Story
Meet Birdie: Sweet, Sassy, and a Little Bit Spicy Birdie is a 9-ish-year-old distinguished lady with a soft heart and a surprisingly loud opinion about fences. She’s the kind of dog who will snuggle on the couch, melt into your side, and make you feel like the most loved human on Earth — just don’t ask her to make friends through a chain-link. That’s not her love language. This gal is the perfect blend of sugar and spice. She’s loyal, protective, and affectionate, the kind of dog who’d absolutely alert you to a squirrel-sized intruder — but also wait by the window until you get home like you’re her entire world (because you will be). Birdie’s ideal life includes cozy indoor living, soft beds, kind humans, and zero drama at the fence line. She’s waiting for her person… maybe it's you? Complete an application to learn more.

Story
Terry is a dog who is still learning how to be a dog. This a medium-large young male mixed breed was first discovered running as a stray several months ago, and it took some kind strangers around a month to convince him and his friend Reba to accept their help. It's easy to read Terry's body language and pick up on at least part of his story. He walks tentatively, body crouched low, ready to spring away from any potential danger. He doesn't pull when walking on a leash because he is too scared to move fast. He paces and pants when spending time as office dog. He's interested in pro-offered treats, but he's too nervous to take them from your hand. What is most likely is that when it was most important (as a puppy), he was not around humans, or at least kind humans. However, there's lots of hope for this handsome speckled guy. He's very receptive to human interaction, and there's not a mean bone in his body. He leans into your legs when you stand near him. He's more than happy to join you on the couch, curled up tight. He even shows signs of being really interested in stuffed toys (crinkly ones are his favorite). All this guy needs is a patient and understanding home who understands a couple of things. First, the dog you first meet is not going to be the same as the dog who will eventually emerge after decompressing. Second, progress takes time and is not linear. We don't know if Terry has ever lived inside, if he's ever been around children, and how he will behave in a home environment. We need that kind and loving person to take the leap of faith with Terry in tow. Terry is very responsive to reassurance, and he's most confident when he's allowed to go at his own pace. After he's decided you're a safe person, you earn the reward of seeing more of his personality. He tends towards being clingy, checking in frequently to see if you still approve. He's at his happiest when he's on a long line sniffy walk. Overall, he's a doll who we see thriving in a home dedicated to building his confidence. If you feel called to come meet this special boy, please email adopt.ffaa@gmail.com or call the shelter at (417) 592-2512 to arrange a meet and greet.

He’s a sweetheart but we can’t take care of his needs when we have a newborn child. He’s chipped, neutered, all shots are up to date, and he understands some commands like sit. Loving, caring, and curious personality. Loves to snuggle or to run around and play.
