Story
At 7 years old, Mya is ready to finally live the good life she’s always deserved. This medium sized sweetheart found herself in a Kansas shelter, abandoned with her litter of puppies. Though a little sickly and worn down when she arrived, her gentle soul and quiet strength was evident from the start. A heartworm diagnosis might have slowed others down, but not Mya. She breezed through treatment like she knew her happy ending was finally on the horizon. Since arriving in rescue, Mya has been soaking up the love (and a few extra snacks) in foster care, and honestly, she’s earned every bite. She’s easygoing with other dogs, a bit timid but respectful of cats, and adores humans of all ages. She’s housebroken and doesn’t need to be kenneled, but will tolerate a crate with a dramatic sigh. She does get a little excited on walks, especially when she spots other dogs or friendly strangers, and she absolutely loves her outdoor adventures. With her short legs, long body, and expressive shepherd eyes, we THINK Mya might be some sort of squatty German Shepherd Corgi mix... but what we know for sure is that she’s 100 percent mixed breed good girl. Mya’s perfect day? A slow morning cuddle on the couch, a nice sniffy walk, a sunny spot for napping, and being wherever you are. She's loyal, cuddly, and still has a spark for adventure, just waiting for someone to share it with. She’s fully vetted with vaccines, spay, microchip and ready to go. All she needs now is a family who will love her as much as she loves them. Could that be you?

Story
Lady is very gentle. She is extremely affectionate and once she latches on to you, she will follow you everywhere you go. She has never been in a crate or restrained in any way and I will not allow her to be adopted by anyone who will do so. She rarely barks, generally only when someone comes to the door and that's because she is nosey and thinks everyone who comes to the door is there for her. She can be protective however. We had burglar once and she went into full protective mode and scared him off before he could take anything. She is 7 years old but doesn't show any signs of age related problems. I am looking for a home for Lady that will be filled with love and attention for her. She is very sensitive and her feelings get hurt very quickly if you yell at her for any reason. Since she is so big, 110 lbs and tends to follow you around she sometimes gets in the way , but she is very good about listening when you tell her to move.

Story
I got Bishop when he was 8 weeks old from a breeder in Missouri. He is a 3-year-old intact male born on April 25th. He's very smart and learns quickly. My work life has increased, and I just recently got out of a relationship and can't do it alone. I'm looking for someone that has experience training GSDs, is a strong leader, and is patient enough to go through this tough separation from his family that he is going to experience. Once you build a relationship with him, he will be attached to you, protect you, and all the good things that come with a dog that loves their person. He can be a defensive and anxious dog, but with the right guidance he is an excellent dog. Due to my recurring work absence, he has developed separation anxiety, and I haven't had the time to tackle this issue and no longer have someone that can help me with this issue. He loves playing with a frisbee or a ball and does well in training with them. He is a nervous dog so he will need someone that is calm and firm

Story
Nora is a gorgeous young German Shepherd who is growing like a weed! She came into rescue from a local family who had an oops litter and were overwhelmed by the care the litter needed as they grew. Nora came into rescue skinny and pretty scared of new things but she settled in quickly to her foster home and is now looking for her very own forever home.  Nora was born Feb 17, 2025.  Nora LOVES to play and in true German Shepherd fashion anything that can go in her mouth, will go in her mouth. She is teething so she will need a variety of puppy safe toys to keep her occupied and prevent chewing on unwanted things in her new home. She is kennel trained and mostly potty trained but she is still a baby, so she needs supervision and regular potty breaks. Nora currently lives with dogs of varying sizes and is friendly to all of them, but is a little too rough for the small dog so she may do best in a home with dogs that aren’t deterred by large rambunctious puppies.  Nora is not suited for apartments or a home with cats at this time. To help pay for vet bills and care (transportation, food, toys, etc..) a $250 donation is requested at the time of adoption. All of our adoptions are contingent upon an approved application, home visit, reference check, obedience training agreement, and signing of adoption contract. All our dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped before adoption. Our dogs are companion animals that live indoors as part of your family. Please do not apply if your plan is to have them as outside dogs, garage dogs, porch dogs or outside kennel dogs.  We do not ship dogs.   All of our dogs are in private foster homes. We are not a shelter with hours. A visit can be arranged after an adoption questionnaire has been filled out and sent in. Please try to email first. We are all volunteers that work so we can not easily take or make phone calls.June 23, 2025, 1:02 pm
