Story
Meet Pepper — The Prettiest Little Bulldog You’ll Ever Meet Pepper is a 2.5-year-old, under-40-lb bulldog with the most stunning merle pattern and the gentlest soul. She was found as a stray with a small chin wound, but it’s healing beautifully — and honestly, it doesn’t steal an ounce of her charm. Pepper is pretty much perfect. She’s a chill, low-energy girl who’s happy to spend her days snoozing, snuggling, and following you from room to room. But don’t be fooled — she does enjoy her walks and loves getting out to explore at her own pace. She’s totally crate trained and settles right in when you leave. She’s had a couple of accidents when home alone, but her foster has a doggie door she hasn’t fully mastered yet… or maybe Pepper just thinks cold weather is for staying cozy inside. When her people are home, she goes out on her own and has zero accidents. Pepper’s favorite place in the world? Curled up next to you on the couch, soaking up all the cuddles and watching TV like the world’s cutest little roommate. She’s also a total gem with other animals — great with her foster’s small dog, big dog, and two cats. Easygoing, affectionate, and wonderfully sweet, Pepper is the kind of dog who just fits right into your life. If you’re looking for a snuggly, soft-eyed companion with a heart of gold, Pepper is your girl. ❤️🐾 ----------------------------------------- If you’re interested in adopting, please apply online at mscrescue.org/adopt.

Story
I sure wish I had some great story to tell you about my past life. You know&#44 a story where Im the hero&#44 and I rescued my family from a burning building; or&#44 I pulled the sled team alongside Balto&#44 and we raced across the Alaskan tundra getting life saving medicine to sick children. Alas&#44 I cant tell you those stories because I think I just made them up.<br/><br/>No&#44 I was actually adopted from Great Plains four years ago&#44 and once I went home&#44 well&#44 I lost touch with my friends here. Fast forward to today&#44 and I came into the shelter again because my family moved away and deserted me at our house. I know for a fact it wasnt me or anything I said or did. I think they just didnt want the responsibility of a dog any longer so they abandoned me. Im over it&#44 and I hold no grudges against humans because of them. I know that I need to open my heart to a new family&#44 trust them&#44 and that maybe this time - THIS TIME - they will love me and care for me until the end of my days. I want to be a member of a family and do my part to care and support and love all of those in it.<br/><br/>I lucked out and have had the privilege of living in a foster home with a wonderful couple. They are so good to me&#44 and in return&#44 I have been nothing but a very good dog. I stick to my Foster Mom (FM) like a little bit of velcro. We have kissing sessions in the morning&#44 belly rubs mid-morning&#44 and a wonderful walk around the neighborhood whenever we want. My Foster Dad missed having a dog in the house&#44 so they decided that fostering would be the way to go. He and FM say that&#44 and I quote&#44 Kermit is the best foster dog we have ever had. I am perfect in the home&#44 I am as sweet and loving as they come&#44 and I even get to sleep in bed with them sometimes. They have a four-foot fence&#44 and I dont try to jump it or anything. What kind of dumbo would you have to be to jump a fence and leave this home and family? I love them with all my heart.<br/><br/>Im a calmer guy now than when I was at the shelter previously&#44 more relaxed and mellow than before. Ive maybe gotten over some of my fears&#44 and Ive learned that love is the most important thing in life. Love and smelling the roses on a daily basis. Oh and eating bonbons with someone you love on the couch watching a rom-com. I prefer affection and attention from my human(s) above all else. I want a home where I can hang my hat&#44 climb into my bed&#44 and drift off to sleep knowing that I have a safe and loving haven in which to live. Yes&#44 Ive reached my senior years. And they are years to be enjoyed and savored - like a good book or fine wine. Honestly&#44 I liken myself to a vintage bottle of Chateau Lafite-Rothschild. We both have a smooth&#44 velvety texture&#44 we age gracefully over time&#44 even improving as the years go by. Could you ask for anything more in a dog?<br/><br/>I hope that you are my person. I hope that you are reading about me and want to meet me. I so want my chance at a happily ever after.<br/><br/>Love from Kermit (aka Kirby)<br/><br/>Featuring photos by Krystle-Lee Photography

Story
Meet Bougie – A Gentle Soul Looking for Her Safe Haven Age: 3 years | Spayed | Up to date on all vet care | Microchipped Adoption Fee: $200 Bougie is a sweet, timid pup who’s slowly learning to trust the world again. At just 3 years old, she has already overcome so much after being rescued from a severe hoarding situation where she never received the care or socialization she needed. Because of her past, Bougie is very shy and cautious—but in the right environment, her gentle spirit begins to emerge. Bougie is fully vetted, spayed, and microchipped—ready for her second chance. She is looking for a calm, adult-only home with a securely fenced-in yard and no children. Due to her fearful nature, a home with experience handling shy or undersocialized dogs is a must. Another calm, confident dog in the home could help guide her and make her feel more secure. Bougie won’t be the kind of dog who runs to greet you on day one—but with time, patience, and love, she will blossom into a loyal and deeply grateful companion. If you believe in second chances and have the experience and heart to help a fearful dog thrive, Bougie might just be waiting for you.

Story
Just in time for the holiday baking season, we`d like to offer up Cinnamon. And while the spice is typically warm and bold, our Cinnamon is the shy and reserved variety. This scared boy lost a loving home due to housing issues and is scared and confused at the shelter. He`s trying hard to be brave and the volunteers and staff do all they can to help him feel secure, but what he really needs is a home with a family again. There is such joy in helping a dog learn that there are lots of caring people in the world. Cinnamon is reported to have been housetrained in his prior home and he has lived with older children. Like all our dogs, he would love to meet any potential doggy siblings before going home, and our shelter staff will help with introductions to ensure that everyone gets along.Cinnamon is vaccinated, neutered and microchipped.

Story
Georgie, our friend from @Valentine's Second Chance Animal Rescue, adores being with people. It doesn't matter what you're doing-- reading a book, working, going for a walk, puttering in the yard--being with you will bring Georgie joy. How wonderful is it that just spending time with you can make this lovely, precious boy so darned happy? You see, Georgie came from a shelter in Kansas where too many dogs don't make it out alive. But Georgie was lucky and he seems genuinely grateful to be here, with people who want to be with him. Now we're on a mission to find the people who will give Georgie the gift of companionship, of love, of a HOME. That's where you come in! We need you to share Georgie's story and help him find a home for the holidays. Please share to help this guy find a home! Georgie is about three years old and weighs 65 pounds. He is an excellent snuggle buddy who will take every opportunity to sneak in a kiss when you're least expecting it. He is getting better about walking on leash but can still get distracted at times (no doubt stopping to smell the roses), and likes going for rides in the car. Georgie likes most other dogs, too! He would love a home with adults only or older kids because little kids are scary for Georgie, and we want Georgie to feel safe. Want to bring this big baby home with you? Call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387. Georgie is in the Kansas City metro, but transport is available to the right home. #thepetconnection #adoptdontshop #georgie #dogkisses #AdoptGeorgie #KansasCityDogs #DogAdoption #RescueDog #PetRescue #DogsofInstagram #GeorgiesJourney

Story
Introducing Foster Topsy, a heartwarming 10.5-year-old bulldog who's an absolute snuggle bug! Topsy's journey brought her to KCEBR, where she arrived as a neglected sweetheart. She had struggled with bad skin, minimal fur, goopy eyes, and the weight of fear. Despite her challenges, she radiates resilience and love. Topsy's vision may be impaired, but her ability to love knows no bounds. Although she might not always locate your exact position, her keen sense of hearing lets her tune into your presence. Navigating her surroundings, both indoors and within her enclosed yard, is a breeze for this spirited bulldog. And you won't believe it, but Topsy has taken to galloping down the hall! When it comes to her preferences, Topsy has a penchant for vegetables - a healthy choice that shows her unique taste. But that's not all. She adores nothing more than catching up on her beauty sleep and soothing herself by sucking on fuzzy blankets. Living harmoniously with a pack of two Bulldogs and two Labradors, Topsy fits right in. Her life has transformed under the caring wings of KCEBR, and the future holds nothing but pure, unconditional love for this special soul. Thank you, KCEBR, for ensuring that the rest of Topsy's days are brimming with warmth and affection.
