** SPECIAL NEEDS **  LEVEL 4 HEART MURMUR (NO MEDS YET) **  REQUIRES FENCED YARD **  NEEDS A COMPANION DOG ** EXPERIENCE WITH BREEDER TYPE DOGS IS A PLUS **

Meet 'Beans', an 8-1/2 yr old, 12 lb, Chihuahua Mix .  He's considered 'Special Needs' due to his Level 4 Heart Murmur, however, you wouldn't know it since he seems to be a happy little guy. He also has a 'cloudy eye' but still sees okay.

Beans came from a very bad situation that included bitten by tons of fleas and ticks and lost all their hair.  Beans' hair is coming back in quite well as you can see.

He's housebroken and seems to ride well in a car curled up in a bed in the passenger seat.

He is not leash trained so he requires a SECURE FENCED YARD.  Beans is a "climber" so fence should be vinyl or wood since he could climb chainlink.

Beans is also a Very Good Escape Artist and Door Darter whenever door is open. 

He will need a companion dog in the home to help him continue to thrive to be a great dog.

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.
