Story
COURTESY LISTINGCOURTESY LISTINGPlease contact Timothy Casteel 816-853-0482for more information! Hi! My name is Henry James. I’m a ten month old Siberian Husky. I am full of energy. I play well with my dog friends. I have not been around cats or children to know if I am compatible. My current mom and dad adopted me last June. They have worked really hard to find the food that I like, to crate train me, to house train me, and to love me. I really love, love, love to play - inside and outside. My mom and dad had a life change that will take them on the road for extended periods of time. Because of this, I’m looking for a new forever home. My new home will need to continue working on my training. I come when called; I sit on command; I show them what I want through my behavior. I am neutered and my vaccinations are current. I am walked on lead with a harness. My backyard is rather large. That is where I run free. Mom and dad don’t let me run free outside. I like being with someone, and I like hanging out in the yard by myself. Please contact my dad for additional information.

Story
Approx. DOB: 3/1/25                 Approx Weight: 75 Lbs Adoption Fee: $300 includes a 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness! John Wayne aka Johnny is a gorgeous yellow lab weighing 75pds. We guess him to be anywhere from 10 months to a year old, so he still has some growing to do. He is just an extra-large sweet boy who loves everyone he meets. Johnny is super confident with a big puppy personality.  He loves playing with the other dogs, but we have learned that most dogs under 50 pounds can't handle his rough play style. He isn't aggressive or dominate but his being a huge puppy he thinks every dog is a big puppy. Johnny has a best friend who loves to play with him. We noticed if he starts playing a little too rough she  will correct him with a quick growl. He will immediately act submissive. She weighs 55 pds. Johnny doesn't want to do anything but play.  After playing for about 30 minutes he is usually ready to rest.  He is definitely NOT a super active guy. Just a regular lab personality. Super sweet, loving,  goofy and playful. He is just a all around wonderful pup. Johnny would be great with most any family. If you have a cat we are able to test him to be sure he is good around them.    Johnny is in a small boarding facility waiting for a foster home to open up. We do know he has been great when crated. Give this big, gorgeous, goofy boy a chance. There is a 2 week trial to help insure your happiness and his.     We are working with him on leash training. He is a work in progress. Johnny wants to please his humans. He craves human contact.    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!

Story
Approx. DOB: 3/12/21                Approx. Weight: 40 Lbs Adoption Fee: $200 includes a 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness! Callie can climb chain link fences so a wood or wrought iron fence would work best or an active family that will take her on walks. She loves going for walks, jogs and runs! Hi, I'm Callie.I am roughly 3.5 years old and full of lots of energy. I love my humans, especially the little ones - they're my favorite people. I love other dogs but need to be in a home with other dogs my size because I sometimes forget how big I am compared to the little ones. I don't mind cats too much, but sometimes they scare me. I get a bath once a month and I need my nails trimmed every two weeks.I love to play outside, but it's best if a friend goes with me because I get the zoomie zooms and I can jump pretty high, sometimes over a fence or up a tree. I'm not quite sure about toys, but am slowly learning to play with them. Sometimes it's hard for me to tell if it's a dog toy or human toy, so I'll need help learning which ones are mine. I graduated from K-9 citizenship school and my trainer says I'm the best girl and I can sit, shake, laydown and sometimes stay, although we're still working on that. So sometimes I'll dart out the front door, so be sure to tell me to sit and stay before you open the door. I don't really mind the kennel for short periods of time if you give me something to chew on. I need help during the Fourth of July, the big booms really scare me, so please ask the doctor for medicine to help keep me calm.I love my kibble, but if you could make it wet in the morning - that's my favorite way to eat it. I eat about two cups of food a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. I don't usually eat more than that, but on days that I'm extra active, I might need more. Callie was just treated for heartworms so it is very important that she stay on heartworm prevention year round for the rest of her life.  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!

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!

Story
Approx. DOB:  10/3/24                Approx Weight: 14.6 Lbs Adoption Fee: $275 includes a 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness!                       Hershey is full grown at 14pds! Hershey was released to rescue by the owner who said he didn't want him but gave no reason why. We have found this small guy to be really sweet and loving. He isn't the type of fella that likes being held very long. Probably due to his young, active personality. Hershey loves being petted and sitting on your lap. Hershey loves meeting new people and can come off as being shy. It doesn't last long because he wants all the loving he can get. He has been great meeting new dogs. Hershey is submissive at first until he knows the dog is friendly. We have taken him on a few walks and he seems to enjoy them. He wears a harness and it will go home with him when adopted. We also send him to his new home with a collar and leash.  He has done really well being crated. We have been working on the marking by having him wear a belly band that deters this. He seems to be really smart and he is eager to please his humans. We will send one home with him when he is adopted. He will also go home with a collar and leash.  Hershey loves his toys. So far none have been destroyed. We can cat test him if needed. Hershey is going to make some lucky family happy when they adopt him. Give this little guy a chance and fill out the application. Our small dogs tend to get adopted quickly.  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.
