Story
Hi! My name’s Houston. I'm a four-year-old boxer mix boy and kind of a beefcake at around 80 pounds. (I'd argue that it's all muscle, too.) One of the things I want most in a forever home is a human friend to hang out with, not doing anything in particular, just a couple pals spending time together. Wouldn't that be amazing? I'm a little shy at first, but if you'll give me a few minutes to get to know you, we'll be besties. And I promise to be your snuggle pup! Really, though, I’m way too smart to laze around 24/7. I know sit, down, stay, high five, orbit, between, and wait. Learning tricks is one of my favorite activities and I can pick up new ones in just a day or two. I love to run outside and play in water from the hose. In case I wasn't clear enough on that, I LOVE PLAYING IN THE WATER!!!. My favorite game of all is tug of war. (I'll even let you win sometimes!) I’m kennel trained, house trained, and am good at being left alone. In fact, I do some of my best snoozing in my crate while I wait patiently for you to come home. I’d do best in a home with older children because I’m still learning how to contain all my excitement around the little ones. Since I've been looking for a home for a while, I think I'd prefer to be the only doggo so I don't have to share. I’ve got so much love to share and I absolutely cannot wait to meet you! You'll get to see my cute little nub of a tail wag and wag when I'm happy and that will make YOU happy, too! Call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387 to find out more about me! I'm in the Kansas City metro, but my human friends will transport me to the right home. #thepetconnection #BoxerMix #AdoptDontShop #RescueDog #DogsofKC #SmartPup #PlayfulPup #ForeverHomeNeeded #KCAdopt #DogLovers #pawsitivetailskc

Story
Meet Fletch! This brindle cutie is a master of the happy butt-wiggle. Fletch is playful, goofy, and smart, but also knows the art of cuddling. He’s housebroken, crate trained, and does great on a leash—walks are his jam! Fletch loves people and will be happiest as your one-and-only pup, though he might do fine with a calm doggy friend. He’s an affectionate, mostly quiet guy who’s just as happy chasing toys as he is snuggling on the couch. A fenced yard and daily exercise will keep him at his best. Fletch has had some tough times, but he’s grateful for every good thing—and he’s ready for his forever people to come along. 📍 Kansas City metro (transport available!) 📞 Call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387

Meet Xena! She's a sweet boxer mix looking for a home where she'll be loved and cared for. She's around 2 years old, spayed, fully vaccinated, and loves all the people she meets. She was a little dog selective in her previous home, but she's been great on dog intros with us. Xena came from a tough situation, but she doesn't let that hold her back. She loves all the people (including kids), and the other dogs she's met with us. If you'd like to meet Xena and give her a little snuggle, call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387. She's in the Kansas City metro, but transport might be available to the right home.

Story
Meet Athena!Athena is a stunning 5-year-old Pit Bull mix with a gorgeous brindle and white coat and a heart ready to bond with her forever family. She’s spent some time at the shelter, but even short escapes for a walk or hike show her true personality—calm, affectionate, and wonderfully responsive once she gets a little energy out. Athena is dog selective, sometimes getting along with other dogs, so she’ll do best with careful introductions, but she thrives when she has the attention and patience of her people. Walks reset her stress level, cuddles are welcomed, and with the right home, she’s sure to settle in beautifully. Smart, loving, and ready for adventure or quiet moments alike, Athena is searching for a family to call her own and shower with love.
