Story
Vicky is just over a year old and she is full of SPUNK. This girl will keep you on your toes. If you want a lazy, calm dog...she is not girl! That isn't to say she can't calm down, because she can...but if she has a choice she wants to go and see what life has to offer. Vicky is dog unsure. She doesn't seem to have had proper socialization with dogs and has no idea how to behave. She's totally all about her person though. She knows how to sit and she is HIGHLY food motivated. I mean I think this girl would do anything for her kibbles! She's got the energy and the passion to learn a lot. Vicky is probably 65-70 pounds. She's spayed, vaccinated, heartworm negative, and microchipped. Vicky's adoption fee is $200. At Autumn Acres Animal Rescue we believe each individual animal matters. We take in special cases some of which will stay with us as a sanctuary dog.If the animal is listed as a Socially Imperfect Dog this means they have special needs and special requirements for potential adopters.If the animal is listed as a Socially Imperfect RESIDENT this animal is NOT available for adoption and is one of our sanctuary residents.

Story
Clyde has survived the unimaginable. During the artic temperatures he was on a chain with minimal shelter and no regular feedings. He survived...others did not. Clyde has some MAJOR food issues. He was deprived for so long with such sporadic feedings that it will take him quite awhile to realize he will not be hungry anymore. The investigative team with the Missouri Humane Society helped with this situation and they took several of the adult dogs. We had committed to 2. Clyde was one of the ones we were given. He was having a very difficult time gaining weight at the humane society. This isn't uncommon...a dog that doesn't handle being caged well will sometimes spin/react poorly and be unable to hold their weight and gaining weight would be really difficult. We are also a facility based rescue...so we were unsure if he'd do better with us...but he has THRIVED. Clyde is now a tank lol and loving life. He's sweet with people, and good with dogs for the most part. Seems to prefer females and best to feed him separately. Clyde has completed the first half of his heartworm treatment and has one more month of treatment to go thru. We'd LOVE to find him a foster to adopt home. His photos do not do him justice. He's probably a basset pitty mix. He's got short little legs and looks so much taller than he actually is. Follow us on Facebook to keep updated on him! Search for Autumn Acres Animal Rescue.

Story
Giovanni and his siblings were left near a field in rural Missouri. Luckily some good Samaritans spotted them and were able to get 3 of the 4 caught. We worked with volunteer dog trappers to get the last pup caught. These boys are thin and most of them have eye issues. They will be heading to our vet in gladstone for treatment. We are looking desperately for foster homes for each of these pups. They need separated from each other, they need regular feedings, and some tlc as they heal from their surgery. Medical expenses are paid for and we use Animal Clinic of the Woodlands in Gladstone...so foster/adoptive home MUST be able to pick up and drop off their pup at that vet as needed. These boys are TALL and all gangly legged. We aren't sure if they have bloodhound/lab or dane/hound/lab...but these are BIG BOYS. Please reach out to us if you can foster or are interested in adopting one. Giovanni is coming out of his shell and loves petting. He's still unsure around other dogs, but he's learning the other dogs just want to play and have fun. At Autumn Acres Animal Rescue we believe each individual animal matters.

Good with dogs,
Story
Caldwell survived a place other dogs didn't. He went thru hell and he's learning that life is still GOOD and he's loving that. Caldwell seems to adore other dogs and he wants one to buddy up to so bad. Caldwell is a gorgeous velvet tan/blue color and he has stunning eyes. One is more blue the other kind of blends in with his colors. He's a nervous boy about people and handling. He playbows and bounces around but he doesn't always trust humans intentions when they head towards him and he wants to get away. He's making great progress though and will come up to me for petting when he's out with my dogs. Another dog would likely be required in his new home to help him fully integrate. Caldwell is ready for a new home. He's neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and he tested negative for heartworms. At Autumn Acres Animal Rescue we believe each individual animal matters.

Not good with kids, Good with cats,
Story
Renegade came to us in 2015 as a 4-6 month old pup. She was on the urgent list at the Kansas City shelter: "***Rescue Only - Pup was brought to the shelter by animal control. It appears that she has had no previous human socialization and is very defensive when staff attempts to interact with her." Most ferals you work with will shut down, and curl up, and not really think about biting the thing scaring them. Renegade was different (hence her name). She will defend herself and will try to scare strangers away before they ever get near her. She eventually bonded to us and we could handle her and pet her and she'd curl up in a ball and allow the touching without defending herself. She'd wag her tail for us, and get excited to see us but then if you reached for her she'd run to her safe spot (an open wire crate) and curl up. With time, patience, and consistency she will now just cower down for petting, not run away. She WANTS the petting. She's so happy with us, dances around wagging her tail, gives us little kisses, loves treats, but when you reach for her she'll cower down and wait for the petting. The feral dog in her. With strangers, she acts like she's a guard dog and tries to scare them away...but with treats, time, and love she'll warm up to you. Renegade loves it here, she's safe here, but if a skilled, special person was interested in her...she is available for adoption. In the wrong home Renegade would bite someone. So we will be thorough in our screening of potential homes. Because of her trust/fear issues the potential adopter would need to come to our property to meet her 2-3 times a week for 3-6 weeks in a row to build a bond with her. Socially Imperfect...but still worth it. Renegade is a happy dog, who loves life, loves to play with other dogs, and deserves to live. She's a perfect example of why we do what we do. Just because she's not a 'normal' dog doesn't mean she doesn't deserve to live. Check out this video of her playing: https://www.facebook.com/AutumnAcres/posts/3285192524848339 Renegade doesn't have a sponsor. Want to help provide toys, treats, and routine medical care for her? Become her sponsor! $100 a month is all we need to help provide for her. At Autumn Acres Animal Rescue we believe each individual animal matters.

Story
Updated Bio as of June 2023: Jupiter was originally found as a lost pup with her 2 brothers in a corn field during winter. She nearly froze to death, she was so cold she couldn't run/move quickly and people were able to catch her. They were all very thin and had to fight to survive with the coyotes out there. Jupiter is learning to trust humans and will be a happy dog around me but still skittish over touch. With new people she will take time to warm up for sure. Jupiter's adoption fee is sponsored. She is ok with other dogs but initially acts like she's aggressive. It's the survival mode in her. Once she knows they aren't going to hurt her she warms up. She will need to be fed separately from other animals. At Autumn Acres Animal Rescue we believe each individual animal matters. We take in special cases some of which will stay with us as a sanctuary dog.If the animal is listed as a Socially Imperfect Dog this means they have special needs and special requirements for potential adopters.If the animal is listed as a Socially Imperfect RESIDENT this animal is NOT available for adoption and is one of our sanctuary residents.
