Mr. Tumness was formerly used by a breeder and spent most of his life in a kennel. He is learning how to be a dog. He quickly became very affectionate in his foster home and strongly dislikes being alone. We will require that he is in a home with another dog to help boost his confidence as he is continuing to learn how to be in a home. He has never walked on a leash so a secure fully fenced in yard is required . He will not use stairs but he can be carried up and down stairs. He is still learning how to potty outside and we suggest using potty pads in between going outside. 

If you are interested, 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. Mr. Tumness’s adoption fee is $195.00, 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.
