Story
Lucy is incredibly smart. She loves hard. Give the biggest hugs. She will even jump into your arms and be held like a baby. LOVES to play fetch. She could do that for hours. She knows how to sit, shake, lay down, and roll over. Not a very good walking dog. She plays very good with kids and most other dogs. She is the friendliest dog when you take her to dog play places. BUT she is very ornery. If she doesn’t want to listen she won’t listen. Since she has been outdoor kenneled for so long she is itching for freedom. Unfortunately due to our living situation and close quarters we cannot keep Lucy. We have all her paperwork. She is fine to stay with us for a while she is just having to be kept kenneled and not let out to run around or play as much as we know she deserves. Her smarts get her in trouble but if someone has time to spend with her she with be the most sweet loyal dog.

Story
My son at college got Marvin from a friend who was fostering for the family that could not keep him. My son's university housing would not allow him to keep Marvin. He lived with him for about 3 months. We brought him to our home where we have attempted to find him a home. He is about 3, potty trained, neutered, shots and flea treatment are current. He is sweet and gentle. He is a big guy who loves to snuggle and doesn't realize he is not a lap dog. I have only seen him around other male dogs and he does fine, is not aggressive but wants to play. He rarely barks. We have dogs on both fence lines, and he will run the fence with them while they bark and will not bark at all. He does occasionally bark if a rabbit sits too long in his line of site out the window. We are working on the command come. He is not lease trained and a powerful guy. We are currently working on that too. If adopting family is in the KC area, Engels will always dog sit when available, free of charge.

Story
Millie will be a great addition to someone's home but we just aren't the perfect fit. Millie has undergone extensive training (3-week overnight "bootcamp") and has made great strides, but we have not put in the effort to be consistent at home with what she's learned. We are rehoming because our home is a bit too chaotic for her to be successful and she does not get enough walks & exercise to suit her needs. Millie is good with dogs and loves to play but is definitely dominant which can be overwhelming at first to smaller dogs. She doesn't know how big she is! She's a bit of a counter thief an will steal anything that smells good that has been left unattended. She likes to snuggle and be affectionate and will be all over you to the extent you let her. Millie is high energy and will do great with an active person/family who will give her plenty of walks and opportunity to run and who will be consistent in reinforcing the commands she learned during her training.

Story
Meet Stewart! Stewart is an 8-year-old Lhasa Apso mix with a sweet, loving personality. He is super playful and wonderful with children, cats, and other dogs and would make an amazing addition to a loving home! Stewart has a history of intervertebral disc disease (IVDD), although he has not had an episode in many years. He does best with smaller dogs, as roughhousing with larger dogs can make him anxious. He also prefers not to be rolled onto his back unless he does so himself. Rehoming Stewart has been an incredibly difficult decision for our family. Unfortunately, our living situation has changed, and we are no longer able to give him the time and attention he deserves. Stewart is very loved, and our greatest hope is to find him a wonderful home where he can receive the love, companionship, and care he deserves!
