Benji - Adopted

/

Benji is a 50/25/25 mix of Shih Tzu, Border Collie, and Australian Cattledog. He weighs about 45 pounds and is roughly almost 10 years old, his estimated "birthday" on 2/24/13. While his early life is somewhat of a mystery, Benji is quite a unique-looking dog with plenty of energy, character, and always the willingness to perform a trick for a treat! He is quite playful, but he also loves to snuggle on the couch for a movie. Benji currently lives with young children who have been coached on proper etiquette with how to interact with dogs, and he plays well with them. He also plays with several dogs his size in the neighborhood without issue. Benji would do well in any yard that has space to run freely and does respect boundaries.

Roxy-Adoption Pending

Roxy DOB 1/8/2010 Female Pitbull Mix

Roxy is a very sweet senior girl. She was returned because she was nipping at the children but we have not been able to replicate the same results. She loves chasing the tennis balls and snuggling with people. She was an only dog her whole life and we have found that she is not fond of other dogs now because of it. She does not have any known health issues at this time.

Roxy is a sweet girl who would love a family to call her own for what ever time she may have left, which at her current activity level and health could be as much as 3-5 yrs.

Remi DOB 8/5/2008 Pug Mix

Remi is a fun loving, affectionate girl but she does not like to share her people or possessions so she would prefer to be an only dog. She is a senior girl but has no current health issues. So many senior dogs are abandoned at Animal Control facilities just because they are old… Remi is a great dog and would just like a little bed in someone’s loving home and someone to share kisses and hugs with.

Sheldon - Adoption Pending

/

Sheldon is an 8 yr old male Border Collie/Lab Mix. Hope received a call from Animal Control regarding a dog that they had just picked up who had been hit by a car and needed immediate medical care. Hope responded and rushed Sheldon to a Specialty care hospital in St. Louis where he received the very best of care… Sheldon’s previous owner was never found so now he is looking for a Forever Family to call his very own. He is ok with other dogs but has not engaged in play or rough-housing. He prefers to sit back and just enjoy the scenery.

Patsy II

Patsy is a super sweet 8 year old mix breed dog. She is adorable in person, seems to be okay with other dogs but do best in a home with no other dogs. She loves kids and adults, is house trained and always has a smile to show off. She is the perfect age, past the chewing stage, past the chasing stage, past the ADHD stage and really listens well. Patsy weighs 72 lbs. She would do best with a dog with the same light activity nature.

Chloe DOB 11/23/2010 Female, American Staffordshire Terrier

Chloe is an amazing girl.. She is big, approximately 70 lbs , she likes walks on nature trails, belly rubs and playing tug of war. She will need a strong family with no small children - not because she is aggressive but because she is so large and so strong. She walks well on a leash, loves people but would best be suited to be the only pet.

Dory - Adopted

Dory - DOB 7/30/2011

Okay, first and most importantly, look how stinkin' cute my ears are! My name is Dory, I'm a Blue Pittie gal that was approx born in July of 2011, and I love all people including kids! I came to the sanctuary with my sister, Jewell, because my first family had domestic violence issues and called some people to confiscate us because our first home was so bad. The people that took us almost had to euthanize us, but Hope Animal Rescues took us for a car ride to come to the sanctuary just in time! I've been here for a while, but I think that's only because my sister and I wanted to go to the same home; I loved her so much! My sister passed away at the beginning of 2023 and I was sad, but the people here are giving me more lovin's than I usually get, and they made it all better. I'm still not sure how it's possible to get MORE lovin's than I did before; I got lovin's a lot! A long time ago, in 2019, I had a rectal tumor removed and they biopsied it and said it was Colorectal Adenocarcinoma. They got it out super quick and I haven't had any problem since! I'm back to being the happy girl I always was and I'm ready to take naps on the couch, in my own home, with my very own family. My favorite thing is food time! You should see me gallop around before I sit and they pour my food in the bowl! When I have an itch I get all wound up, lay on my back, and then fail around like a fish out of water and my people friends always laugh. Laying on top of you to cuddle and get pet is ALWAYS a good day. I get along with dogs, but I prefer if they don't try to rough-house with me. I've always been nice to the cat I met, but she isn't a fan that I run after her; I'm getting much better with this though. Oh, and before I go, I want to let you in on a little secret! When it's not even that cold outside, I pretend I'm shivvering after I go potty so they let me back in right away. I get called dramatic, but I sure have these people trained! I'm a super easy-going gal, so come meet me if you have something soft for me to lay on at home! to date.
