Story
Meet Artemis (aka Boo) Mixed-breed pup Artemis is about 1 year old. BOO! Sweet girl Artie (aka Boo) came into the facility rather timid/fearful and not seeming to have had much experience on a leash, but she has a good attitude, loves the attention she is getting from volunteers and is learning quickly. AWW! Came into the shelter with buddy Sully (Charlie), an adoptable miniature Aussie. The two show no food aggression, often taking one treat with both mouths at the same time. They don't show a great deal of bonding to each other, though, so we are planning to adopt them out separately. LOVES KIDDOS! Came from a home with children and let them hang all over her. LOTS of LOVE! Getting some TLC and routine vet care and will be available for adoption soon. MEET/ADOPT! Call 913-684-4939 to schedule an appointment. Visit at 510 Organ Ave. 11-4 MWF. E-mail fortleavenworthstrayfacility@gmail.com for an adoption application. HEINZ 57??? We don't know what breeds of dog Artie is -- whippet is listed just because she is about that size (about 30-40 pounds) and when she bounds across the play yard, she reminds us of a greyhound. This pretty girl could be a mix of lab, pointer, terrier, all of the above, who knows...

These pups are in Kansas City, Missouri too!

Story
"I may be a senior pup, but I like to think of myself as a senior in high school—60 pounds, so handsome and young-looking! I have the softest brown eyes and best ears, especially when I’m trying to figure out a new sound. After 10 years, I’m just learning how to be a dog, but I think I’ve got the hang of it now! Toys and bones have become some of my favorite things along with lots of love. I know how to play fetch with my plush toys…but I’m only good for about 10min (true greyhound fashion!) I nap most of the day but if you say “Walk!”, I’m your guy and get so excited to go exploring! I don’t mind 1-2 miles, piece of cake. Speaking of treats, yes please!! I’m extra gentle when you give me one. Since I came to KC REGAP, I’ve learned that humans are actually really nice and now I love to meet new people; I get so excited!    I'm a special needs guy looking for experienced dog owners who will pick up on my verbal and visual cues. Lucky for me being in a foster home since coming to KC REGAP, I’ve learned my human’s verbal cues as well. I am not sure about other dogs along the sidewalk, and I definitely don’t do well with small dogs or cats. My foster mom says I would do best with a privacy fence and as an only dog! In the backyard, you won’t find me doing zoomies just yet; I haven’t quite figured that out. However, I have discovered my voice and love to let you hear it when I get excited or am ready to play!   My ideal household would be one with older human siblings (teenage+) or adults. Patience is key with me as I learn to trust you; but I will lean in real hard (almost knocking you over) as I show you lots of love and attention!" We adopt within 1 1/2 hours of Kansas City.  Please feel free to complete your application on our website KCREGAP.orgFebruary 18, 2025, 8:22 pm
