is a big, happy puppy who has yet to meet a stranger. He is very active and still very much a puppy. He is probably going to be at least 60 lbs when he’s all grown up. Radar is good with children and other dogs, we do not know about cats. He is great in his crate!

Macy was adopted 8/11/11!
Macy – 4 year old black tri female – spayed, UTD on shots, HW negative, crate trained, housebroken, microchipped. Macey was turned into rescue because her family had a baby and no longer had the time for her. She is a very sweet girl who is afraid of some men but was very good with her former owner. We haven’t figured out what triggers her fear with some men, but she will warm up to them if they are patient with her. She is very good with other dogs and children and is interested in cats, but not ugly with them. She has a sweet temperment and would probably be best in a home with only women or at least a low key man.

Milo was adopted 7-27-11!

Milo is a 9 month old “Rattle” (Rat Terrier/Poodle) who weighs in at 7lbs. Milo
was purchased by a teenager for his girlfriend. When the girlfriend broke-up
with the guy, Milo was sentenced to stay in the garage with no windows or A/C
because his parents didn’t want a puppy messing in the house. Now happily in a
foster home this smart puppy has quickly learned to go in his crate, walk on a
leash and is trying to catch up on house training. He is a bit shy around men
but LOVES the ladies. When you come home he literally leaps into your arms and
proceeds with a full on kiss attack. He’s energetic, playful and cuddly. Adores
kids, annoys cats on occasion and plays well with the much larger dogs in the
house. He is also good on car rides. He is neutered, chipped and up to date on
shots.

Rock-It is a 2 ½ year old Portuguese Water Dog.  Rock-It is current on shots and is neutered.  Rock-It is wonderful dog, LOVES people, LOVES other dogs, acts like an Aussie temperament wise.  He is 100% house trained, can go in a crate or can be loose 24/7 and will never tear up anything.  Rock-It gets groomed once a month, does not shed.  It is with great sadness that he needs to find a new home.  His owner is getting senile and is no longer able to properly care for Rock-It.  Thus, the family wants the best for Rock-It and wants to place him in a home where he is loved and where he can get all the attention he can stand.  He loves to sleep in bed, loves car rides.  He is PERFECT in every way!!!!
To learn more about Rock-It please contact Anne.

Cody was adopted 5/27/2011!

Cody, red merle male, approximately 18 months old, UTD on shots, microchipped, crate trained, housebroken.  Cody was picked up as a stray in southern Missouri and brought into rescue several months ago.  Poor boy was malnourished and heartworm positive so he has nursed back to health and is now ready for a family of his own.  Cody absolutely LOVES everyone – we are sure there must be some golden retriever in his ancestry!  He is an active boy that would be a wonderful jogging or hiking partner.  He would also probably be too exuberant for small children but kids over 10 year would have a ball with him.  This beautiful boy is a sweetheart ready to settle in with a family of his own!
