Chestnut

This spunky dude has the personality of a big dog, all packed into a tiny puppy (but don’t tell him that).

He loves toys and won’t hesitate to “borrow” them from his siblings to tuck into his bed.

Chestnut likes to run and play so he would love a family with lots of siblings, with or without fur, he doesn’t mind either way. But he does insist that someone is available to snuggle with after he’s done playing.

He has been working on kennel training, and would do best not being left alone for long periods of time.  

Chestnut is a rat terrier / chihuahua mix puppy and will be on the smaller side, we are guessing about 10 lbs. fully grown.

He is your typical puppy with loads of energy.  He will need a fenced in yard so he can run and play, and do lots of zoomies.  

Of course, he will also need a family to show him how to potty outside and one who will keep working to teach him good manners through positive reinforcement….aka lots of treats!

Oh and maybe some puppy classes so he can meet some new friends.  

If interested, please  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.

Our $250 adoption fee 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.
