Approx. DOB: 7/11/2026                        Current Weight(as of 9/24/26): 7 Lbs Adoption Fee: $275 includes 1 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness.  Meet Neva! Born 7/11/26 | Beagle Mix | Female Neva may be a little girl, but she has a BIG personality and a whole lot of love to give! This adorable Toy Fox Terrier mix puppy is playful, curious, and always ready for her next adventure. Neva loves running around, playing with her favorite toys, and having fun with her furry friends. She’s full of puppy energy, but once playtime is over, she’s happy to work on another very important puppy skill—becoming an expert cuddler! ❤️ Like any young puppy, Neva is still learning. She’s currently working hard on potty training and her puppy manners and will need a family willing to continue helping her learn with patience and consistency. Neva will need another dog in her forever home to be her companion, playmate, and help build her confidence. She will also need a securely fenced yard where she can safely run, play, explore, and put that Beagle nose to work! Neva is sweet, silly, playful, and ready to grow up with a family of her very own. She may be tiny now, but she has enough love and personality to fill an entire house! 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
DOB:  3/28/26                                Current Weight(as of 9/1/26): 37 Lbs Adoption Fee: $275 includes 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness. Meet Murphy!  Murphy is your typical Doodle/Pointer pup — full of love, fun, and puppy energy! At approximately 6 months old, this handsome boy is ready to find a family who will keep up with his playful spirit and give him all the love and attention he deserves.  One of Murphy’s favorite things is being close to his people. He will happily melt right against you, look up with those beautiful, bright brown eyes, and soak up all the cuddles you’re willing to give. ❤️ He also loves playing with toys, romping around with his humans, and having a good time!  Murphy loves other dogs and would enjoy having a canine friend to play with. If you have cats, we can test him to see how he does with them. He previously lived in a home with children, so he has experience being around kids.   This boy is also very athletic and surprisingly determined! Murphy has figured out how to climb over a 6-foot chain-link fence, so his new family will need to take his athletic abilities seriously. We don't believe a solid wood privacy fence or wrought iron fence would present the same challenge, but we are happy to discuss other ways to keep Murphy active, entertained, and safely contained.  The good news is that Murphy is a great walking buddy! He walks very nicely with his harness, and his harness will go home with him, along with a collar and leash.  Murphy is still a puppy, so he's looking for a family who understands that puppies come with energy, curiosity, and a little bit of mischief. In return, you'll get a sweet, affectionate, playful boy who will keep you smiling and give you plenty of love.  If you're looking for a fun-loving, athletic pup who wants to be part of the family, Murphy may be your guy!    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.

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.
