Story
Scar & Nala are a duo! They are brother and sister so they are stuck like glue! Scar (half face) loves to play with balls/fetch. While Nala would rather chew up a snuffed animal. They love to wrestle, go on walks , and just cuddle with the humans! They are great with kids, No other cats or dogs! They are hyper dogs, lots and lots of energy. They knows some commands. Sit, lay down, stay, shake. They will need some training. I am pregnant with 3 other kids. My husband works nights and is hard for me to give them the attention they need. They will jump the fence. I have them on chains for the yard. Please help me find them the most loving home.

Story
Kiara is an AKC registered Samoyed. She is just under a year old, spayed, UTD with shots. She gets along with dogs, loves kids, and even likes our cat (our cat doesn't share those feelings). She knows certain commands, such as sit, lay, shake, and sometimes twirl. She's food motivated and learns tricks in a matter of minutes. She is crate trained, not fully housebroken. We are just not equipped to give her what she needs to live her best life. We will consider applicants willing to pick up ONLY. We will not ship Kiara. She resides in the Kansas City area.

Story
Little Miss Winnie came in as a stray, so we do not know her history, but while she has been as the shelter she has been a good girl. She is shy at first but warms up to new people. She seems to be dog selective. It appears she would be great at being the only dog or need slow introductions to other dogs. She has responded better with male dogs. Though she may be older she still loves her toys If you would like to meet Winnie and see if she would be a fit for your family, contact Oak Grove Animal Control and Shelter at 816-690-3773 ext, 1006

Story
Cooper is an older gentleman weighing around 75 pounds. But don't tell him he is a senior or a big dog. He thinks he's young and smaller than he is. He loves his toys and going on walks, so he take in all the different smells. Cooper came in as a stray and has been a good boy at the shelter. He seems to like other dogs. Cats, well, he would need to learn that they don't like to play "Pounce the kitty" If you would like to meet this guy, please contact Oak Grove Animal Control and Shelter at 816-690-3773 ext. 1006
