Karis's Story

Karis is hoping a little Luck of the Irish will guide her to her forever family. At just 4 months old (born 10/13/25) and a bit over 20 pounds, she’s the perfect mix of playful puppy and sweet snuggler. She gets along wonderfully with both large and small dogs, and with proper introductions, she’d likely do well with cats too.<br/><br/>She’s crate trained and almost fully potty trained, though she’ll benefit from continued consistency as she settles into a new home. Karis loves curling up next to her foster mom during TV time or hanging out with the resident dog while chewing on bones. She’s even been allowed to sleep in the human bed—and she’s been an absolute dream.<br/><br/>This little girl is ready to bring joy, cuddles, and a whole lot of heart to her new family.<br/><br/>If interested, please<br/>complete the<br/>Adoption Application<br/>on our website at<br/>www.NeedyPaws.org<br/>and we will contact you.<br/>Adopters must live within an hour’s drive of St. Louis, MO.<br/><br/>Our $295 adoption fee includes up-to-date vaccinations, heartworm testing and preventative, spay/neuter and microchip.<br/><br/>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.
