Story

We show our dogs by appointment only, if you are interested in adopting please fill out our online application at kcpaws.org. Adoption fee for this dog is $300Ginger Snaps is a 6 year old Silky Terrier. She came to us from a commercial breeder situation. Breeder releases are often frightened of new things and need some time to fully trust people since they have lived a life in a cage or pen without a lot of interaction or human contactLuckily, we were able to get them released and into a foster home to show them plenty of TLC and allow them to begin to learn to be pampered family members.Ginger Snaps is very sweet but is still a little shy with new people. She is much more confident and comfortable when she has another dog to buddy up with.We will require Ginger Snaps be adopted into a home with another dog.Ginger Snaps will need a home in which her new owners understand that she has been through a lot and will take time to come out of her shell and learn new routines and become comfortable in a new environment. She will also need continued work on potty training.Silky Terriers need frequent grooming and daily brushingApril 12, 2024, 2:37 pm

Story

10/24/23.Jack has little vision perception now. He's not able to keep his crate dry overnight. He may not be with us much longer. Jack came to us after being placed unsuccessfully in two homes in less than a week. We were told he's a Yorkie, but he looks more like a Silkie to us. His original family had surrendered him to a shelter, probably because they did not want to deal with a dog getting older and blind. When Jack first came, we believe he was able to see shapes, but now he acts more like his vision is totally gone. He's learned "the lay of the land" and can walk thru the house, down the hall and out to the yard, and how to find his crate a bed time. He does not like large dark dogs, and can also find the frail dogs that he wants to dominate. He walks well on a leash but here does his business in our fenced yard. If Jack is in a home with other dogs, he will need a human that can help him be nice around the other dogs and not let him be a bully. He's really a sweet boy, but he's probably taken this attitude as he lost his sight. At Christmas, he loved attention from our 3 granddaughters ages 9-11. If you feel you are the right home for Jack, please complete our application found at www.bongosbuddiesrescue.com for more information and to set up a time to come meet Jack.
