Story
A Master of the Leash: Walking Romeo is an absolute dream. No tug-of-war here; he understands the assignment and maintains excellent manners, making your daily strolls the highlight of the day rather than a workout for your arms.The Ultimate Adventure Partner: Do you like road trips? So does Romeo. He is a stellar car rider, settling in comfortably and enjoying the view. Whether it’s a quick trip to the coffee shop or a cross-country trek, he’s just happy to be included in the journey.He’s Got a Voice (And He’s Not Afraid to Use It): Romeo is a vocal boy. He doesn’t just bark at shadows; he `talks` to you. Whether he’s telling you about his day, reminding you it’s dinner time, or giving you a happy `woo-woo` when you walk through the door, you’ll never feel lonely with his expressive personality around.

Aurora

Australian Shepherd

Female, Adult
Independence, MO
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
I got her from a friend who needed to find a home for her due to a divorce. I was suppose to be a short term option but that fell through. Aurora is a good dog, loves the outside, people, treats and especially belly rubs. She takes sometime to get use to new people but she becomes very protective once she knows you. Aurora needs more than what I can currently give her. I work long days and overtime, and I have to kennel her during this time. She can get anxious by herself and chew when she's alone for extended periods of time. She comes with a large kennel, dog bed, leash and collar, and outside cable leash with stake. Looking for a loving home. She has been around my sisters golden doodle and she really enjoyed the company of another dog and I haven't had her around small children, though I believe she has a very kind temperament and would do great.

Bailey

Australian Shepherd Mutt

Female, Adult
Gladstone, MO
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
We acquired Bailey in 2019 through a friend who could not take care of her. I am unclear on her exact age but I was told when we got her that she was 1.5 so she would be about 8.5 years old now. I think she would thrive best in a home where she is the only pet. I would recommend no kids too. She needs someone who is able to care for her special diet and get her groomed regularly. This new home must also be patient as she takes awhile to warm up to others. I would describe Bailey as sweet and loving with a side of spice. She craves attention and comfort but she can be aggressive at times. She is little but she is loud!

Kansas City, MO
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Mila is a toy Aussie. She’s a well trained doggy. She rings a bell to be let outside to potty. She loves going on walks. She loves to play fetch. She knows how to sit , lay down and stay. She knows how to bring over the remote control lol. We do love her very much but we have a baby now and have been unable to take care of Mila. Sadly, we never have time for her anymore. We like to say she’s a “human doggy” not a “dog doggy” as in she prefers the company of people rather than other dogs. We’d love for her to find a new loving home. She’s honestly a really good doggy and would make an amazing bestie for anyone who decides to be her new home.
