About Stewart

Meet Stewart! Stewart is about 4 years old and is a Collie mix. He faced a tough situation when he ended up on a shelter euthanasia list due to a heartworm diagnosis, but he was fortunate enough to be given a second chance. Currently undergoing treatment for heartworm, Stewart remains a cheerful spirit despite his deafness. He is friendly, gentle, and affectionate, enjoying the presence of his people. While he may not hear you call him a good boy, he absolutely recognizes love when he feels it. It’s important to note that Stewart has a prey drive, so he’ll need a home without cats or small animals. After all he has endured, he is still trusting and eager to find his forever home. Stewart has survived the shelter and now just needs someone to provide the love and stability he deserves. The adoption fee is $250, and we provide transport options to various locations including St. Louis, MO, and parts of the Northeast. Ready to give Stewart a forever home? Apply today!
