Story
I found Daisy as a stray. She came up to me and it was love at first sight. She instantly loved my husband as well. Unfortunately she does not get along with my other dogs or my son when inside the house. Outside of the home she does great. She loves cuddles and walks and would be an amazing companion for a single person or couple with no other pets. She would also thrive as an outside dog.

Story
Roux is an 85-pound gentle soul with a heart as big as his smile. At around 8–9 years old, this handsome mixed-breed boy is firmly in his “retirement era” — and he wears it beautifully. Roux has shown nothing but quiet resilience and kindness. He’s currently thriving in a foster home of his own, where he enjoys peaceful days, leisurely walks with his foster dad, and long, well-earned naps afterward. Despite his size, Roux has a soft spot for the little ones — he absolutely loves small dogs and even tiny puppies. He also has “grandkids” who visit a couple times a week, and he does wonderfully with them. Roux is trusted to roam freely in his foster home and is never kenneled. Medically, Roux has a medium heart murmur that does not require medication at this time — just routine monitoring at his annual veterinary visits. Roux is searching for a calm, loving home where he can enjoy cozy days, gentle walks, and all the affection he deserves. If you’re looking for a loyal companion to share quiet moments and unconditional love, Roux may be your perfect match. This pet is up for adoption through one of our trusted rescue partners, Rescue K-911. He or she is currently in one of their fabulous foster homes. If you would like more information on this pet please reach out to Rescue K-911 directly: (913) 543-1364 rescuek911ks@gmail.com http://k911foundation.com

Story
Easy-going guy who enjoys long walks on the leash, sunbathing in the yard, and shamelessly demanding head scratches. I get along great with other dogs and kids—basically, I’m everyone’s favorite dinner guest. Looking For: A forever family who appreciates my mature charm, loves a good cuddle session, and will share snacks without asking too many questions. Bonus points if you have a nice patio. Riff Raff recently went on a Dogs Day Out, and here is what the volunteer had to say - “ Riff Raff is such an easy-going companion! On our Doggy Day Outs, he loves riding in the car and looking out the window, calm and happy the whole way. Once we get to the park, he is all about exploring! Taking his time to sniff around and enjoy every new scent. He’s curious but relaxed, making him the perfect buddy for peaceful walks or easygoing adventures!”
