Story
Sweet Maize (May-zee) needs a lot of attention. Adopted her from a shelter and have worked on her anxiety issues. She has come a long way She is good with cats and MOST dogs. One of our dogs is high energy and prone to aggression toward her. She deserves a safer space than we can provide. She exhibits PTSD-like behavior and needs a calm place with a regular routine. She is wary around men, and it takes a long time for her to accept them around.. She will not hurt kids, but the activity level may be a challenge for her. She needs a very patient female around willing to get her integrated into a new environment. She does okay on field trips with her person. Regular outings to regular places helps. She has been here over a year, and we’ve learned her needs and her challenges. I will be picky about placement, and rehoming will be with the agreement that if she is not a good fit, she is returned to us (not a shelter) as we try again. Fee includes crate etc. so she has familiar items.

Story
🐈🐱🐈 Cat-friendly 🐈🐱🐈 Forget that whole “be still my heart” thing. We don’t want our heart to be still – we want it pumping with happiness and excitement, because we loooooove a friendly dog! 🐾 🐶 🐾 💓 Corazon 💓 is just the kind of heart-starter we’re talking about, and he has that special somethin-somethin at a young age that makes you know he’s gonna be a terrific companion. He is a 5-month-old German Shepherd mix, and we think he’ll be around 60 pounds full grown. He starts out kinda shy, so give him a little bit to warm up when you first meet him. He is social in a gentle way, and he likes to be playful and active. All of the toys are on his favorites list, from hard chew toys to soft squeakers, so you can’t go wrong when you’re toy shopping. He’ll make playtime fun and cute no matter who’s involved. Corazon likes all people once he gets acquainted, getting along equally well with kids and adults. He’s great with other dogs as well, and would love to live somewhere that he can have a regular canine playmate or two – either in his house, nearby, or in the family. He also does just fine with cats. He sits on command, and he walks well on a leash already. He is crate trained, and he’s getting better with house training every day. If your heart is already going pitter-patter, wait until you hear about how cuddly Corazon is with his favorite people. Gah, he’s the best! You will forever have a shadow, as he’ll follow you wherever you go and whatever you’re doing – very helpful when you need a supervisor to keep you on task. 🛠️🔩 🧰 Corazon will come home to you neutered, microchipped and up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccines, as well as current on flea/tick prevention and heartworm preventative. His adoption fee is $275. Meet & greets will be scheduled with approved adopters from PawsitiveTailsKC.org. 🖤🤎❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤍💜💙💚💛🧡❤️🤎🖤 APPLY @ PawsitiveTailsKC.org 🖤🤎❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤍💜💙💚💛🧡❤️🤎🖤

Story
Valorie is still just a young girl, but she’s been through so much. There’s a reason we spell her name the way we do: She has displayed a lot of valor. We are bound and determined to turn Valorie’s life around so she can experience the love of people and know that she is safe and cared for, furever. Valorie came to us with not one but two broken legs. She is now healed from her second surgery, and the vets think she’ll be able to run, play and jump like a regular dog with no lasting physical effects. However, because the injuries happened at the hands of humans, she still bears some emotional scars. Here are some things that bring her joy: 🐕🐩🐕 Other dogs! She loves them so purely and trusts them completely 💦💧💦 Water. She plays in the creek at her foster’s house and has a blast, and she doesn’t mind the rain or storms at all. 🌤🌷🌳 Being outside. She wants to go, go, go, whether she’s in the yard or on a leash walk. 🚗 Car rides 🌭🍔🍦Food and treats – the way to Valorie’s heart is through yummy eats 🤸‍♀️ 🐾 😴 Her energy level will match your energy – from adventure time to lazy time She knows sit, down, come, kisses & kennel and is learning more basic commands. Walks are exciting, & she pulls a little at first, then settles into a nice pace with you. She is house-trained and bell-trained, & she sleeps in her crate at night. Valorie is very gentle with kids who are respectful to dogs and who know that she will need space at first. Then, she will love and protect them hard. So kids are fine but cats are a 'no' for this girl. She is bashful because of her past and may startle at sudden noises and movements, especially at first. She will need some time – likely days or even weeks – to acclimate to her new home, before many new people or visitors start showing up. Valorie will continually remind you what life is all about and keep you focused on all the joys there are to behold. Want to be her forever hero? Apply to adopt her today. She is spayed, up-to-date on vaccines and microchipped, plus current on preventatives for heartworm and flea/tick. Her adoption fee is $175. 🖤🤎❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 APPLY @ PawsitiveTailsKC.org 💜💙💚💛🧡❤️🤎🖤

Nordic is the last of the Olympic Litter, and he’s the best doggone boy! We keep telling him his family is out there. Here’s his wish list: ✔️ An active family/couple/single who loves adventures and walks. ✔️ Someone who wants to train him and make him use that big brain of his. ✔️ An owner who will reward him with lots of yummy treats. ✔️ A yard to run in. ✔️ Another dog to play with would be wonderful but not required. In return, he promises: ♦️ To keep working on house training — he’s SO close to having it mastered. ♦️ To always be a good boy in his crate and sleep through the night. ♦️ To look at you adoringly with those sincere brown eyes ♦️ To give lots of snuggles and play whenever you’re ready. ♦️ To guard the house and keep his people safe Nordic is 3 months old. His mama is a purebred German Shepherd, and his dad is a mystery. He’ll likely be 65 pounds or more. He’s neutered, microchipped, and up to date on puppy vaccines.

Story
💙 💛 🖤 💚 ❤️ Cue the music. On your marks, get set, race! We hope you get a good launch off the starting line, because the competition is going to be world-class to meet these gold-medal-winning* puppies. Here is the Olympic Litter: Nordic and Olympic Oko, both are boys. Their mama is a purebred German Shepherd, and dad is a mystery. They’ll be large dogs, likely 65+ pounds. *They aren’t actually gold medalists. But we think they should be in contention for any number of international prizes 🏆 like Best Fluffy Run, Cutest Puppy-Dog Eyes and Most Adorable Napping. If you want to dispute any of these, you can take your allegations straight to the Puppy Dog Governing Body. 🥇🥇 These pups have learned so much in their own Olympic Village, a.k.a. foster home, being socialized and exposed to people and other dogs. They are ready to compete at the next level for year-round training on how to be the best dog in the world. And you can be the one cheering them on! Each of them will come to you spayed/neutered, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccines and microchipped, plus current on heartworm/flea/tick preventatives. Their adoption fee is $275. Meet & greets will be scheduled with approved adopters from PawsitiveTailsKC.org. 🖤🤎❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤍💜💙💚💛🧡❤️🤎🖤 APPLY @ PawsitiveTailsKC.org 🖤🤎❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤍💜💙💚💛🧡❤️🤎🖤
