Story

Daisy is a 4 year old Plott Hound/Terrier mix with a heart full of love and a zest for life. She was originally adopted from us as a puppy, and while her previous family cared about her deeply, they felt she would be happier in a home with more space, time for play, and continued training. Daisy is incredibly affectionate and people-oriented—she doesn’t know a stranger and thrives on attention. She’s playful, spirited, and loves being around other dogs. Her play style can lean toward the rough-and-rowdy side, so she'd be a great match for a confident dog who can keep up with her energy. She truly seems happiest when she has a canine companion, especially since she does struggle with some separation anxiety. Being left alone with another dog greatly helps her settle in. Daisy is smart and eager to please, and with a bit of structure and consistency, she’s sure to flourish. She would do best in a home where she has space to romp and a person or family who can provide her with regular playtime, enrichment, and affection. Daisy is a bright, loving girl who’s ready for her next chapter—could it be with you?

Shepherd (Unknown Type)

Story

Meet Kiko 💛 Kiko is a beautiful 3–4 year old shepherd mix whose journey with us began in July of 2023 when she arrived through animal control. We don’t know much about her early life, but what we do know is that she has spent her time with us proving just how special she is. Her first stay at the shelter was short — she was quickly adopted into a wonderful home and enjoyed a happy couple of months with her family. Unfortunately, when her family was deployed overseas, they were unable to take her with them, and Kiko found herself back with us through no fault of her own. On her second adoption, Kiko joined a large, loving family where she was truly adored. She did great with the older kids and loved being part of the action. However, as a new baby joined the household and began crawling and becoming more mobile, it became clear that the unpredictability of a very young child made Kiko uncomfortable. For everyone’s well-being, it was decided that Kiko would thrive best in a home without young children. Kiko is an incredibly sweet, affectionate girl who absolutely loves people and attention. She’s active, playful, and full of life — always ready to run, play, and be someone’s adventure buddy. She has a great foundation: she’s house trained, crate trained, rides well in the car, knows basic commands, does well with other dogs, and has successfully lived with cats. More than anything, Kiko is hoping for a forever home where she can finally settle in for good. She’s ready to give her whole heart to someone who will commit to her and give her the stability she deserves. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, fun-loving companion, Kiko might just be your perfect match. 🐾💛

Askem

Australian Cattle Dog

Male, 3 yrs 3 mos

Lebanon, MO

Size

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

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Askem is a sensitive and soulful little guy who’s had his world turned upside down recently. At around 25 pounds, he’s on the smaller side — possibly a mix of Heeler and Chihuahua — and combines the sharp intelligence and need for purpose of a working dog with the emotional sensitivity and wariness that can come with tiny-dog genetics. The result? A dog who feels deeply, bonds strongly, and needs a bit of extra support navigating change. Askem was originally adopted from us as a puppy and spent the majority of his life with his first owner, who adored him. They gave him a loving, stable home for nearly two years and had nothing but wonderful things to say about him — affectionate, loyal, and a true companion. Unfortunately, a sudden change in their living situation meant they could no longer care for him. They tried to rehome Askem to a relative, but the match just wasn’t right, and after a short time in that second home, Askem found himself back with us — confused, overwhelmed, and unsure of what was happening. Understandably, he hasn’t adjusted well to the change. He’s a naturally nervous dog, and losing the only home he ever knew has shaken his sense of security. In the short-term home he passed through, Askem was reported to struggle with house training and was defensive with guests. These behaviors aren’t uncommon for dogs dealing with stress and uncertainty — especially those like Askem who are already prone to anxiety. It seems likely that he tried to cope the only way he knew how: by overcompensating with controlling behavior (classic Heeler) and reacting quickly when he felt vulnerable (classic Chihuahua). What Askem needs now is someone who can see past those stress responses and understand what they really mean — a dog who is insecure, not difficult. He would thrive with a confident, patient person who can offer him structure, predictability, and firm-but-kind boundaries. He’s the kind of dog who finds comfort in routine, and who will slowly let his guard down when he knows what to expect and who to trust. Beneath the nerves, Askem is incredibly affectionate. Sit down with him and speak softly, and you’ll see the longing in his eyes — he wants to be close, to crawl into your lap, to melt under your touch. He loves scritches and rubdowns and clearly desires connection. We're giving him the time and space he needs right now to rebuild his confidence, and he's already starting to show those sweet, loyal glimpses of the dog he once was. Askem isn’t a dog for everyone — he needs a calm home, likely without young children, and with someone who’s familiar with shy or reactive dogs. But for the right person, he’ll be a deeply rewarding companion. If you believe that trust is something worth earning, and you're ready to help a dog rediscover what it means to feel safe, Askem just might be waiting for you.

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Ranger! 🐾 This handsome goofball is an 8–12 month old German Shepherd mix who’s ready to trade in shelter life for a forever home of his own. Ranger was picked up by animal control and, sadly, never reclaimed—but he hasn’t let that slow him down one bit. Ranger is a whole lot of happy packed into one eager, wiggly pup. He has energy for days and a zest for life that’s downright contagious. Whether it’s meeting new people, bouncing around with other dogs, or exploring the great outdoors, Ranger is all in—tail wagging, ears perked, eyes bright. He loves everyone he meets and is genuinely just thrilled to be part of the action. He does know a few basic commands already and seems to want to learn more—he just doesn’t quite know how to channel all that enthusiasm yet. Ranger is the kind of dog who will thrive with structure, positive reinforcement, and a patient adopter who’s ready to start from the ground up. He’s confident, eager to please, and incredibly smart—traits that will make training more of an exciting journey than a challenge. Ranger would do best with an active family who can match his energy and give him the outlet he needs to stay happy and balanced. Whether it’s hikes, agility, or a big backyard to romp in, he’s the type who wants to be included and involved. With a little time and guidance, this boy is going to be something really special. If you're ready to invest in an energetic, loyal, and lovable sidekick—Ranger is more than ready to be yours.

Marshmallow / Hannah

Australian Cattle Dog Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Female, 1 yr 2 mos

Lebanon, MO

Size

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

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hannah is a now 1+ year old Cattle Dog/Terrier mix who originally came to us as a young pup after being found on a back road with her presumed sister, Cocoa. At that time, she was the calmer and more gentle of the two — a sweet, mild-mannered girl who was a bit timid in new situations but full of quiet affection once she felt safe. Recently, Hannah found her way back to us through Animal Control. Unfortunately, her adopter did not officially surrender her, so we don’t have many details about her time away. What we do know is that Hannah developed a habit of jumping the fence and touring the neighborhood, which eventually led to neighbor complaints and her return to our care. Now a little over a year old, Hannah has gained noticeable confidence. She’s excited to meet new people, loves attention, and enjoys being part of the action. Her personality has really blossomed, and while she still appreciates reassurance and structure, she’s becoming a happy, outgoing young dog. Hannah is now likely over 50 lbs, making her a sturdy, medium-to-large girl. She would do best in a home that can provide both physical and mental stimulation, along with a securely fenced yard or supervised outdoor time, as she has shown she can be an adventurous spirit. With consistency, patience, and love, Hannah will make a loyal, fun, and devoted companion. She’s ready for a fresh start and a forever family who will give her the stability, guidance, and affection she deserves. 💛🐾

Garth

Labrador Retriever Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, 4 mos

Lebanon, MO

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Story

Garth and Wayne are the last two pups from an unwanted, accidental litter, and they are more than ready to find their forever homes. These 4-month-old Lab mixes are everything you’d hope for in growing puppies—bubbly, happy, confident, and eager to take on the world. They’re playful, social, and full of curiosity, with sweet personalities that make them easy to love. Like all puppies, Garth and Wayne are true blank slates. They are at the perfect age to begin learning what it means to be a well-mannered family companion. Puppy raising is a rewarding journey, but it does require time, patience, consistency, and commitment. They will need to be house trained, crate trained, and taught basic home manners, such as appropriate chewing, polite greetings, and how to settle calmly inside the home. Positive reinforcement, routine, and clear boundaries will help them build confidence and understand expectations. Raising a puppy also means providing proper socialization—introducing them to new people, animals, sounds, environments, and experiences in a safe and positive way. This helps them grow into well-adjusted, confident adult dogs. Daily mental and physical enrichment, including walks, playtime, training sessions, and interactive toys, will be essential to help them burn energy and develop healthy habits. Puppies thrive on structure, so establishing a consistent daily routine for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, training, and rest will set them up for success. Garth and Wayne are smart, happy boys who are excited to learn and eager to bond with their people. With guidance, patience, and love, they will grow into wonderful lifelong companions. If you’re ready for the joys and challenges of raising a puppy and want a loyal best friend by your side, Garth or Wayne may be the perfect addition to your family.
