Beans *Special Needs*

BreedChihuahuaSexMaleSizeSmallAgeAdult

** SPECIAL NEEDS ** Level 4 Heart Murmur ** **REQUIRES FENCED YARD ** 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, he's not on medication. He's housebroken and seems to ride well in a car curled up in a bed in the passenger seat. Not leash trained so he requires a Secure Fence Yard. Beans is a "climber" using rocks/boards to jump up on. He's a Good Escape Artist and Door Darter whenever door is open. He may enjoy a companion dog in the home to help him continue to thrive to be a great dog. At almost 9 yrs old, he's pretty much set in his ways. 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 losing all his hair and he would love to find a family to give him a better life. 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. Bean’s adoption fee is $295.00, 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.
