Pets Ready For Adoption

Pets are available for adoption through All Paws Rescue, an O'Fallon based volunteer group working to save homeless dogs and cats.  All pets are kept in foster homes, where they receive the care they need to help prepare them for a permanent home. 

All Paws is supported solely by private donations and fundraisers.  If you're interested in adopting an animal, you can browse their website or attend one of their weekend adoption events at area stores. Last year they adopted out close to 300 pets. 

This week's featured pets:

Dog: Penelopie is a three-year-old tan chihuahua with white front paws. She was recently rescued from a puppy mill here in Missouri.  All Paws volunteers say Penelopie has a great personality but is still very shy.  She will need extra time and attention to adjust to her new home. Volunteers are working on housebreaking and say she is doing very well. She does great with other dogs, cats and children.  She has been spayed, vaccinated, microchipped and tested negative for heartworms.
