Meet Beaker, the embodiment of joy and affection in doggo form. This goofy dude is sure to put a smile on your face! Beaker's love for people knows no bounds! He is the ultimate social butterfly, eager to make friends wherever he goes. He has not been dog-tested yet, so we aren't sure how he would react to other dogs in the household.

Story
Dexter here, just hanging out, looking for my new home. My friends say I should tell you about my pretty, very intense eyes, but I want to point out that I work very hard at doing the best picture poses of any dog you'll ever meet. You should take me home so I can be *your* muse! You might also be happy to know that I'm not one of those dogs in need of a bunch of exercise. Okay, Foster Mom said I'm "relatively lazy," and if that means I don't have to go on marathons, yay for me. A daily walk is just fine. I do like benebones and am also a fan of stuffies. See my cool blue stuffie in the picture? I'll bet Foster Mom will let me bring it to my new home! I'm a smart, smart pooch and since I'm treat motivated, training is a breeze. I weigh in at about 70 sturdy pounds, but I'm definitely a trim 70 -- I try to be in tip top shape! I'm a bit shy when I first meet people, but if you're nice to me and maybe give me some treats (subtle, right?), I'll love you BIG time! (In case you haven't gotten my hints, the way to my heart is definitely through my stomach. And my stomach likes treats.) I really am the sweetest boy. In fact, despite my size, I strongly believe that your lap is my lap and will happily join you for a big slobbery kiss. Since I'm a pretty chill guy, a low-activity, adult-only home (or one with older kids) would be best for me. And one without cats, please. I just don't understand those creatures. They are so weird! I have done well with some other dogs. We'd just need to interview each other before we become roomies. Would you like to get together to make sure I'm your forever pup? Then go ahead and call/text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387 and ask about me, Dexter! My foster home is in the Kansas City metro, but my friends will transport me to my forever home! What a deal!

Story
Billy is the world's sweetest and smartest boy! It's true! Despite this, this 7 year old pittie has been looking for his furever home for 2 years now. He's done extensive training with his foster mom, and knows sit, lay, stay, give, paw, turn, leave it, crawl, heel, and loads of hand signals! Billy is kennel trained and house broken. So if you're looking for already trained and ready to go, then Billy is your boy! Billy would do best in a calmer home with a doggie friend; he is great with other dogs! This big boy is a bit shy at first, but once he warms up, he loves you BIG and wants to be your best buddy. Billy's adoption fee is $175 and he has been neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and is on flea/tick & heartworm prevention. If you'd like to meet Billy, click on the 'Apply to Adopt' tab below!

Story
Gracie is just a really lovely dog who was adopted from us as a puppy. She's had an amazing life so far but her mama was diagnosed with a terminal illness and is no longer able to care for Gracie. We have committed to finding her another loving home so her mama can rest easy, knowing Gracie is well cared for. She is adaptable and playful, and she loves a good nap on the couch or her bed. She enjoys hanging around her people and lounging on couches, and if you want to go outside, she's game for that too! She'd love a fenced yard where she can run around and be free. All that being said, her favorite thing, no matter where she is, is staring adoringly at her people and giving kisses. Gracie is 2 years old now and is a staffie mix. She is everything you are looking for in a dog: leash-trained, kennel-trained, potty-trained, and good with people, dogs, cats, and kids. What more could you ask for?! She is currently working on not jumping on people & giving them hugs upon arrival...I mean, I love doggy hugs myself, but we know not everyone does so we're working on it! Gracie's adoption fee is $175 and includes spay, microchip, vaccinations, and flea/tick & heartworm preventatives. Meet and Greets can be scheduled with Approved Adopters so get your app in today!

Story
Lucy, you've got some splaining to do! (She's a dog, she can't splain it all herself, so we'll help her out) Lucy loves going places and meeting people. She takes one sniff, and then she knows you, and you're already friends. She's really sociable about town. Lucy is a 3-year-old Staffordshire Terrier mix, and she would sure like for someone to pamper her and love her. She is about 60 pounds of beauty, just the right size to pal around with. Her foster has worked with her on training, manners and socialization. She is the kind of girl who likes to play, who is good at bath time and who even knows when she might be doing something a little ornery, and will redirect easily from that. She is full of loving kindness and wants to be your best girl. She should be in a home with kids over 12, and she should be the only dog in the home. Her style of play with other dogs, which can involve nipping, doesn't always go over so well, it turns out. She comes when she is called, and she knows boundaries at home - and of course she does great on those outings where she can make new people friends. She can be a great buddy and company at home, for someone who wants four-legged love. If you want someone to share your days and evenings with, and who would happily be on the receiving end of all of your spoiling, she's your girl. She's house trained and crate trained. Lucy is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. She is on heartworm prevention and flea/tick preventative. Her adoption fee is $175. To meet her, apply at PawsitiveTailsKC.org!

Story
Bitty Boop has some big updates! When Bitty first arrived to her foster home, she was so very shy. Since then, her foster momma has showered her with lots of love and loads of patience and it's paying off! Bitty is now coming out of her shell and blossoming. This sweet petite girl is finally getting used to loving attention from humans!! That's yuuuuge! She is still 'new-things-nervous' but that's to be expected...just don't go rearranging all the furniture without telling little miss Bitty! Bitty Boop is also silly and sassy, and, boy, does she loooooove playing with her four legged foster siblings! Well, dog siblings. There's a cat in her foster home and she's a bit curious about him but they do seem to coexist just fine. And toys! Boop does love chewing on her toys so be sure to have plenty of those on hand so she can entertain herself while you're busy. Sounds fair. Boop is also house broken and kennel trained! Winning! As far as car rides go, she'd rather walk...but not on a leash, those pesky things. Lol. But she's young and leash training is a pretty simple task, we think. Speaking of young, we think Boop is just about a year old and she weighs about 45 pounds, a perfect schmedium dog size, don't you think? Bitty's adoption fee is $175 and includes spay, microchip, vaccinations, and flea/tick & heartworm preventatives. Meet and Greets can be scheduled with Approved Adopters so get your app in today!

Story
Today's Pupcast addresses the question... What qualities should you look for in a new furry family member? YOSHI will be leading us today. Welcome Yoshi. We are so happy to have you join us. Welcome everyone, my name is Yoshi. I am here to talk a little about what you should look for in a new furry family member. First, a little background on myself. I am a 5-month-old Shepherd/Pittie mix. When I am full grown, I will weigh approximately 60lbs. I was asked to address today's topic since I personally check all the boxes of what to look for in a wonderful furry family member! So, let us jump right in. I believe at the top of the list should be a doggo that is a great listener. They need to not only be a great listener but also knows to follow directions. For example, when they are asked to sit...they sit, when they are asked to come, they come...when they are asked to get down.... yep, they get down, (Check, check, check). You should also look for a friend that knows where to do their business (Check). Another good quality to look for is a furry friend that knows when it is bedtime to go in their crate and go to sleep, no fussing (Check). Then when looking for that special companion you should start ensuring they would enjoy the activities you enjoy. For instance, swimming, car rides, walking on a leash, and most importantly, snuggle time (Check, check, check and CHECK!). You also want them to be well socialized. What does that mean exactly, you ask? That means they should be comfortable around other furry friends, family, and visitors (Check!). One last piece of advice. When looking for a new furry family member ensure you can love them forever. They will absolutely love YOU forever. (Big Check). Thank you, Yoshi and thank you for joining us today. I will say, Yoshi, you have given us a lot to think about but I must point out...you DO check all the boxes! Folks, if you would like an opportunity to meet our special guest, please fill out an application with PawsitiveTailsKC.org. Yohi's adoption fee is $175. He is neutered, microchipped, current on age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives.

Saying Goodbye to Summer is Ruff! Hey there, paw-some friends! It's your favorite Bulldog here, Baby Ruth, and I've got some bittersweet news to share. As the sun sets on summer, I can't help but feel a bit "wuff" about it. The long lazy days of lounging under the warm sun, chasing after ice cream trucks, and splashing in the pool have come to an end. But guess what's just around the corner? Back to school season! Now, don't get me wrong, I love seeing all my human buddies excited about their new adventures and learning new tricks. But can we talk about the struggle of leaving the cozy comfort of my bed in the morning? It's like pulling teeth! I mean, who wants to give up their sunny snooze sessions for early alarms and school buses honking outside? Not this Bulldog, that's for sure! But you know what they say, life's a leash, and we've got to embrace the changes. So, here's to new beginnings and making the most of the "wagnificent" moments this school season brings! To all my fellow furriends, may your school days be filled with excitement, laughter, and lots of belly rubs! And to my four-legged pals, don't worry, we'll still find time for epic after-school snuggles! Let's make this back-to-school season paws-itively amazing!
