Dog Divas: Clayton's Brighton Promotes Adoptions with Animal Protective Association

The Pics of the Litter campaign will promote pets available for adoption at the APA of Missouri in Brentwood.

Ten adoption-eligible dogs got pampered and photographed in style last week as part of a collaboration between Clayton's Brighton Agency and the Brentwood-based Animal Protective Association of Missouri.

Adoptable Puppy: Spice Up Your Life

Spice is a 3-year-old puppy who is available for adoption at the Animal Protective Association of Missouri.

Spice is a wonderful puppy that will certainly spice up your life! She is 3 months old and is a happy, playful and silly girl. When Spice became available for adoption, the animal care staff at the APA set her up in the puppy room with the other small dogs and puppies. It didn't take her long to figure out that if she could climb over the short kennel walls, she could play with the other dogs. We watched her play with every single dog and even took a short video of her antics. Check it out! Obviously, Spice really likes other dogs. After she finishes playing, she curls up with a fellow shelter dog to take a nap. She'd be great in a home with other dogs. She also seems to love every person she meets.
