I’m Josie—but all my friends call me JoJo, and I really hope you’ll be my next best friend. I’m about 1.5 years old, weigh a perfectly huggable 43 pounds, and I’m told I’m a border collie/spaniel mix—which I think just means I’m extra smart and extra sweet! My past is a little fuzzy, but I do remember being all by myself in a big city park. I was so brave, living out there for almost a week and even curling up to sleep in a kind stranger’s yard. That’s when a lovely lady scooped me up and took me to a shelter where everyone was super nice. Now I’m in a foster home with MoKan Border Collie Rescue, learning how to be a Very Good Girl—and guess what? I’m really good at it! Let me tell you a little about myself: I love people—but I can be shy at first. Sometimes I bark or growl a little when I meet new folks, but give me 20 seconds and I’ll be asking for cuddles. Promise. I know “sit,” “down,” and “wait” (although waiting is kinda hard when you’re this excited about life). I’m also house trained and crate trained, and I never beg for food at the table. I’m polite like that. I’m a car ride enthusiast! I love sticking my nose to the window and watching the world go by. I adore running big zoomy laps in the yard. It’s the best feeling! I’m not super into toys yet—except for my jolly ball, which I LOVE. I could play soccer with it all day. I’m still learning how to bring it back, but my foster mom says I’m making progress! I eat my meals in my crate like a little lady, and I take treats ever so gently. I’m not possessive of my stuff, either. I live with two foster dog siblings. I really like my foster brother—we zoom around the yard together. My foster sister and I mostly get along, but we had one little disagreement, so I’d do best with the right doggie companion—preferably someone confident and kind who can help me build my own confidence. I haven’t met any kids or cats here, but the shelter folks said I liked them when I was there. I did meet a fox, and I must say, I wasn’t a fan. Same goes for ducks and probably chickens—I get a little too excited around small, fluttery creatures. Loud noises don’t bother me much. People sometimes target practice near our foster home, and I just carry on being my happy self. I have one hard “no”: asparagus. Yuck. Soft things? Yes please! Couches, beds, blankets… if it’s fluffy, I’m in. I got a bath and, even though it wasn’t my favorite thing, I stood still like a champ. I’m not a sprinkler or water-loving dog, but I’ll gladly enjoy a sunny patch of grass nearby while you splash around! I’m spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and up to date on all my preventatives. I’m healthy and ready to start my next adventure—with you! I’m still a little shy in new places and around new people, so I’d love a forever family who can be patient, gentle, and help me build up my confidence. I also need a secure fenced yard to keep me safe from all the exciting critters out there that I really want to chase. So… are you the person who’s going to love me forever? Because I’ve got a big heart and so much love to give—and I can’t wait to share it with my perfect match. I’m being fostered just north of Kansas City. If you think we might be a good fit, please fill out an application! Love (and tail wags), Jojo   Josie is being fostered in the North KCMO area.Click here to watch a video of Josie (Adoption Pending).Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 4, 2025, 12:29 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.If interested in adopting, read about our Adoption Process and complete an Adoption Application on the Mo-Kan website.  A Mo-Kan application must be filled out to begin the process.(Sending an "Inquiry" via Petfinder does not constitute an application.)   When this striking young man was rescued by MoKan, one name immediately seemed to fit – Redford – because he is so handsome! His long, soft coat is a beautiful mixture of red, brown & black, with patches of white on his head, face & neck, along with his white sock feet. His unique brindle markings continue on his long, full tail that he happily wags frequently. Redford came into MoKan as an unwanted stray, and those of us who have been in his presence simply cannot understand why. The sweetest personality accompanies Redford’s dashing looks, and he is all about pleasing his person. He has learned ‘sit’ and ‘down’ and is very mindful when his foster mom gives him direction. There is no doubt Redford would respond well to any type of training, and he is a big fan of rewards. Although he is not very fond of his crate yet, with a few words of encouragement over time he stops whining and settles in. So far, there have been no accidents inside the house, and he is given numerous opportunities for bio breaks throughout the day and frequent yard time. He is learning to walk on a leash and seems to enjoy exploring, but right now we do a lot of zig zagging along the way. Redford plays very nicely with his two foster dog siblings who are both smaller in size, and he would likely love to have a furry sibling. Although he has not exhibited any prey drive, per se, Redford does seem easily annoyed by the presence of his foster kitty cat siblings, so he might do best in a home without cats or small critters. Redford is a 50 pound extremely loving two year-old with a lot of puppy playfulness but not the destructive behaviors that sometime accompany a puppy. He is very content to play with toys, balls, and gnaw on teething bones. He puts a paw on each shoulder and gives hugs to his foster mom, and he is always thrilled to receive a belly rub. He thinks brushing his hair is a game, with the winner being the one who captures the brush…but we’ll keep working on that. Given that Redford has only recently discovered what it’s like to be in a loving home, it would probably be best if he is not left alone for extended periods of time. Redford is neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccinations, heartworm negative and receives monthly preventatives. He is being fostered in the St. Louis, MO area. This good-looking fella is ready to find his happily forever with a family of his own. Could that be you?

She loves exercise and will need this daily, such as long or frequent walks. She would  be a good running or hiking partner, and is up for almost any adventure! She’s also happy to cuddle up for a good belly rub! She is spayed and up-to-date on all of her vaccines. She is heartworm negative and on monthly preventatives.

If am not cuddling up with my foster mom soaking up all the love and affection from her, you can usually catch me playing with my foster brothers and sisters ranging in size from a Labrador Retriever to a dachshund. I have also learned to respect my foster moms kitties in the household. I still have very sharp teeth and am learning not to play bite, so a home with older children is ideal for me. I love playing with the leaves in the grass and enjoying being outside in the sunshine. I also like playing fetch and still currently learning how to bring the toy back to my foster mom. I LOVE my Kong toys, Licky mats, snuffle mats, and my awesome Super Chewer toys that mom buys me from Bark Box. I can sit on command, and am currently working on learning shake, other paw, down, and stay. One day at a time is what I am told! I am 100% crate trained, leash trained, and I almost have potty training down. Sometimes, I get sidetracked when I am playing with the dogs inside, and I forget to alert when I have to go potty. Car rides are my FAVORITE! My foster mom works at a veterinarian clinic, and I go with her every day to work, which means I get to put my head out the window (safely) and let my ears flap in the wind. Bystanders think I am pretty cute, and I can always make them smile when we are driving by people. While I am at work with mom, I get to meet a lot of new people each week who all play with me and adore me! She even takes me to Lowes on the weekends where people love to say hello, and I get so excited! My foster mom says it's also important to behave right when we are at the vet, so she has already taught me it's not a scary place to be! She works with me on safe restraints for exams and vaccines, nail trims, and even checking my ears so when I grow up the Dr can do so without me being too worried they are going to hurt me.
