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.

Story

Meet Gunner—a handsome American Pit Bull Terrier with a sleek grey and white coat and a heart full of love. Gunner may have started life as a stray, but now he’s ready for the cozy life with a forever family who will adore him as much as he adores them. He’s a true companion dog who wants to be by your side, whether that’s cruising in the car, lounging on the couch, or just hanging out in the backyard. Gunner is smart, loyal, and eager to please. He’s fully potty trained, kennel trained, and knows commands like *sit, *stay, *come, and is working on *down. He’s easygoing on a leash—except when another dog is around (he’s still practicing his social manners)—but he’s overall a great walking buddy. He enjoys playtime with chew toys, cozy naps, and giving affectionate kisses to his favorite people. Gunner is looking for a calm, adult-only home where he can be the center of your world. He’d do best as your only pet—no cats or other dogs, please. If you’re searching for a silly, snuggly, and deeply devoted best friend, Gunner just might be your perfect match.

Details

Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Looking for a happy-go-lucky, playful pup with a heart of gold? Meet Mala, a spirited American Pit Bull Terrier who lives life to the fullest and loves hard. Whether she’s zooming around the yard with her best friend Bob or curled up for a cozy nap, Mala brings joy and energy to every moment. Mala is incredibly smart and eager to learn—she already knows the basics and is more than ready to level up her skills (she even helped teach Bob how to sit when foster mom was struggling!). Give her a little time and some treats, and she’ll master any trick you throw her way. She adores people and greets everyone with full-body tail wags and enthusiastic affection—sometimes a bit too enthusiastically, but she just wants you to know how much she loves you! With a little continued training, she’ll be a perfect mix of manners and exuberance. Mala coexists with the cats in her foster home, though she prefers when they give her space and don’t run (who can resist a good chase?). She has a dominant personality with other dogs, so she’d likely do best as an only dog or with a calm, submissive canine companion who enjoys active play. She’s the perfect mix of adventure and chill—Mala loves car rides, walks, and even runs if that’s your thing. But after the fun? She’s all about snuggles on the couch and a good nap. Play hard, relax often is her motto. If you’re looking for a smart, athletic, loving dog who will make you laugh, keep you active, and snuggle you silly—Mala just might be the one for you. Mala is eligible for our Foster-to-Adopt program, which means you can take some time to get to know her in your home before finalizing the adoption.

Story

🎩 Meet Sinatra — “Sinny” to His Friends A 6-year-old old soul with the gentlest heart you’ll ever meet. Please give him a chance, he’s got a patient heart and is just waiting for a family to love him. Just hours before he would have been forced onto the streets due to his owner’s sudden housing crisis, Melissa’s Second Chances stepped in — because one look at Sinny, and you know he deserves better. This boy is precious beyond words. Soft, polite, and deeply loving, Sinatra carries himself with that smooth-jazz-listener energy… calm, soulful, and quietly charming. Though life has thrown him some scary changes, he’s handling it with grace and sweetness. Give him a little time to warm up, and you’ll discover a companion who wants nothing more than connection, safety, and a human to call his own. Sinatra walks well on a leash and may even find some grass to roll in along the way, surely giving you plenty of smiles and joy. 🐱 Sinatra was cat tested and was not reactive. We believe he may be able to coexist with proper introduction. 🐶 Sinny has plenty of experience with other dogs and is said to be a chameleon. Matching the energy of the other dog- playful if the dog is playful, and chill if the dog is chill. Making him perfect for a multi-pet household. We are actually convinced Sinatra may be pure perfection wrapped in the gentlest package. We would love for you to meet him! ----------------------------------------- If you’re interested in adopting, please apply online at mscrescue.org/adopt.

Lady

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 8 yrs 10 mos

Size

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

Details

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Lady, the sweet, gentle soul who's looking for a forever home where she can enjoy her golden years in peace and comfort. This laid-back lady is the perfect companion for someone who loves a quiet, cozy environment and is ready to share their space with a loving dog who appreciates the simpler things in life-like belly rubs, lounging on the couch, and the occasional squirrel chase! Though Lady has recently experienced a loss of vision in her right eye, she hasn't let it slow her down one bit. She has recently seen a specialist that is treating her with some ointments, but is 100% sure she will not gain any vision in this eye. It might eventually need removed if she starts to be in pain. In fact, she still has a keen eye for those pesky squirrels she loves to chase! She's also adjusting beautifully to her new reality and is learning to navigate the world with grace. Her joyful, affectionate nature shines through every day, especially when she greets you with tail wags, butt wiggles, and a few sweet kisses. Lady thrives in a calm, low-energy environment where she can take her time to warm up to new faces-both human and canine. Once she trusts you, you'll see her true, loving personality emerge. She gets along well with other dogs, especially when introductions are slow and respectful, but she prefers a quieter, slower pace of life-no high-energy households for this girl. This gentle girl is house-trained, enjoys her daily walks (she's become quite the leash-walking pro!), and is content to lounge on the couch until you return home, ready to greet you with all the affection in her heart. Lady would do best in a home without young children, or with older, respectful children who will give her the space she needs to feel comfortable and secure. If you're looking for a loyal, loving companion who will stick by your side through thick and thin, and who will make your house feel like home with her quiet presence and loving heart, Lady is the one for you. She's ready to live out her days in a place filled with peace, comfort, and unconditional love-could that be with you? Lady's adoption fee is $0 with an approved application thank you to a sponsor. This includes her vaccinations, heartworm test, microchip, eye appts. and spay surgery. To meet Lady fill out our adoption application at lucky13rescue.org.
