Show-Me St. Louis Pet of the Week: Bailey

Bailey is approximately a 1 year old lab/shepherd mix. She weighs around 35 pounds.

Bailey was rescued off the street during that bitter cold snap we had a couple weeks ago. She has adjusted so well to living in a house. She is almost housebroken, and is already learning basic commands. She loves her foster dog sisters, and is great with young kids. She was recently introduced to cats and seemed interested but didn't chase them.

Bailey can still be a little shy at first, but give her a minute to sniff you and then she's your best friend. She has a lot of energy and would be a great running/walking partner. Once play time is done, her favorite nap spot is under the coffee table. If you are looking for a sweet, fun-loving dog to add to your family, Bailey is your girl!

Hank needs your help bad

As you all know, I have been riding with PJ over the past year or more on a regular basis. One of the hardest things that I have found in riding with PJ is watching a dog go from happy, friendly and relatively healthy to scared, injured and in poor health. We usually end up pulling them before it goes too far, but today, seeing Hank, I have realized that we let him fall through the cracks. He has always had an eye infection. It never has really gone away, but I am now starting to wonder how much vision he has left. He does well with other dogs, but anytime there is a lady in heat, he comes around bloody and torn apart. Underneath that fur is a bunch of scabs and blood, PJ said after petting him today. Hank used to be the first to run up to us. Now we don't see him as often and he is a little scared of us. I would really like to get this dog off of the streets and get him to good health. He deserves it. If you have a place in your home for him, please email us as soon as possible and we will pull him. I am worried that if it does not happen soon, it is going to be too late for Hank.
