Story
🐾 Meet Beeker — A Friendly, Happy-Go-Lucky Jack Russell Terrier Looking for His Next Chapter Beeker is a 5-year-old Jack Russell Terrier with a bright spirit, a gentle heart, and a sweet, easygoing personality. His world is changing quickly — his owner is transitioning to a nursing home — and now this lovable little guy is ready to find a new family to call his own. 💛 Personality & Home Life Beeker is a true cuddle bug who wants nothing more than to be someone’s quiet little shadow. He’ll follow you around with his tail softly wagging, perfectly content just to be near you. He’s affectionate, calm, and happy-natured — the kind of companion who makes every day feel a little lighter. He’s housebroken and crate trained, and he has great manners in the home. He’s social without being overwhelming and settles beautifully once he knows he’s safe and loved. 🐶 Dogs, Kids & Social Life Beeker has lived mostly as a solo dog, so he doesn’t have a ton of day-to-day dog experience — but when he does meet other pups, he handles it well. Here’s what we know: • He may bark at dogs walking by (he has opinions!) • He gets along well with dogs at the dog park • He has done well with kids in prior interactions • Cats are unknown With respectful introductions and a chill canine friend, he could absolutely be successful in a multi-dog home. If you’re looking for a sweet, people-loving, loyal little shadow who’s ready for a fresh start, Beeker might be your perfect match. 🐾💙 Let’s help him find the home he deserves. ----------------------------------------- If you’re interested in adopting, please apply online at mscrescue.org/adopt.

Story
🐈🐱🐈 Cat-friendly 🐈🐱🐈 Turn that frown upside-down! With Eddie, the glass is always half full. He’s so happy, and you can’t help but see the bright side 🌞 of everything when you’re with him. Eddie has two modes: play or sleep. Well, kinda three modes, if you want to get technical. The third one is ball mode! He is so obsessed with playing ball, that he would play all day if he could. He walks very well on a leash and would be great company on a stroll or for errands. He wants to be with his person as much as possible, awwww Eddie 🥰 He knows sit, and of course he knows fetch. 🥎 Eddie is a 9-year-old Jack Russell Terrier who weighs 19 pounds, and he’s crate trained and house trained. He should be in a home with adult humans, and he’d do best in a quiet, predictable environment. He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and current on flea/tick/heartworm preventatives. His adoption fee is $225. To meet him, get approved to adopt at PawsitiveTailsKC.org. 🖤🤎❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤍💜💙💚💛🧡❤️🤎🖤 APPLY @ PawsitiveTailsKC.org 🖤🤎❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤍💜💙💚💛🧡❤️🤎🖤

Story
Ace is an 8 month old male, purebred jack russell terrier. He is super playful, loving, & the best cuddle buddy. He’s very smart & will do/learn just about anything for a treat. He loves people & other dogs (not sure about cats). He has tons of personality and will make you laugh all the time. One of his many quirks is he LOVES ice cubes, anytime I’m in the freezer to fill up my water bottle he appears at my feet lol. For his new home I’m looking for someone who has a lot of time to spend to give him the attention & enrichment that he needs. He’s high energy and loves outdoors, so someone down for adventure and regular exercise & activities would be a perfect match for him. He could easily thrive in a household with other dogs, but specifically dogs with his temperament and energy level (an older dog would probably get sick of him as he’s a BIG player, so he needs a playmate).

Story
Jack is a purebred jack russell terrier who will be 2 years old on 4/9/26. He has lots of personality and will never fail to make you laugh. He’s loving, cuddly, playful, and vocal! He is also SUPER smart and knows almost all of the tricks you could think of including “playing dead”, he’s recently even learned to turn light switches off. For his new home I’m looking for someone who can give him the attention and love he needs. He is a super active dog and very toy driven (specifically chew toys and squeaker toys). Someone who lives an active lifestyle with a yard to run and play would be a perfect fit for Jack. He is good with people and kids, and other dogs his size (not typically bigger dogs and not sure about cats). He’s coming from a home with another JRT and they get along great, but Jack has major main character energy and could also thrive in a home as the only animal!

Story
This is Frank. He is a very active little guy and needs places to run. He hates his kennel, but can stay in for small amounts of time. Do not recommend apartment living at all for this pup. He has some extreme anxiety getting his nails cut. He’s had to do sedated nail trims twice. He is fully neutered and loves runs at the dog park. He does well off leash and attaches nicely. We have three small children and he is very good with them, but will snatch food out of someone’s hands if he has the opportunity. I do not recommend having small animals at home (bunnies, lizards, and such.) Loves long walks, treats and being UNDER the blanket. Very snuggly little guy. Needs help with housebreaking and consistent schedules. Overall, he is a wonderful dog with some anxious habits.
