Story
JB is a sensitive, intelligent dog who is slowly learning to trust the world again. He recently made the long trip back from Iowa and handled it without any issues. Since arriving, he has begun settling into a predictable routine and has made strong bonds with the resident dogs—especially the Malinois and a female German Shepherd he absolutely adores. JB is skittish by nature and will need a patient adopter who can give him the space and time he needs. He is wary of new people and uncomfortable with handling. While he wags his tail and shows clear affection toward his trusted person, he does not enjoy being touched and often stiffens when petted. He will lick your hand when you’re not looking, but he’s not yet comfortable taking treats from hands. With the right person, he may continue to grow, but he will need an adopter who respects his boundaries. JB is not recommended for homes with men, as he is generally fearful of them. A female-only home is ideal. He should also not live with cats or young children. Teenagers may be okay as long as they understand his space and needs. On the bright side, JB does beautifully with other dogs and may benefit from living with a confident canine companion. He enjoys herding-type activities, loves to run, and frequently plays with the dogs in his foster home. Outdoors, he no longer chases the horses and respects their space. He does fairly well on walks and tends to circle his person, keeping close. While he hasn’t been off-leash, he has a solid recall and doesn’t try to run off when outside. JB is housebroken, kennel trained, and goes into both his indoor and outdoor kennels easily. He knows a few basic commands like “come,” “sit,” and “kennel.” A patient training approach—or even a class—could help him build confidence, but he will need a trainer familiar with fearful dogs. JB’s ideal home is quiet, structured, and led by a patient woman who understands nervous, shut-down, or fearful dogs. A fenced yard, another friendly dog, and a calm environment would help him continue to progress. Inside the home he tends to pace, but once things are still, he settles. Sudden movements send him retreating to his kennel, though he returns once the environment is calm again. JB is a project dog—but a rewarding one for the right person. With time, consistency, and compassion, he will continue to blossom at his own pace. He’s looking for someone who sees beyond his fears and is ready to offer him the gentle, steady love he’s learning to trust.

Story
Meet Sherlock Sherlock is a newly 6-year-old gentleman with the sweetest heart and the gentlest soul. If you're looking for a calm, loyal companion who simply wants to be by your side, Sherlock may be your perfect match. Sherlock is healthy, neutered, up to date on all of his vaccinations, and has wonderful house manners. He's the kind of dog everyone dreams of—well behaved, attentive, and eager to please. He listens beautifully, settles nicely in the home, and is happiest simply spending time with his people. Whether you're relaxing on the couch, working around the house, or heading out for an adventure, Sherlock is content just being wherever you are. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs, is great with cats, and has been respectful around farm animals. He also enjoys walks, loves visiting the dog park, and will never pass up a game of fetch. Sherlock came to us as an owner surrender after environmental stressors made life increasingly difficult for him. Loud, frequent trains created significant anxiety, and we've learned that he truly thrives in a peaceful, predictable environment. Because of this, Sherlock is looking for a quiet home without the hustle and bustle of small children or constant chaos. He absolutely loves country living, where he can relax and enjoy the slower pace of life. Sherlock isn't asking for much—just a calm home, a loving family, and someone to share everyday life with. In return, you'll gain a faithful best friend who will love you with his whole heart.

Story
Meet Trail! Trail is a handsome Border Collie mix with a bright future ahead of him—he just needs someone to give him a chance. Trail has been waiting at the Chillicothe Animal Shelter for a family to call his own. During his stay, he was selected to participate in Missouri's Puppies for Parolees program, where shelter dogs receive obedience training, socialization, and valuable life skills while working with inmate trainers. Because of the program, Trail has a great training foundation and is ready to continue learning with his future family. Trail also does well with other dogs, making him a great candidate for a home with a canine companion or for someone looking to add another dog to the family. After waiting patiently for someone to notice him, Trail is ready to leave shelter life behind and discover what it feels like to have a family of his own. Could that family be yours? Basics: He is a neutered male guessed to be around 1.5 yrs old and weighs close to 40lbs. Adoption Process: - STEP 1: Please fill out our adoption application: https://www.dayofthedogs.org/adoption-application - One of our team members will get back to you via phone. - Our dogs can be seen by appointment only. We do not have a facility at this time. Dogs are in foster homes or boarding - Adoption fee of $200 helps to cover transport costs, spay/neuter, initial vaccines, rabies, fecal, initial worming, and microchip. -We do not place holds on our dogs. Please do not contact us until you are prepared to adopt. NOTE: We are very good about updating the pet's profiles once adopted. So no need to write us to ask "Is he/she still available?" If the post is up, the dog is still available. About Day of the Dogs Day of the Dogs is a volunteer-driven 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to helping shelter and rescue dogs find safety, families, and second chances. Founded in 2015 by a Kansas City native, Day of the Dogs began after Pam moved to Houston, Texas and witnessed firsthand the devastating shelter overcrowding crisis facing southern communities, where some shelters have only days to find an outcome for homeless pets. Today, Day of the Dogs coordinates life-saving transports from Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and other southern areas to rescue partners, shelters, fosters, and adopters in Northwest Indiana/Chicagoland and the Kansas City region — communities where adoption demand can help create better outcomes for pets in need. We also focus on long stay dogs in the Greater Kansas City and surrounding rural areas to help those pets get out of kennels and into homes. We also facilitate direct adoptions through our foster networks in both Kansas City and Northwest Indiana and partner with shelters and rescue organizations across Missouri, Kansas, Illinois, and Indiana to save more lives together. Because every open foster home creates another opportunity to save a dog, we are always looking for foster families to join our mission. Day of the Dogs operates entirely on donations. Every transport, veterinary appointment, supply purchase, and life saved is possible because of supporters who believe every dog deserves a chance. Donate or learn more: www.dayofthedogs.org
