Dogs for Adoption in Springfield, MO: 30 Dogs Looking for a Home

Angel is a gentle, sweet, easygoing girl with so much love to give. Despite a difficult start marked by neglect and starvation, she still greets people with an open heart. She’s spayed, gaining weight, learning new things, and enjoying time with her pack of friends.

Through everything she endured, Angel was a loving mama. Sadly, only one of her puppies survived. Her little one, Peanut Butter, is also looking for a forever home.

Now it’s Angel’s turn to be cherished. This deserving girl is ready for a loving family who will spoil her with kindness, comfort, and a lifetime of love.

Cayenne has an interesting back story. He was born 6/15/26 in an Amish breeding kennel, then sent to a pet shop via another breeder. The pet shop rejected Cayenne because he was "too big" (he weighs 7 pounds, 10 ounces) and the breeder then consigned him to a dog auction, where he was purchased into rescue. He is reportedly a cross of a chihuahua and a shih tzu, but only a DNA test can confirm that as he really doesn't look much like either breed.
He is shy but very sweet, and good with other pups. He is microchipped and has been vaccinated and dosed with Nexgard Plus for flea, tick, heartworm and intestinal worm prevention.
Because he is too young to neuter, he will be placed with a neuter contract.

Captain is an adorable little "poochon" puppy - a cross of a poodle and a bichon frise. He was born 7/6/26 in a commercial kennel, then consigned to a dog breeder auction as a potential stud dog. Instead, he was purchased into rescue so he can spend his life as a cherished family member rather than in a breeder's pen.
He is a sweet, friendly, playful baby who gets along well with other pups. He is microchipped and up to date with vaccinations and wormings.
Because he is too young to be neutered, he will be placed with a neuter contract. When proof of surgery is received, adopter will be mailed a rebate check for $50.00
His adoption fee is $350.00
If you would like to adopt Captain, email me at thistle88@centurytel.net and request an application.

Meet Frank, a 6-month-old bundle of cuteness who is convinced that life is meant for playing, snuggling, and making new friends!
Frank and his brothers, Jones and Wright, came into rescue from an overcrowded property, but those days are behind them! Frank is making up for lost time by enjoying all the things a puppy should—wrestling with his brothers, exploring his surroundings, and finding the perfect spot to crash when his puppy battery runs out.
We suspect Frank has a little low-rider breed in his family tree, and those adorable short legs just make him that much more irresistible!
But there's more to Frank than his cute looks. He's a loving boy who enjoys human attention just as much as playtime. He's ready for a family who will teach him new things, include him in their adventures, and show him what being a cherished family member is all about.
Thank you for checking out our wonderful orphans. If you would like to find out more please email or call Diane at...diane@ulpr.org or 870-577-3744.

At just 6 months old, Wright has already come a long way! What started as a rough beginning has turned into a beautiful transformation. This sweet boy has blossomed into a happy, playful, and affectionate puppy who is ready to find his forever family!
Wright loves spending his days romping around with his brothers, Jones and Frank, getting into typical puppy shenanigans, and then curling up for a well-deserved nap. When he's not busy playing, he's looking for someone to shower him with attention and affection!
And can we talk about those adorable little legs?! Wright appears to have some "low rider" breed mixed in, giving him an extra dose of cuteness with his shorter legs and longer body!
Wright is ready to leave his rough past behind and start his next chapter with a family who will love him as much as he'll love them. He's got plenty of puppy energy, a heart full of love, and a whole lot of personality packed into those little legs!
Thank you for checking out our wonderful orphans. If you would like to find out more please email or call Diane at...diane@ulpr.org or 870-577-3744.

Hi, I'm Dancer! I'm a sweet, friendly, and curious girl. I'm independent, too. I like to explore new places and sniff out interesting things. I'm gentle with everyone I meet and I'm brave when I need to be. I'm mellow, so I don't mind just hanging out and relaxing. I love to play, and I'm always up for a game of fetch or tug-of-war. I'm a bit shy at first, but once I get to know you, I'm super cuddly. I would love to find a forever home where I can continue to be my playful, curious self. I promise to be a loyal and loving companion. I may be a little shy, but I have a big heart. Will you be my new best friend?

Meet Penny!

Sweet, playful, and full of love, Penny is ready to find a family of her very own! Found as a stray in Hasty, this beautiful young Lab/Collie mix has a heart of gold.

Penny absolutely adores people, gets along great with other dogs, and loves nothing more than being part of the pack! Penny has the perfect balance of playful energy and gentle manners.

She's still young and loves to have fun, but she's also sweet, well-behaved, and eager to please. She already knows “sit” and “come” and would love a family who can teach her even more!

Sweet puppy abandoned with her siblings. Will be fully vetted as scheduling permits.

Henry has the most intense eyes and such a beautiful black coat with a flag tail. He’ll be great company for an energetic person or family. He also enjoys his down time to just relax.

Hi, I'm Blackie! I'm a 5 year old sweet Lab mix with a great personality. I'm a happy-go-lucky kind of guy. I'm currently in a foster home awaiting my chance at a forever home. Can that be with you?This big hearted boy was found wandering the road on 64 near HH in Goodson. It appears that he was abandoned. He has a lot of personal love and attention to give a loving, caring family. He is a true couch potato at heart and just wants a safe place to live and a warm lap to lay his head on. He takes a bath and daily brushings well, walks on a leash great, gets along with my two Goldens and sleeps on the bed with us.

Hi, I'm Winston! I was at the shelter when I was just a tiny pup, but now I'm back through no fault of my own. I'm a sweet, goofy, and personable boy. I'm around 5.5 years old and am a Lab/Coonhound mix- what a great combo! I seem to be potty-trained and I get along well with other dogs.

Bambi is a sweet, gentle girl who adores the women in her life. She is very uncomfortable around men and would be ideal for a single woman or an all-female household, with no men visiting often. Calm kids 12 and up are probably fine.

She’ll need an adopter who lets her settle in at her own pace.

She’s a little thing, probably under 15 lbs, and she’s vaccinated, spayed, and ready to be someone’s cherished companion!

This sweet little chocolate-and-peanut-butter brindle puppy is looking for a forever OR foster home!

Originally part of a large litter born to a very friendly but extremely neglected and abandoned mama dog, Peanut Butter is sadly the lone survivor from the litter, but she is currently in a place with many other dogs and cats, so she is still being socialized with other animals.

Peanut Butter is described by her caretaker as “shy, but friendly” – and they said that she LOVES the kiddy pool! She loves to soak herself, roll around, and play with the hose.

Hi, I'm Lumen! I've had a rough life, but thankfully these nice people rescued me. The first time I was here a few years ago I came from a big rescue with several other dogs. I was covered in mange and therefore why I have some bald patches and scarring on my face and body.Through no fault of my own I'm back at the shelter again, but I haven't let that dim my spirit at all! I'm a sweet girl and love to play! I've got a goofy personality and need to be your one and only pet. I seem to be potty-trained and walking on a leash is super easy for me. Can you look past my different features and love me for my amazing soul?

Hi! I'm Timber. I love spending my days playing with my favorite toys and learning new tricks. I'm always ready for a cuddle or a gentle walk. I've made many friends here, both human and furry, but I dream of a forever home where I can share all my love and loyalty. I'm the perfect companion for someone who needs a sweet friend to share life's simple joys. If you're looking for unconditional love, I'm your dog! Let's make wonderful memories together.

Meet Ice! ❄️

This gorgeous girl has the most beautiful blue eyes and a personality to match. We’re guessing Ice may be a hound mixed with Aussie and/or cattle dog, giving her a fun combination of smarts, energy, and sweetness.

Ice is estimated to be around 2 years old. She’s friendly, intelligent, and gets along well with other dogs. She’d love a home where she can be part of the family, stay active, and get plenty of love and attention.

If you’re looking for a bright, beautiful companion with a sweet nature, Ice may be your girl!

Timber is a sweet, easygoing girl and beautiful brindle girl who enjoys spending time with the other dogs in her pack, especially a young rescue pup who she has taken under her wing.

She was originally found as a stray in a rural area along with her siblings and is now ready to find a loving home of her own.

Timber would love a family where she can feel safe, be part of the everyday routine, and enjoy plenty of companionship. She’s a gentle girl who’s simply looking for a happy place to call home.

Meet Ollie!

Ollie is a sweet young bully breed pup, estimated to be around 7–8 months old, who is looking for a loving home of his own.

This handsome boy was sadly abandoned near our home and left to starve in the wilderness. Since then, he’s been nursed back to health, neutered, and fully vaccinated - and through it all, he has remained an incredibly good boy.

Ollie is crate trained and already knows “sit” and “down.” He’s still just a puppy, so he has lots of growing and learning ahead of him, but he’s off to a wonderful start and is ready for someone to give him the happy life he deserves!

I'm Simba. I'm a beautiful guy. I'm big and like being outdoors.

Moose is a two-year-old mixed-breed, handsome black-and-tan boy weighing about 72 pounds. He came to us at four months old from a breeding situation, along with two siblings.

Indoors, Moose is a calm, shy, and sweet dog who settles easily. He enjoys petting, napping on the sofa, and spending time outside exploring his world. He loves to play and run, making him a great match for an active family.

Jade was found living in the woods of rural Newton County with a group of dogs, likely her littermates. After months of looking out for herself and her pack, she's figured out how to survive. Now she needs someone to teach her how to be a house dog.

Jade lives with a large pack currently and generally gets along with most dogs, though she can be bossy and pushy with some, especially other females. She's also vocal and will bark to announce strangers, but she listens and backs off when she's corrected. A meet-and-greet with any resident dogs is required, and she'll do best with someone who can give her consistent structure.
