Meet Carmella, a 1 year old Chihuahua mix. Carmella is a beautiful girl that weighs in right at 8 lbs.Due to her small size, she would probably do best in a home with older kiddos. She is house and crate trained and likes to make friends with other dogs. Carmella is a very loving lady, that will quickly bond with her human and would make an excellent companion for someone looking for a lap dog.  

If you are interested in meeting Carmella, 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.

Carmella’s adoption fee is $250.00, 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.
