Story
Meet Mia – A Resilient, Playful, and Loving Companion! Mia is a 4-year-old, 30-pound sweetheart who’s come a long way since she was found on the streets of Kansas City, Kansas. She has blossomed into a confident, affectionate pup who’s ready for her forever home. These days, Mia loves being a ride-along buddy—she enjoys running errands, exploring home improvement stores, and meeting new people (especially those with treats!). She’s gentle when taking snacks from both her foster and friendly strangers, and her social confidence continues to grow every day. Mia is leash-trained and also worked with professional trainers to build her confidence and reduce her fear-based reactions. She’s made amazing progress and knows several commands, including sit, wait, with me, come, kennel, and is currently learning leave it. She’s crate-trained and happily settles in with a peanut butter Kong. At home, Mia is a great balance of playful and calm. She loves romping in the yard, playing chase or wrestling with her foster sister, and showing off her epic zoomies before curling up in a cozy spot for a nap. Mia can be protective of her resources around other dogs, but she’s making steady progress. She would thrive either as an only dog or with a larger, calm, and playful canine companion. She’s not a fit for homes with cats or young children. Mia can jump a short fence, so she’ll need a home with a tall, secure privacy fence or an adopter committed to leash-walking her for potty breaks. Mia has a big heart and is ready to share it with the right person or family. If you're looking for a loyal, smart, and affectionate dog who’s already put in the work to become her best self—Mia might just be the one! If you are interested in meeting Mia, please fill out an application via our website at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/TRP/Dog and we will get back to you via email once your application has been reviewed. If you have further questions please feel free to reach out to us at adoptionstrp@gmail.com. Mia's adoption fee is $100 and includes age-appropriate vaccines, spay, microchip, deworm, heartworm testing.

Story
Kicker is a sweet and gentle 11 year old senior dog whose golden years shine with loyalty, warmth, and a heart full of love. At this stage in his life, Kicker has truly mastered the art of balance—he is equally delighted to curl up beside you for a cozy cuddle as he is to give you space when you need it. This thoughtful companion knows how to read the room, making him a wonderful match for someone who appreciates a calm yet affectionate presence. He is great on a leash which makes walks with him not only peaceful but also enjoyable. When Kicker came to us he had an infection in one of his toes. This eventually required a toe amputation (hence the pictures with his foot wrapped) but this is now completely healed and he has no mobility issues. Kicker blends right in with other dogs, making him a perfect for families who already have dogs, as well as those who may be welcoming a dog into their lives for the very first time. Just no cats for this boy, as he is a bit too curious. Beyond his charming quirks, Kicker’s loyalty stands out the most. He is the type of dog who forms deep bonds with his people. He has all the wisdom of a senior, wrapped up in the softness of a gentle soul who still enjoys life’s pleasures—treats, walks, cuddles, and companionship. If you are interested in meeting Kicker, please fill out an application via our website at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/TRP/Dog and we will get back to you via email once your application has been reviewed. If you have further questions please feel free to reach out to us at adoptionstrp@gmail.com. Kicker's adoption fee is $100 and includes age-appropriate vaccines, neuter, microchip, deworm, and HW testing.

Story
Meet Freya Freya is a 1 year old female Boxer/Pit mix who is smart, playful, and full of potential. She does well with other dogs and would thrive in a home with older children who can respect boundaries. Freya is very intelligent and eager to learn, and she'll do best with an adopter ready to continue training. She would benefit from a secure yard with a tall, solid (nonchain link) fence so she can safely burn off energy and explore. Freya is a bright, loving pup ready to grow into an amazing companion with the right family. **Freya has poultry sensitivity and will need to be on a lamb, beef, or salmon based food*** If you are interested in meeting Freya, please fill out an application via our website at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/TRP/Dog and we will get back to you via email once your application has been reviewed.

Story
Mikey is a very loving and kind Great Dane. He’s very energetic for a Great Dane but does sleep a lot throughout the day. He’s very good with kids and other household pets. We’ve had him since he was just a puppy and have shared many great moments with him. He loved every camping trip we took and the hikes that came along with them. He knows commands like heal, sit, down, up, place, stay, speak, paw/shake. He loves being with the crowd and is the definition of Gentle Giant. He loves attention from strangers and enjoys being off leash with other dogs. We are sad to see him go due to our growing family, but we are hoping to find a family that will love him the way we have. He is a part of a bonded pair along with Bando. They do everything together and would get anxiety if left apart for too long. I would really appreciate text updates every now and then.

Story
We adopted Gracie in 2024 but she was on her own before that. As a result, she can be a bit anxious, but we’ve made a lot of progress. Unfortunately, our life situation is changing, and we will no longer be able to give her the care and attention she deserves. While initially reserved, Gracie is a sweet, loving dog once she gets to know you. She can be quite playful, although she’s usually content to relax around the house. She sometimes reacts to triggers like sudden loud noises and is protective of the household. She’s an effective watchdog. She has had one minor bite incident that broke skin (no medical attention needed), but the majority of the time her anxiety is very manageable. She is currently in training and is progressing very well! Her ideal situation would be as a solo pet in a quiet home with adults only or possibly older children who are willing to continue her training. She is potty trained, sleeps in her crate at night, and walks great on a leash. A great companion

Story
Bella is a sweet 4 year old girl who loves a quiet, cozy life. She's a real couch potato and enjoys long naps, cuddling, sunbathing, and simply sitting at your feet while you relax. She loves chew toys and bones, and tug o war. She is kennel trained and potty trained, and does best when kenneled if left alone for extended periods or she may have accidents. Bella came from a shelter after being rescued by animal control. She was found abandoned, chained in a backyard, and severely underweight. Because of this, she can be timid and takes time to build trust, especially with men. Once she feels safe, she is full of love. Bella has never bitten a person or another animal. However, she is uncomfortable with other dogs and will growl, so she would do best as the only pet. She has played with children before, but because she has growled at kids in the past she would be happiest in a home without young children, and where older children can be supervised. She really has so much love!
