Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Moss is a great boy with a ton of personality! Let's chat about his personal stats, first. Handsome here is about eight years old and 65 pounds--perfection!
He has excellent taste in music; "Gimme Shelter" by the Rolling Stones is his favorite song. His mom and dad used to play it on his walks to help cover up noise that would otherwise scare Moss when he was just a baby. And if you're wondering where his name came from, he's named after a character from the IT Crowd, which is a British comedy series, so he's got culture, too!.
When it's cold outside, Moss loves to cuddle up and rest his head on your lap. During the summers, though, he can be found rolling in the grass and sunbathing. No matter the season, he appreciates butt scritches and belly rubs.
Moss loves, loves, loves to play year-round! His favorite toys have squeakers (yay!), he'll play fetch with you, and he loves to play tug.
This boy is incredibly smart. He knows how to sit, stay, come, look at me, touch (your hand or a post-it placed somewhere), shake, lay down, and find it). Moss is very treat motivated, so teaching him new things will be a breeze. He likes to be challenged with puzzles where food is the reward.
He'd prefer an adult-only home where he can be the only pet, but we promise you won't even need another four-legged friend with this sweet goofball.
Moss is shy at first, but once you become one of his people, he will love you forever. Please call or text The Pet Connection about becoming one of Moss's people. 913-671-7387.

Since 1999, The Pet Connection has found homes for more than 7,000 animals and rehabilitated hundreds of dogs and cats with aggression, fear and anxiety issues. We have spayed or neutered over 8,000 dogs and cats in our own free and low-cost clinics since 2002 and assisted another 5,800 pets with low-cost services since 2006. The Pet Connection was founded in 1999 in Mission, Kansas, to offer shelter for homeless pets, adoptions and training. We were one of the first no-kill advocacy groups in the Kansas City metro area and the first cage-free facility in Johnson County to offer education about available spay and neuter programs. In 2006, The Pet Connection relocated to a facility in Mission that enabled all dogs and cats to have their own rooms while awaiting adoptive homes or being rehabilitated due to behaviors that hindered adoption prospects. The Pet Connection currently focuses on pet adoptions, dog and cat training, aggressive dog rehabilitation, and classes for pet owners. We were the first in this area to offer free training/behavior classes to adopters.
The Pet Connection trainers and behavior members use a team approach in order to implement the ideas that have the highest success rate. Our five behavioral trainers working out of the Kansas City metro have a variety of backgrounds applicable to dog training and behavior. The Pet Connection implements positive reinforcement training methods, where the dog learns to face the trigger, but to respond appropriately. Read about our experienced trainers under “Meet the Team" on our website at www.thepetconnection.net.
The Pet Connection has always been committed to being no-kill advocates. We have been involved in many projects with local and national organizations to help Kansas City progress in how homeless pets are cared for and to improve the services that they receive. Our organization is a 501c3 charity in the state of Kansas, and has always provided thousands of dollars worth of supplies, including cat litter, food, toys, beds and dog houses, to other rescues and shelters.
