Story
Approx. DOB: 3/24/24                Approx. Weight: 45 Lb Adoption Fee: $250 includes a 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness!   New Pictures Coming  Winnie is so gorgeous with her orangeish color fur. It's so thick and in great shape. Winnie is young and full of life. She loves to chase the other dogs in the group to play tag or just to see who the fastest runner is. We haven't witnessed any dominance or aggressiveness towards any of the other dogs. She can sometimes think she is a smaller dog but doesn't realize she is playing a bit too rough. It's on accident and it happens when she thinks patting them on the back is OK but she accidently rolls them over. The dogs haven't been hurt because it's a gentle roll over.  A quick correction and she listens so well.     She listens really well but being young you need to be firm in your voice. Winnie would be thrilled to go to obedience classes. We are still learning more about her everyday and from what we have learned so far she is going to make a terrific companion for some lucky family.      I have been spayed, vaccinated, heartworm tested negative and microchipped.  If you are interested in adopting me, please complete the adoption application located at www.furrykidsrefuge.org/adoptadog and a dedicated volunteer will get back to you as soon as possible.   Furry Kids' Refuge is in need of good quality dog and puppy food with meat as the first ingredient.  You can drop off donations at our weekly adoption events at the Lee's Summit Petco (1860 NW Chipman Road, Lee's Summit, MO), Saturdays only from 11am to 2:00 p.m.  Donations are tax deductible as allowed by law.  Would you like to foster a Furry Kid? Furry Kids' Refuge will supply the food & vet care while you supply the basic house rules & love.......win-win for all!!  Just visit our website http://www.furrykidsrefuge.org/category/fostering/  for more information. Thanks for your support!

Hiro, is an 8 year old male australian shepherd. I rescued him 3 years ago in the mountains of Utah. Tracked down his owner and decided to keep him. He loves to play fetch non stop. He thinks he is a lap dog when being petted. He is good with kids. They like to carry the ball or toy around and have Hiro follow them. We are only rehoming him because he has become to dominate over our Black Lab. He will make a good one dog family or if you able to train him with other dogs.

Story
Please read bio before applying! Meet Merlin. This young man has had a rough go of it at just 1 year old. Merlin came to us as a commercial breeder release and when we got him at 6 months old, he had never been handled by humans. As a result, he is very distrusting of humans and requires a lot of patience and time to adjust to new people. Merlin is very dog friendly and because he is more comfortable with dogs than humans, we are requiring that he go to a home with at least one other canine. This will help set him up for success. He will also need a home with a secure fenced in yard, as he can be a bit of a flight risk, and he will need a home with no small children. Merlin has the potential to be an amazing companion, he just needs someone who will give him the time he needs to adjust

Story
1 year old Watson is a friendly Miniature Australian Shepherd who can’t wait to be in a loving and active home. He is great with dogs and can play all day long! If you have a pup that needs a bestie, especially if it’s another Aussie or a bigger dog, Beaumont may be the one! He is crate trained, house trained and after going for a nice walk and playing all day, he turns into a huge snuggle bug!

These pups are in Lees Summit, Missouri too!

Border Collie Australian Cattle Dog

Story
DOB:  12/7/19                         Approx Weight: 38 Lbs, Adoption Fee: $200 includes 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness. Cody is a Border Collie/Australian Cattle dog mix and is almost five years old. A very loyal dog, he is also very smart, and he wants to please his people (he does have a goofy side too). He went through D.O.G. Obedience training in September, and knows sit, down, come, stay, place, and spin. He is housebroken, and also crate trained but is very good when left alone having the run of the house. Being a Border Collie mix, he is also very active and needs an owner to work/play with him often. He loves walks and gets along well with other dogs. However, he is anxious around new people and because of his anxiety, he tends to nip at new people. We had a behaviorist/trainer work with him a few months ago and she indicated that he is not aggressive and is adoptable. This is her recommendation: Cody - Nice dog! a little anxious but a super smart dog that wants to please, needs a strong confident home and handler that gives him clear and consistent direction. Having a consistent routine and a lot of constructive exercise will help with the built up energy that creates anxiety.  Reading his body language and understanding what you are seeing is extremely important, stay calm, don’t yell,  step in and redirect when you see ears forward, eyes making a hard stare and stiff body posture. Give a small verbal correction and move him to break the eye contact. Don’t let him give a hard stare! Ask people not to make direct eye contact, don’t move in on him fast, allow him to go to the people and the people not come at him directly and come over the top of him to pet, they can step to his side, allow him to sniff and get attention if he wants - respect the dog Work on teaching the “Look” command - make sure he is making contact with you when you mark and reward the behavior- if you need to lure him into looking at you, take the treat from his nose to yours- make a straight line - stand normal when doing this do not bend down to his level.  Keep working on fun productive training sessions through the day to work him mentally Management of his behavior is a must, keep him on his leash whenever new people are around. I feel an activity where he can use mental and physical energy would be a great idea. He’s a very smart dog! He will need an experienced home that understands body language, is active and has the time and commitment level to put into his behavior for sure (emphasis added).  His foster has been working on his anxiety and he’s met new people. After offering him a treat, they were able to pet him and he calmed down. One person even sat on the ground with him after petting him for several minutes and he loved it. I found this in an article about Border Collies: Border Collies are often praised for their intelligence and work ethic but are also incredibly sensitive to their surroundings and human emotions. These dogs form strong bonds with their owners and quickly pick up on emotional cues, making them responsive and intuitive companions. Border Collies can become stressed in chaotic environments, so they thrive in homes where they can enjoy structured activities and mental stimulation. He should have a fenced in backyard because he really likes to explore and run round. He would be a wonderful addition to a home where he can thrive and be active. Please, no homes with small children . Cody was adopted as a puppy from Furry Kids' Refuge and was returned for npping a family member. Due to the family having active children and a busy household he was returned. Cody has been neutered, microchipped, and heartworm tested negative and vaccinated. If you are interested in meeting/adopting one of them just fill out a application at www.furrykidsrefuge.org, click on the 'Adopt A Dog' icon and a dedicated volunteer will be in touch.  Furry Kids' Refuge is in need of good quality dog and puppy food with meat as the first ingredient.  You can drop off donations at our weekly adoption events at the Lee's Summit Petco (1860 NW Chipman Road, Lee's Summit, MO), Saturdays only from 11am to 2:00 p.m.  Donations are tax deductible as allowed by law.  Would you like to foster a Furry Kid? Furry Kids' Refuge will supply the food & vet care while you supply the basic house rules & love.......win-win for all!!  Just visit our website http://www.furrykidsrefuge.org/category/fostering/  for more information. Thanks for your support!

Cannoli is the biggest baby who loves nothing more than cuddles and belly rubs. He's full of energy and would do best in a place where he has room to run. He does have some anxiety but most of that is due to the lack of space.
