Story
Meet Carlsbad — Your Spirited, Snuggly Sidekick! 🐾 Carlsbad is a young Red Heeler/Pit Bull mix bursting with adorable puppy energy and big charm. He’s curious, playful, cuddly, and always ready to be part of whatever his people are doing. This friendly guy gets along great with dogs, cats, and children. In classic heeler fashion, he may try to herd his friends, but he’s learning quickly and his puppy manners are coming along beautifully. He’s outgrown his mouthy puppy phase and is turning into a polite, eager-to-please companion. Carlsbad already has some impressive “big dog” skills, too — he has free roam of his foster home and reliably uses the doggie door. He absolutely loves having the freedom to pop outside for a sniff, adventure, or zoomie session, so a fenced yard would make him very happy. When he’s not exploring, Carlsbad is a total cuddler who enjoys curling up with his humans and soaking up affection. He’d thrive with a family who enjoys an active, smart, affectionate pup and is ready to keep up with his fun-loving heeler spirit. If you’re looking for a playful adventure buddy who also gives A+ snuggles, Carlsbad is your guy. 💛 ----------------------------------------- If you’re interested in adopting, please apply online at mscrescue.org/adopt.

🌄 Meet Denali — The Sweet, Playful Explorer Waiting for Her Forever Home! Denali is a 6-month-old cutie from the “National Parks” litter — a group of puppies rescued from very poor outdoor living conditions. While seven of her littermates have already been adopted, Denali and her two siblings are still waiting…watching other puppies leave for their new lives while they grow older in care. 💔 But Denali isn’t letting that dim her spirit. She is bright, friendly, curious, and so ready for a family of her own. 🐶 About Denali Denali is a beautiful mystery mix of Australian Cattle Dog (Red Heeler) and Pit Bull Terrier, and she has the best traits of both breeds — smart, people-oriented, affectionate, and eager to please. ✨ Her Personality: • Super friendly — loves meeting new people • Playful and curious — everything is exciting and worth exploring • Confident with big dogs • Great with kids — limited exposure, but she loved the children she met • Social & outgoing — she wants to be part of everything happening around her At ~30 lbs, she’s a perfect medium-sized companion and still has some growing to do. 🏞 Why Denali Is Special Despite her rough beginnings, Denali’s heart is wide open. She has excellent behavior for a young pup and is well on her way to becoming a loyal, loving companion for life. She’s eager to learn, eager to bond, and eager to be someone’s adventure buddy. 💛 Denali Would Love: ✔ A home with time for training, play, and affection ✔ A dog friend to romp around with (optional, but she’d love it!) ✔ Kids or active adults to share fun and companionship ✔ Someone who wants a social, happy, people-loving dog 🌟 She’s growing up waiting — but she shouldn’t have to. Denali is ready to be chosen. Ready to be loved. Ready to start her life with a family who sees the sweet, playful, confident girl she already is. If you’re looking for a joyful pup who will bring endless smiles, Denali might just be your perfect match. 💕🐾 ----------------------------------------- If you’re interested in adopting, please apply online at mscrescue.org/adopt.

Story
Luna is a 5-year-old low-rider girl who epitomizes why it’s great to adopt an adult dog. She has lots of training and listens well to her people, so you she can jump right into your new life together and focus on the fun stuff! She is an Australian Cattle Dog/Corgi mix who weighs around 35 lbs. and is smart as can be. Her flex is that she knows all of these commands and more: sit, stay, come, lay down, up, off/down, shake, focus, fetch, leave it, eat and kennel. She’s also great on a leash, easy company for any length of walks you’d like to take – she’s happy whether it’s a short neighborhood stroll or a longer trail walk or hike. Luna’s absolute favorite activity is playing fetch. No matter what kind of toy you’re throwing, she’s pumped to go get it and bring it back, as many times as you want. Playing with her is the way to her heart; her playmates are her best people. Her special trick, which will melt your heart, is that Luna gives hugs. Had a rough day or need a little lift? Kneel down, pat your chest, and say “hug,” and Luna will put her paws on your shoulders and nuzzle her head under your neck while you give her a gentle squeeze. Ahhh, all better now. Luna is house-trained and crate-trained, and she sleeps with her people at night – either in their bed or on a blanket on the floor in their room. She can get stressed around young children, so she should live with kids over age 12 or so. New people can take a little time for her to adapt to, and she might be protective at first, but with time, she’ll be your loyal buddy. Playing with her is the easiest way to make her feel comfortable. Luna is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped and current on preventatives for heartworm/flea/tick. Her adoption fee is $175. Meet & greets will be scheduled with approved adopters from PawsitiveTailsKC.org. 🖤🤎❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤍💜💙💚💛🧡❤️🤎🖤 APPLY @ PawsitiveTailsKC.org 🖤🤎❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤍💜💙💚💛🧡❤️🤎🖤

Story
Herbert is a quirky, smart dog with a big personality and an even bigger heart. He’s incredibly loyal, loves to snuggle, enjoys car rides and walks, and knows sit, crate, leave it, come, and place. He’s fearless, funny, and guaranteed to keep you smiling. Herbert is truly a one-person dog who wants his own human to bond with. He thrives as the only pet, where he doesn’t have to share attention and can be someone’s full-time best friend and co-pilot. He loves structure, routine, and being part of whatever you’re doing. He’s bright, eager to learn, and occasionally shows classic heeler-style nips when excited, but with boundaries and consistency he settles in well. We’re rehoming him because the fit with our pets isn’t right. Herbert is ready for a home where he can be the center of someone’s world — and he’ll give you unmatched loyalty in return.

Story
Being homeless and at a shelter isnt fun - can be downright scary. I was at a small&#44 rural town shelter which doesnt get much traffic. I was then fortunate to go to Great Plains to a much bigger town. Ohhhhhh&#44 Im hoping that it will help me find my own family and home.<br/><br/>The staff/volunteers are super nice and Im slowly feeling more confident with everything being new to me. I enjoy playing with stuffy toys and know the command&#44 sit. I walk nicely and do like back rubs (who doesnt?). You need to see me with other dogs. I am not bashful at all with other dogs. We speak the same language. Dogs give me confidence in myself and WOW playing in playgroups with different dogs is heaven for me. <br/><br/>Do you have a dog that would enjoy having a brother? Id be happy to have a sister or brother or both. Bring your dog(s) and lets meet. Im a good boy and look forward to meeting you. <br/><br/>All my love&#44<br/>Bowie

Story
Meet Ziggy! This boy is a super speedy ball of energy and FUN! You absolutely can never get bored with him around. It's difficult to tell in a photo, but he is a super fun sized guy weighing in at only 38 lbs.! He's the perfect fit if you're looking for someone who can kick it with the big dogs, and has a big personality, but in a compact size! Ziggy is about 5 years old, he loves to play with his friends and definitely keeps us all laughing with his goofy, zoomie personality. Ziggy craves social interaction, from humans and other dogs. His previous owner left him alone on a tie out often, which caused him to have some separation anxiety. Having other dogs to play with has definitely helped him in this area, but he will still need a home where he will not be alone long hours of the day everyday. He would also do best in a home with a canine companion to play with. Ziggy will need an active family, he is a fun loving, high energy dog. He would not be an appropriate fit for someone who does not have the time to give him a lot of daily exercise and activity. Ziggy loves kids, but he is pretty hyper and needs to work on manners, so he may be to much for small toddlers and babies. However, older kids would be okay. Ziggy needs at least a 6 foot fence for any home with a yard, he can jump a four foot fence. Ziggy would be best in a home without cats or really tiny dogs as he wants to chase and play and is just a little to much for them. He is crate trained and should transition into housetraining quickly. If you have another dog, we will want to introduce them to ensure that they get along well.

These pups are in Lenexa, Kansas too!

Story
Meet PeBo – A Gentle Senior Aussie Mix 💙 PeBo is a sweet 11-year-old Australian Shepherd mix with a big heart and a lifetime of love to give. Recently surrendered through no fault of his own, this senior boy is hoping to find a warm foster or forever home where he can spend his golden years surrounded by comfort and care. PeBo is housetrained, well-mannered, and enjoys the company of people. He would do best in a home with adults only and a calm environment. When treated with courtesy and patience, PeBo is affectionate, easygoing, and happy to be by your side. He loves exploring a yard, enjoys outdoor time, and walks nicely on leash with a little guidance. He has always done well with other dogs, especially with polite introductions, and he has proven how amicably he can coexist with kitties, too! PeBo doesn’t need a crate and does well when left alone. He’s calm, loyal, and thrives in a peaceful home where he can be part of daily life without too much fuss. Seniors like him deserve comfort, love, and family — and he’ll give it back tenfold. If you can offer a gentle, respectful home where PeBo’s needs as an older dog are honored, he’ll reward you with endless devotion. Could you be the one to give PeBo his second chance? P.S. PeBo is eligible for our Foster-to-Adopt program, which means you can take some time to get to know him in your home before finalizing the adoption. It’s a great way to ensure the perfect fit! ----------------------------------------- If you’re interested in adopting, please apply online at mscrescue.org/adopt.
