My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Pet Location: Foster Home – please call 816-986-4426 to schedule a time to meet me.

My Friends at Wayside say:
- I am a graduate of LIFT University. In this program, I learned to build confidence and manage my energy. My adoption comes with a free 30-minute private training session.
- I have a lot of energy and need an active adopter!
- During my time at Wayside, I have enjoyed being around other dogs.
- New people and things make me a little nervous. Let’s take things slow!
- I am eligible for a Slumber Pawty, a 7-10 day in-home trial period. Please visit our website for additional information.

My home needs are:
- I must go to a home that already has another dog so they can show me the ropes.
- I need a home with kids 6 years old and older since I tend to be nervous around new people and loud noises.
- A fenced yard is a must for me! I need a secure area to go out for potty breaks.
- It`s recommended I go home to a quiet home environment.

Special Request from Jewel: For my safety, I need to go home on an anti-slip collar called a martingale collar. For your convenience, we sell them in our retail store, Whiskers and Wags.

Hi there, I’m Jewel! I’m playful and friendly and super sweet. There’s still so much about life that I have yet to figure out, though, so much for me to experience for the very first time. I just never had the chance to be a normal puppy with all the fun and silliness that goes along with that, so I’m making up for lost time now. I hope that maybe you’d like to join me on my journey. I’d love to be part of your family!

I’m a darling, 10-month-old, 34-pound bundle of fun, with gentle eyes, a bright smile, the cutest little face, and a spunky, delightful personality. I’m not fully housebroken yet, but I’m working on it and making progress every day! If you stay patient with me and keep me on a schedule, it will help to set me up for success. These things just take time when you’ve spent your whole life in a shelter. I was transferred to Wayside from a rural, overcrowded shelter in Arkansas, where I had lived my whole life. There were so many dogs there, we had limited resources, and very little human contact. Coming to Kansas City was exciting yet scary and stressful at the same time. I was so happy when I had the opportunity to go to a loving foster home as I wait for you to find me. I’m st
