Story
Hi, my name is Nia. I'm very smart and could sit, stay, and stand! I'm fully housebroken too! However, I am very territorial with my people. Anyone in the home is fine but if someone comes to visit I'm not happy and need to be isolated. I'm good with dogs but would do best in a home without cats, as I kind of like to chase things. At this point in my life I have lots of energy so a running partner would be great! Once exercised, I can "couch-potato" with the best of them!

Story
Hello all! This is Astrid and she is a wonderful little Blue Heeler looking for a loving active home! She's a complete goober and at the same time a little genius! She loves people, making new friends, and loves other dogs. An active home with people that have the time and energy to give is what she needs. She is playful and very very energetic! She does get along with cats, but they don't necessarily want to play with her all the time :) Dogs on the other hand have found the best playmate with Astrid, I bet they'll run out of energy before her! She loves to do anything honestly, although she has had a hard time learning tug of war :) She absolutely loves to play ball, she can run for hours & hours chasing it back and forth! She won't run outside by herself and really prefers to be with people/other dogs.

Story
Dandy is looking for the perfect home! He is a very fun, sweet dog. He would love someone that wanted to take him places and go on hikes or be active in other ways. He is incredibly smart and would excel with some training and be great at something like agility. He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccines and has heartworm prevention for the coming year, as well as 3 months flea and tick prevention. He is almost 4 years old and weighs about 40lbs. He is crate trained and will come with a nice large crate and all his supplies including food. He used to go everywhere with his previous owner and he does ride in the car and walk on a leash very well. His owner before me passed away and I’ve attempted to integrate him with my other dogs, but he and my much larger dogs play too hard outside and it's difficult for me to control. He would do best in a home with dogs more his size and energy level and no cats or very small children.

Story
Renegade came to us in 2015 as a 4-6 month old pup. She was on the urgent list at the Kansas City shelter: "***Rescue Only - Pup was brought to the shelter by animal control. It appears that she has had no previous human socialization and is very defensive when staff attempts to interact with her." Most ferals you work with will shut down, and curl up, and not really think about biting the thing scaring them. Renegade was different (hence her name). She will defend herself and will try to scare strangers away before they ever get near her. She eventually bonded to us and we could handle her and pet her and she'd curl up in a ball and allow the touching without defending herself. She'd wag her tail for us, and get excited to see us but then if you reached for her she'd run to her safe spot (an open wire crate) and curl up. With time, patience, and consistency she will now just cower down for petting, not run away. She WANTS the petting. She's so happy with us, dances around wagging her tail, gives us little kisses, loves treats, but when you reach for her she'll cower down and wait for the petting. The feral dog in her. With strangers, she acts like she's a guard dog and tries to scare them away...but with treats, time, and love she'll warm up to you. Renegade loves it here, she's safe here, but if a skilled, special person was interested in her...she is available for adoption. In the wrong home Renegade would bite someone. So we will be thorough in our screening of potential homes. Because of her trust/fear issues the potential adopter would need to come to our property to meet her 2-3 times a week for 3-6 weeks in a row to build a bond with her. Socially Imperfect...but still worth it. Renegade is a happy dog, who loves life, loves to play with other dogs, and deserves to live. She's a perfect example of why we do what we do. Just because she's not a 'normal' dog doesn't mean she doesn't deserve to live. Check out this video of her playing: https://www.facebook.com/AutumnAcres/posts/3285192524848339 Renegade doesn't have a sponsor. Want to help provide toys, treats, and routine medical care for her? Become her sponsor! $50 a month is all we need to help provide for her.
