THANK YOU ALL FOR SHARING AND APPLYING FOR NOEL! She has found her forever home

How could anyone resist that smile!

Meet Noel!

She was found all alone in the cold and no owner has stepped up to claim her. She is around 2-3 years old and weighs 10lbs. She has done well with everyone she meets including other dogs. She is a bit unsure of kids under the age of 5, meaning she would need time to warm up to their actions and loudness at times. We do recommend her being adopted by someone who does not have toddlers in the home simply because we do not have the resources to fully test her in a home with toddlers.

Noel will be fully vetted including, Spay, all Vaccines including Rabies, Dewormed, Heartworm Tested, Placed on Monthly Preventatives as well as microchipped. (Her Vet Appointment is on 12/17)

If you are interested in meeting Noel please complete our adoption application

Meet and greets will be scheduled for approved adopters.

REDUCED ADOPTION FEE $100.00 FOR APPROVED APPLICANTS UNTIL 2-31-25

The first rabies case in a dog in nearly 7 years in Missouri was recently confirmed in mid-November.
According to the McDonald County Health Department, lab testing from the Missouri State Public Health Laboratory confirmed a dog had recently been exposed to rabies.
The health department stated the dog was likely exposed in the northwest area of McDonald County, possibly from an exposure to a skunk.
The confirmation marks the first case of rabies in a dog in Missouri in nearly 7 years, according to data made available by the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS).
In 2025, one rabies exposure in a cat was confirmed in Missouri in Howell County.
The dashboard shows bats, cats, cows, dogs, foxes, horses, raccoons, rodents, rabbits, skunks and other domestic and wild animals are often tested for rabies in Missouri.
As of the latest update on the dashboard in 2025, a total of 2,076 rabies tests had been conducted on several different animals in the state, resulting in 31 confirmed cases of rabies, including 24 bats and 5 skunks in addition to the one cat and one dog.
In the last ten years, Missouri has averaged about 24 cases of rabies per year among animals.
The McDonald County Health Department posted the following facts about rabies:

• 90% of rabies cases occur in wildlife (bats, raccoons, skunks, foxes).
• Incubation in pets is typically 3 to 12 weeks.
• Early signs are sudden behavioral changes and unexplained progressive paralysis.
• Later stage signs are aggression, biting, paralysis, excessive drooling, difficulty swallowing.

The department also provided these tips for people to protect their animals and family:

• Keep domestic animals vaccinated.
• Avoid contact with wild animals.
• Report suspicious animal behavior to local authorities
