Story
DOB: 3/7/2026                         Current Weight(as of 8/12/26): 30 Lbs Adoption Fee: $275 includes 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness. Meet Laney, an almost 6-month-old Husky/Shepherd mix who was right around 30 pounds at her spay surgery on August 12. While we can't predict exactly how big she'll be when fully grown, we're expecting her to be a large dog. Laney and her siblings came to Furry Kids after their owner was no longer able to care for them. We were also able to spay their momma, so there won't be any more accidental litters. Laney can be shy when she first meets you, but she pays close attention to what's happening around her. Once she sees her siblings getting pets and attention, she quickly realizes she's missing out and decides she wants her share too! Underneath that initial shyness is a puppy who truly craves human interaction and affection. Laney loves toys, playing with the other dogs and—perhaps most of all—playing in the kiddie pools! These puppies are such water babies that their foster family has to limit their pool time. Otherwise, they would happily spend their entire day wet! Laney is playing wonderfully with the other Furry Kids in her foster home. We haven't seen aggression or dominant behavior from any of these puppies. They even eat only a couple of feet apart and don't fight over their food. Having another confident dog in the home could be wonderful for Laney, giving her a buddy to play with and someone to help show her that new people and experiences aren't so scary. She could also thrive with a very active and interactive family willing to spend plenty of time with her. Laney is still a young puppy and will need continued training, socialization and work on her house manners. With patience and lots of positive experiences, we think this sweet girl will continue gaining confidence.   A securely fenced yard would be best for Laney. Please no apartments. If you have a little patience, plenty of love and maybe a kiddie pool waiting in the backyard, Laney would love the chance to become part of your family! Puppies are NOT housebroken and should not be expected to wait more than 1 hour for each month of age to go out to potty. Please make sure that you have a “potty plan” in place if considering adoption. All of our puppies have been spay/neuter, wormed, microchipped, and given age appropriate vaccinations. If you are interested in meeting/adopting one of them just fill out a application at www.furrykidsrefuge.org, click on the 'Adopt A Dog' icon and a dedicated volunteer will be in touch.  Furry Kids' Refuge is in need of good quality dog and puppy food with meat as the first ingredient.  You can drop off donations at our weekly adoption events at the Lee's Summit Petco (1860 NW Chipman Road, Lee's Summit, MO), Saturdays only from 11am to 2:00 p.m.  Donations are tax deductible as allowed by law.  Would you like to foster a Furry Kid? Furry Kids' Refuge will supply the food & vet care while you supply the basic house rules & love.......win-win for all!!  Just visit our website http://www.furrykidsrefuge.org/category/fostering/  for more information. Thanks for your support!

Story
Approx. DOB: 8/16/2025                  Approx Weight: 45 Lbs Adoption Fee: $250 includes a 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness!   Arthor (aka, Thor) is a sweet, happy-go-lucky, playful fellow who is believed to be about 1 year old. After a few days in his foster home, he adapted quite well to sleeping in a crate through the night, although we’re sure he’d also love to sleep in someone’s bed, if given the chance! He is mostly housebroken, being able to hold it entirely overnight. He is still young enough that he needs to be let out after a few hours during the day, although we suspect he’ll be able to make it all day over the next few months. His foster family has started him on leash walks, and he is progressing well. He has also started to play in their pool to get comfortable around water. Turns out that he’s a splasher!    He is currently living with a dachshund and a mixed breed dog about his size. He took to those two dogs immediately. Although he is sometimes a bit energetic for the dachshund (who was born a 65-yo man), he loves to play with the dog who is about his size, so he’d do particularly well in a house with a medium, large, or extra-large dog. His foster family does not have any cats or small children at home, so they do not know how he is around cats or small children. That being said, Thor has such a good nature and seems to love everyone he meets. He can chase a ball for hours (and he actually brings it back to you!), so we know he’d love to play with anyone who is old enough to do this with him. He also really loves to cuddle, and as far as he’s concerned, he is a lap dog. Thor will be a great addition to someone’s family! I have been neutered, vaccinated, heartworm tested negative, wormed and microchipped.  If you are interested in adopting me, please complete the adoption application located at www.furrykidsrefuge.org/adoptadog and a dedicated volunteer will get back to you as soon as possible. Furry Kids' Refuge is in need of good quality dog and puppy food with meat as the first ingredient.  You can drop off donations at our weekly adoption events at the Lee's Summit Petco (1860 NW Chipman Road, Lee's Summit, MO), Saturdays only from 11am to 2:00 p.m.  Donations are tax deductible as allowed by law.  Would you like to foster a Furry Kid? Furry Kids' Refuge will supply the food & vet care while you supply the basic house rules & love.......win-win for all!!  Just visit our website http://www.furrykidsrefuge.org/category/fostering/  for more information. Thanks for your support!

Approx. DOB: 3/17/23                 Approx. Weight: 43 lBS Adoption Fee: $200 includes a 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness! Miss Darla is looking for a family as wonderful as herself. Her foster mom says she is house and crate trained.  She will whine to let you know she needs to go out. Darla has loved playing with the dogs in her foster home because they are all even tempered like her. The dogs that are bossy and dominant she does not like. Darla loves to play tag, tug and chase with her furry friends.  The yard she plays in has a 4'  chain link fence and she has never tried to get out or over it.  She will sometimes play fetch unless the ball or toy interest her more then returning it... LOL. Darla has been working on walking on leash wearing a harness,  which we include with her adoption, plus her collar and leash.    I have been spayed, vaccinated, heartworm tested negative and microchipped.  If you are interested in adopting me, please complete the adoption application located at www.furrykidsrefuge.org/adoptadog and a dedicated volunteer will get back to you as soon as possible.   Furry Kids' Refuge is in need of good quality dog and puppy food with meat as the first ingredient.  You can drop off donations at our weekly adoption events at the Lee's Summit Petco (1860 NW Chipman Road, Lee's Summit, MO), Saturdays only from 11am to 2:00 p.m.  Donations are tax deductible as allowed by law.  Would you like to foster a Furry Kid? Furry Kids' Refuge will supply the food & vet care while you supply the basic house rules & love.......win-win for all!!  Just visit our website http://www.furrykidsrefuge.org/category/fostering/  for more information. Thanks for your support!

DOB: 10/16/25                         Current Weight(as of  6/16/26): 39 Lbs Adoption Fee: $275 includes 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness.   Meet Pickles – A One-of-a-Kind Beauty!   Looking for a best friend who is equal parts playful, loving, and gorgeous? Meet Pickles! This sweet girl is approximately 10 months old and is ready to find the forever family she's been waiting for.   We believe Pickles is a Labrador Retriever/Australian Shepherd mix, although she could also have a little Husky in her family tree. Since she came to us from a small rural Missouri shelter, we can't be certain of her breed or exactly how big she'll be when she's fully grown. Our best guess is that she'll mature into a medium to medium-large sized dog—a wonderful size for just about any family!   Whatever her breed mix may be, one thing is certain—she is absolutely stunning! Her beautiful mismatched eyes, one warm brown and one brilliant blue, are sure to steal your heart.   But Pickles is so much more than a pretty face. She has a wonderfully sweet personality and genuinely loves people. Whether she's making new friends or soaking up attention from her favorite humans, her happy, affectionate nature shines through. She also loves playing with the other dogs and would enjoy having a canine companion, though she'd be just as happy being the center of your world.   Like any growing puppy, Pickles has plenty of playful energy and would love a securely fenced yard where she can safely run, play, and explore. She's still working on her house training and will need a family willing to continue teaching her with patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement.   If you're looking for a loyal companion with a heart of gold, a playful spirit, and unforgettable eyes, Pickles just might be the perfect addition to your family. Come meet this beautiful girl—you'll fall in love with those striking eyes and her sweet personality the moment you meet her!  Puppies are NOT housebroken and should not be expected to wait more than 1 hour for each month of age to go out to potty.

Story
Approx. DOB:  5/15/20               Approx. Weight: 16.7 Lbs Adoption Fee: $250 includes a 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness! Meet Panda! Panda is a sweet little girl looking for a very patient adopter who understands that trust takes time. She is shy with new people and cannot be rushed or forced into accepting affection. She needs the freedom to come around at her own pace. In her foster home, it took about three months before she felt comfortable being picked up. Her trust was earned by simply sitting on the floor, offering treats, and letting her make the first move. Once Panda feels safe, the bond you'll build with her is incredibly rewarding. She is looking for a calm, quiet home with a securely fenced yard and no children. She does love other small dogs and would do best with a small doggie companion. If you're willing to give Panda the time and patience she deserves, you'll gain a loyal little companion whose trust is truly something special. I have been spayed, vaccinated, heartworm tested negative and microchipped.  If you are interested in adopting me, please complete the adoption application located at www.furrykidsrefuge.org/adoptadog and a dedicated volunteer will get back to you as soon as possible.   Furry Kids' Refuge is in need of good quality dog and puppy food with meat as the first ingredient.  You can drop off donations at our weekly adoption events at the Lee's Summit Petco (1860 NW Chipman Road, Lee's Summit, MO), Saturdays only from 11am to 2:00 p.m.  Donations are tax deductible as allowed by law.  Would you like to foster a Furry Kid? Furry Kids' Refuge will supply the food & vet care while you supply the basic house rules & love.......win-win for all!!  Just visit our website http://www.furrykidsrefuge.org/category/fostering/  for more information. Thanks for your support!
