Meet little Ruthie!! She's an adorable one year old Chihuahua mix, weighing about 10 pounds. She came to us from a rural shelter where she was surrendered by her owner. Ruthie is very happy, friendly, playful, sweet as can be, and LOVES sharing kisses. Because of her small size, she would do best in a home without small children or large dogs. Ruthie requires a secured fence yard, and would also enjoy a small playful dog as a companion. Ruthie is healthy, current on her immunizations, spayed, and has been microchipped.

If you are interested in meeting Ruthie, 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.

Ruthie’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.
