DOG TEST: (Good with Dogs) Roco has met a few dogs at the shelter and does great with them. He may do better in a home with a male dog though.
CAT TEST: (Good with Cats) Roco has been in a home with cats before and would do well in a home with them.
KID TEST: (Good with Kids) Roco would do great with kids of all ages. HOUSE BROKEN: (Housebroken) Roco tends to keep a clean kennel and will go potty outside. ENERGY LEVEL: (Low-Medium) Roco is a relaxed boy that doesn`t seem to want to do a whole lot. He likes to spend his time chewing on tennis balls and walking around with them in his mouth. Roco is very much a talker and will let you know when he needs to go outside for a potty break or just wants some love and affection!
LEASH WALKING: (Needs Works) Roco does pull a little hard on the leash, but mostly does good overall. KNOWN COMMANDS: Sit (Yes) Down (No) Stay (No) Shake (Yes) Speak (Yes)

More about this shelter
We are a Municipal Animal Shelter for the City of Lee's Summit. We house animals brought in by Lee's Summit Animal Control Officers and Blue Springs Animal Control Officers.
Animals are also brought to us by owners that can no longer keep the animal or by strays that were impounded for running loose.
When an animal comes in as a stray, it is held for 5 days to give the owner a chance to claim it. If the owner does not claim it, on the 6th day it is put up for adoption or foster. During this 5 day holding period, if a potential adopter would like to adopt the animal, they are welcome to sign up on the adoption list. The names on the adoption list are contacted on the 6th day if no owner has made claim.
If there are no names on the adoption list, then the animal will become first come, first served when available for adoption.
