** DO BEST WITH FENCED YARD **

Skittles is a 16 month old, 45 lb love bug!   She is happiest when she is getting all the skritches and bully rubs!  

Skittles was born outside and lived there until she was rescued.  We are not sure what breeds she may be, especially with her naturally docked tail!  
 
Her whole booty wiggles when she wags!
Skittles is dog and cat friendly. She is potty trained and does great when left alone uncrated.
 
She is a bit shy when first meeting new scenarios, but warms up within a bit. Skittles has a new found love for toys and likes them all!  She gets so excited, she wants to play with them all. She enjoys taking every toy and putting it into in her bed for safe keeping!  
 
Skittles would do best with a fenced yard, as she is still learning what a leash is and gets easily scared with new things.  She relies on her people to give her the comfort and confidence when encountering new things!

 

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.

Skittles’s adoption fee is $275.00, 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.
