Moonshine, the skinny, yellow stray (turned white after a bath) who we got from a KY shelter has found his forever home. Not only is his new family appreciative and understanding of his Aussie ways, he now has a double merle brother, Django. After rescuing Django and discovering all the joy a special needs dog brought to their lives, they knew they wanted to help another! Thankfully, they found our Moonshine! <3
Rafiki (now Zuko) has officially been adopted by his foster family! He's such a great addition to an already great family. Zuko is deaf and vision impaired as a result of careless breeding.

Speak! St. Louis would like to announce our handsome tripawd, Reggie, is in his forever home! We would also like to thank Petfinder Foundation for the $1000 Emergency Medical grant we received in order to help with Reggie's medical costs and surgery. The Petfinder Foundation Emergency Medical grant program is used to assist Petfinder members who are caring for a pet like Reggie that needs special life-saving veterinary care in order to become adoptable. <br /> <br /> The Petfinder.com Foundation assists the 12,000+ animal shelters and rescue groups that post their adoptable pets on Petfinder.com. A nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization, the Petfinder Foundation helps adoption organizations find homes for the pets in their care through its Sponsor A Pet, Disaster Fund, Quality of Life and other programs. Since its founding in 2003, the Petfinder Foundation has given more than $20 million in cash and product grants to shelters and rescue groups in the United States, Canada and Mexico.<br /> Speak! St. Louis posts its adoptable pets at www.petfinder.com/shelters/IL871.html.

It's official! So great to be able to share some happily ever after tails today, but this one can't be shared without tears, because no one ever thought Matches would ever have his own forever home, not to mention what a dream home it is with acreage, 2 ponds, a Border Collie sister, and parents with the hugest hearts imaginable!<br /> Matches had been through two rescues and when Speak St. Louis was formed, Matches came on-board. He has had a toe amputation, fought multiple infections, undergone heartworm treatment, and seen many specialists for the lameness in his leg and his licking. Matches' new foster family lost their beloved Border Collie and wanted to help another. They looked past the huge file of medical records and the bum leg and saw the sweetest soul sent specially to them.<br /> Matches is now home to stay and there is no dog more deserving as he's been through so much and waited so long. This is stuff dreams are made of! Happy tails Matches!!!
