Story
Georgie, aka George Harrison is doing great! Little man thoroughly enjoyed himself in the snow storm! He hates vacuums but loves cuddling w my pup KK and staying warm next to her! He enjoys stealing carrots and PB filled kong toys. He has such a big personality for such a tiny sweet boy !This is George Harrison!!! He’s been in a foster for about a month now. He is still so incredibly shy, but his personality is slowly coming out! His favorite time of the day is feeding time, where he gives me quite a few spins out of excitement. But he also enjoys our trips outside where he can sniff out everything in the neighborhood. He needs a home with a really patient and loving owner. He takes a while to come out of his shell, but when he does he is full of life. I hope this little buddy can find a homeGeorge Harrison came with the other three members of his group from a stay in the puppy prison in Kansas City, Hey, hey, hey.We don't know why he was there but it had been too many hard days night and their time was up.

Whoever adopts this sweet soul is going to be so blessed!Dear Santa - Spotz here. I've been the bestest boy; I'm a good listener. I love to sleep in; love on my foster parents, and play with my foster sister and brother. All I want for Christmas is my furever family. This sweet boy is still available. He has so much love to give. He is so well behaved; he's going to be a great companion. He'll be the perfect pup for any family looking for a low maintenance pup. Fully house trained. He may be 10 years old, but this boy has so much life in him. Gets super excited for treats and will sit for you!Apply online or email russellrescuetn@gmail.com to make his Christmas wish come true!Hi all - Spotz checking in! This boy has been doing amazing. He is a lover. Will make the perfect companion for anyone. He gets along well with other dogs - except puppies, too much energy for him. Does well with kids too. He loves to be around you, will sit patiently. He loves to chew his bones and enjoys a good chew toy too! When its time for bed, he will happily go to his crate and sleep through the night.Hi all - time to talk about this amazing pup; this is Spotz. He has three big spots on his back . Spotz brings the best of both worlds, he can be the best couch potato and so mellow, and he can be active when you need him to. Loves his walks, he does great. Enjoys playing with my other dogs but is happy to just chill on his own. He enjoys looking out the window and does well in the crate. Enjoys a good chew toy. He will come and let you love on him but doesn't feel like he needs to be on your lap all the time. Consider yourself lucky if he kisses you (), he reserves that for special people. My kids have gotten kisses, I'm still waiting for mine. He is house trained and knows his basic commands.

Story
Sweet and handsome little 3-legged Amos. When he first came to us his leg was severely injured, and in need of amputation. His elbow was shattered by a cruel human  who shot him and he was allowed to suffer for weeks. This made it impossible to save his leg. Poor guy has already adjusted to walking on three legs and does not limit his walking abilities. He is doing well and enjoys playing with his foster siblings. Amos loves to sleep on the couch with the other dogs, and is adjusting to a leash. Loves,  loves and loves food, treats, and toys. Would do great in a home with other dogs. Still a little timid around people, but never growls, bites, or snips. He just needs to feel safe and learn that he can trust people which is to be expected after all he's been through. His current foster Mom states she is able to pick him up and let him be a lap baby. Amos is crate trained, eats in his crate and when he is told to get in the bed, he will get in his crate.  He's around 6 years old and 20 pounds! He will make a great addition to any family!! Amos will require a fenced yard!Available dogs are met by pre-approved adopters ONLY after a match is made. The application is the first step.
