Story
Rip is a very sweet dog with lots of energy would like room to play. Due to a dog allergy I recently discovered it's with a heavy heart I am forced to rehome him. He loves to ride with you in or on any vehicle he can and will play with his tennis ball as long as you will throw it. He also loves water and playing in his large kiddie pool. Rip would make a great addition to your family. He is so smart and just needs someone to work with him. He already sits and he will shake. We got him neutered after he turned a year old and he had already had his puppy shots when he came to us. Please consider giving Rip a chance. He does good with bigger dogs but not sure about very small dogs. We have 2 cats and he doesn't seem to bother them. He has not been around extremely small children but does great with older children. Please consider giving Rip a chance.

Story
Sam is approximately 4 to 5 years old. He came to me as a stray. He and my dog became immediate buddies so I kept him. Both dogs require 1 on 1 and don't have the time. I'm unable to walk them together as they are both enthusiastic doggos. I've given them a large enclosure but that, of course, doesn't satisfy the need for attention. Sam loves treats-he has a gentle mouth and does not snatch treats from the hand-brushing, hugs and walks. A good chew treat will entertain him for hours. I'm more than happy to update shots. This guy is a teddybear. He doesn't really bark, but he will talk to you in doggo lingo and likes to make direct eye contact. I have a cat, and they only meet through the fence, but he does not act aggressive, he just sniffs her. Please give him the home he deserves.

Cosmo

Labrador Retriever Australian Shepherd

Male, Adult
Oak Grove, MO
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Cosmo is incredibly smart and very skilled at catching. He’s extremely fast and loves to play as often as he can! He will play catch, frisbee, or tug of war and he loves to tumble around with other dogs. He LOVES to play in water. He has been around mainly other big/medium dogs. He has been around small dogs as well just not very often (a chihuahua/dachshund mix and a beagle). He is fine around kids for the most part but he doesn’t do well if he has a bone. For that reason we are looking for a home without kids unless the new owner is a trainer OR has previous experience with resource guarding. He has no issues sharing toys or water with other dogs, not sure about bones/food as we have never tried since he’s the only dog in our house. He would be an amazing companion for anyone who loves outdoor adventures like hiking, disc golf/frisbee, kayaking, etc. His new owner will inherit (if they want it) 2 kennels, his food with plastic storage container, any current toys, and leash/collar.

Mowgli

Labrador Retriever Bluetick Coonhound

Male, Adult
Oak Grove, MO
Size
(when grown) X-Large 101 lbs (46 kg) or more
Details
Good with kids, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Mowgli is a big dog with an even bigger heart. Some dear friends got him as a puppy and he was raised with their young children and chickens. Their home and yard weren’t big enough and we had just moved to some property, so Mowgli joined our family of 3 young kids and another dog. He was a great fit and has been a tremendous blessing through some wonderful and difficult times. He is very gentle with our kids and allows our 4th to crawl/pull/play all over him without so much at a complaint. He is very protective of the family. While he still has some energy, he's definitely no longer in his puppy stage. We are in the process of some big life changes and it’s not for his best to continue on with us - we’re hoping to find a great home for him with a family that will love him like we do. We’re not asking for a fee for rehoming - just a great fit and great family.

Story
We adopted Uzi. He is docile and sweet. He just needs more care the. We can give. He needs someone who has time to train him and be home with him more. He does have a loud deep bark that when someone who doesn’t know him comes over may scare them. He isn’t aggressive though. Just needs more love and attention. He will make a great watch dog for anyone.
