Story
We show our dogs by appointment only. If you are interested in adopting Quill, please first fill out our online adoption application at kcpaws.org. Quill's adoption fee will be $175. PLEASE READ BIOGRAPHY BEFORE APPLYING Meet Quill, he is a 4-6 year old Husky/Akita Mix who came to us after spending most of his life on a chain. He has loved getting to live life to the fullest since coming to our rescue and enjoys his daily walks and runs and playing fetch in the yard with staff. Quill has warmed up well to the staff here at KC PAWS and has particularly bonded with the manager there, it is clear that once he is bonded and trust someone he is a friendly and affectionate dog. However due to his past he sometimes is weary of strangers approaching him. He is not the type of dog that would like being in large crowds or having strangers come up to pet him during walks. He will also need his potential adopter to be willing to do multiple visits with him before adoption. Quill has met a few female dogs that he has gotten along well with, however he does not like to interact with other male dogs especially if they are his size or larger. He would do best with a female dog around his size. He does need a home with no small dogs, or cats. He would not be an appropriate fit for a home with children as he does not like for people to be in his face leaning over him and children on his level would be frightening for him. Quill is a very active, high energy dog and LOVES to run. He would be an excellent match for someone looking for a running, hiking, adventure buddy. Quill is kennel trained and keeps his run at the shelter clean. He also loves to go for car rides. Quill needs an experienced dog owner who will be willing to really work on training and socializing. He is not an appropriate fit for a first time dog owner or someone who has no previous training experience.

Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Gator was surrendered due to change in the family circumstances. He is such a well behaved and friendly guy. He loves humans! He isn't sure around toddlers so kiddos over 5 please! He has done well with the dogs in his foster home. He is potty and kennel trained although the kennel isn't required after settling in. He grew up on a farm and protected the yard from squirrels and raccoons, so we are also looking for a home with no small animals! If you think Gator could be a good fit, please fill out an application at www.k911foundation.com/adopt. September 2, 2025, 10:33 am

Story
Zena is a 40 lb husky mix. We think shes about 5 or 6 now. She's gorgeous and SO sweet once you are in her circle. She had a bit of trauma when her owner was arrested and she found herself and her dog roommate at the local pound. The shelter staff adopted her "sister" but she still needed saving. She is so incredibly loyal and funny. She just wants to stay home, in her yard or neighborhood, with her person. She loves leash walks and car rides. She loves to play fetch with her foster mom and is so cute to watch her play with her stuffed/squeaky toys. Zena is a big fan of naps and the comforts of being in her bubble!    Apply to meet Zena at www.k911foundation.com/adoptDecember 23, 2025, 8:25 am
