Story
Meet Wilson 🤍 11-Year-Old Maltese/Poodle/Bichon Mix | Adult-Only Home Needed After 11 years with his family, a recent change in the home (a young child) means we now have to find him a new environment where he can feel safe, understood, and at ease. Wilson isn’t a perfect dog for everyone but in the right home, he will absolutely shine. ✨ Wilson’s Ideal Home • Adult-only (no children) • No other pets • Calm, predictable environment • Someone patient who understands dog body language and boundaries ✨ The Wilson You’ll Fall In Love With • A professional napper (couch + pillow pile preferred) • Loyal companion who loves being near his person • Walk enthusiast & neighborhood watcher • Crate trained and well-established in his routine • Sleeps in bed and fully believes that’s where he belongs • Takes his nightly Greenie very seriously • Loves carrots, peanut butter, and any “snack opportunity” Wilson is affectionate and enjoys snuggling — but on his terms. He bonds deeply with his person and thrives when he feels respected and understood. ✨ What to Know Wilson has clear boundaries and communicates them. He may growl or lunge if those boundaries aren’t respected, especially around: • Unwanted handling • Faces too close to his face • Multiple people interacting with him at once • Other animals or children His family has worked closely with their vet and explored training and medications. At the end of the day, they feel this is just who Wilson is… he just needs the right match to thrive. He needs a quiet home, a cozy routine, and a person who “gets it.” And for the right person, Wilson will be an incredibly loyal, comforting little companion 🤍 Wilson is eligible for our Foster-to-Adopt program, which means you can take some time to get to know him in your home before finalizing the adoption.

Story
Toby is fully committed to taking life at an easy pace. And he’s hoping you are too. Almost 6 years old and just 8 pounds, this Maltese/Terrier mix has things pretty well figured out. He likes calm, low-key days, and loves to be close to his person. He’s the kind of dog who would happily skip the long walks and head straight for a comfy spot next to you. And let’s not forget his soft white coat and those big, soulful eyes that have a way of quietly stealing your heart without even trying. 🤍 Toby is house trained, knows “come” and “sit,” and doesn’t need a crate – he’s perfectly content just being part of your daily routine. He sleeps in bed with his person, rides well in the car, and is about as low-maintenance as they come. He enjoys a good stuffy toy now and then, but he’s not here to redecorate your house or demand constant entertainment. He gets along well with other dogs, is good with cats, and does great with kids – but his ideal home is a quieter one where he can truly settle in and relax. Think: less hustle and bustle, more slow mornings and cozy nights. Toby isn’t looking for an active lifestyle. He’s looking for someone who appreciates a gentle, loving dog who just wants to be near his person. A secure, fenced yard will be important for him, but beyond that, it’s pretty easy to make this guy happy. If you’ve been hoping for a sweet, mellow dog who’s past the puppy phase and ready to just pal around with you, Toby might be exactly who you’ve been waiting for. Toby is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and current on heartworm/flea/tick preventatives. His adoption fee is $225. Apply to meet him at PawsitiveTailsKC.org. Meet-and-greets will be scheduled with approved adopters.
