Story
Meet Mia – A Resilient, Playful, and Loving Companion! Mia is a 2-year-old, 30-pound sweetheart who’s come a long way since she was found on the streets of Kansas City, Kansas. With lots of love, patience, and professional training, she’s blossomed into a confident, affectionate pup who’s ready for her forever home. These days, Mia loves being a ride-along buddy—she enjoys running errands, exploring home improvement stores, and meeting new people (especially those with treats!). She’s gentle when taking snacks from both her foster and friendly strangers, and her social confidence continues to grow every day. Mia is leash-trained and has been working with professional trainers for the past six months to build her confidence and reduce her fear-based reactions. She’s made amazing progress and knows several commands, including sit, wait, with me, come, kennel, and is currently learning leave it. She’s crate-trained and happily settles in with a peanut butter Kong. At home, Mia is a great balance of playful and calm. She loves romping in the yard, playing chase or wrestling with her foster sister, and showing off her epic zoomies before curling up in a cozy spot for a nap. Because of her background, Mia can be protective of her resources around other dogs, but she’s making steady progress. She would thrive either as an only dog or with a larger, calm, and playful canine companion. She’s not a fit for homes with cats or young children. Mia can jump a short fence, so she’ll need a home with a tall, secure privacy fence or an adopter committed to leash-walking her for potty breaks. Mia has a big heart and is ready to share it with the right person or family. If you're looking for a loyal, smart, and affectionate dog who’s already put in the work to become her best self—Mia might just be the one! If you are interested in meeting Mia, please fill out an application via our website at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/TRP/Dog and we will get back to you via email once your application has been reviewed. If you have further questions please feel free to reach out to us at adoptionstrp@gmail.com. Mia's adoption fee is $100 and includes age-appropriate vaccines, spay, microchip, deworm, heartworm testing.

My Friends at Wayside say: - My previous owner said that I am house-trained.- I will do well in a variety of homes!- I have history of living with another dog successfully- I prefer calm dogs that will co-exist with me.- I am eligible for a Slumber Pawty, a 7-10 day in-home trial period. Please visit our website for additional information. My home needs are: -Wayside recommends bringing your children 9 years old and younger out to meet me before adoption to make sure they enjoy my enthusiasm for life!-Cats are much too interesting to me, so my home will need to be cat free.Hi there, I’m Jack! I’m an 8-year-old gentleman with a heart full of love and a gentle soul. I may be past my puppy days, but I still have plenty of affection (and kisses!) to give. I’m a big fan of cuddling, spending time near my favorite people, and enjoying all the simple comforts of life. If you’re looking for a loyal lap dog who’s happiest by your side, I might just be the perfect match. I’m housetrained, know commands like ‘sit’ and ‘shake’, and I’m always ready to show off my good manners for a tasty treat. I’ve lived with other dogs before, and while I prefer to just peacefully coexist rather than play, I do just fine sharing space with them. I’ll need a home without cats, but otherwise, I’m a pretty easygoing guy who would fit in well with a variety of families.These days, I enjoy taking things at a slower pace; a nice, leisurely walk and some snuggle time on the couch sound like the perfect day to me. I’m a gentle, affectionate boy looking for a calm, loving home where I can be your steady companion and best friend. If you’ve got a cozy spot on the couch and a few treats to share, I think we’ll get along just fine! Meet me soon at Wayside Waifs!Love, Jack

I’m currently part of LIFT University, which is a training program that’s helping me build confidence, learn new things, and become the best version of myself.I’m a total lovebug once I feel safe. My people say I’m one of the sweetest, most affectionate guys around, and I’m always happy to soak up belly rubs, head scratches, or just hang out close by. I also have a goofy, fun side… when the mood hits, don’t be surprised if I break into some super adorable zoomies! Some of my favorite things in the world? Playing with other dogs, cuddling up with my favorite humans, and kicking back with a good chew bone. I find a lot of comfort in having another dog around, so I must meet other dogs before going home, just to make sure we can be buddies. However, I’m alright being your one and only pup too! More love for me! I do need a fenced yard to safel

Scroll through my pictures to see it.Hey there, I’m Murphy!If you’re looking for a fun-loving, high-energy pup to keep up with your active lifestyle, I might just be your perfect match! I’m a 1-year, 11-month-old pit bull mix with a zest for life and a love for adventure.
