Story

He’s pretty high energy & can be pretty skittish, but he’s never been aggressive. He’s a very sweet boy & LOVES everyone, we just have too much going on to keep him. He has a couple of fatty lumps on his chest/neck, nothing concerning or life threatening (normal for labs/lab mixes). Will provide some food & bed, as well as some other care bits and bobs we have for him. I don’t necessarily need the $10, I just want him to go to a good home where he can have the attention he needs/deserves. Located in Pittsburg KS (adopt a pet won’t let me change the zip code).

Story

Lahni is certianly a difficult case, not for the inexperienced dog parent. She has seasonal allergies that require allergy medication, for which she’s currently on immunotherapy treatments. She gets the occasional ear infection that is common with collie mixes. She is incredibly smart which makes her quite stubborn, and she loves to bark. Honestly, she needs a home where she can roam free and be able to kind of do her own thing, which at this time in my life I’m unable to provide. Unfortunately, she needs a new home with a new family to love due to our families new baby. She hasn’t been aggressive towards the baby but she has been aggressive towards strangers in the home since my son was born, likely just being protective but I can’t trust her anymore. If you’re looking for a challenge and a really smart dog, Lahnis the right dog for you.

Story

Adopted this sweet girl from the Humane when she was still a pup, was a stray most of her puppyhood. Fee is flexible I just really want to make sure she goes to a good and loving home.She's about 4 now and truly is as sweet as can be and snuggly to boot! Great with kids and other dogs. She's pretty attached to our other dog and I hate to break them up but we just do not have the ability to meet all her needs anymore. I'd be happy to rehome both together if possible but know she does well without him after a period too. I'd say she's high need but fairly low energy, very loving and gentle. We'd be happy to provide her kennel and bedding and some toys she loves as well. I want her to be in a good home and wish I could do what she needs but with a baby in the house now we just aren't meeting her needs.

Charlie

Mutt

Female, Puppy

Lawrence, KS

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

We were told it was a chocolate lab when we agreed to take her in from someone out of state. They brought her all the way to us and when she got here, we realized she was possibly a PitBull. She’s sweet as can be but she is very hyper. She does not tear anything up and loves sitting right at your feet. She savers her food but does not use the doggy door. She’s a little fancy so you will have to open the door for her lol. I have young babies so I can’t really let her roam about in the same room as the babies due to her hyperness but they love her. She will jump up on you and she is house trained.

Pip

Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, Adult

Lawrence, KS

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Pip.She has spent most of her life as an open-range ranch dog. When my last parent passed away a few months ago, we brought her into our multi-pet home. Unfortunately, she let us know that she is happiest -- and safest -- when she is the only pet. . Here's the thing about Pip -- with her humans, she's a dream. She's calm, quiet, snuggly, and she listens very well. Her perfect day is spending all day curled up next to you on the couch, so if your idea of the good life is a devoted cuddle bug who thinks the sun rises and sets with you, Pip is your girl, all day long.However, she does need to be the only animal in the home. She has a strong prey drive and cannot safely live with other pets. The good news is that she has been thoroughly examined by our vet. She's healthy, up-to-date on vaccinations, and ready for her next chapter. Finding her the best human is incredibly important to us and my parents' legacy. We would love to tell you more about her.

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Pepper is a 4 year old Bully mix, we don't really know what she is. She has a beautiful coat, is about 70lbs. and is a giant couch potato. We rescued her from the humane society about two years ago and have enjoyed her stay with us. We have three kids, ages 3, 6, 9, that she has been around and is VERY VERY good with them. We also have an old dog and a cat that she does very well with too. She knows her name, but no other commands, loves to be outside in the backyard, on a walk or at the dog park. She is able to go to be in a kennel for several hours and even knows when to go there when we say "Pepper kennel!" We have loved her and enjoyed having her however our life situation is changing and we are recognizing that we cannot give her everything she needs. It is a hard decision but we want her to have the best life she can and would like her go to to a home that she can have all the love, attention and treats she deserves.
