Joy is a high-spirited, fun loving girl with tons of energy!  She loves dogs of all shapes and sizes, but prefers not to be around cats.  She can also be the only dog in your life if you have lots of time to spend with her.  She can be vocal at times and would not be suited for apartment living.  Joy needs a fenced yard with a ball to run off some of her boundless energy.  She would do best with older children as she may knock down youngsters playing. 

If you are interested in meeting Joy, 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.

Joy’s adoption fee is $100.00, which 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.
