Story
ZZ is a 4 1/2 year old female doberman. She is spayed. She has lived with us her entire life along with her 2 siblings. Sadley due to moving we can't keep them. She likes to hang out outside and watch the world. She does like to bark at whatever moves to let it know she it there watching. She is happy to be in the same room with you and likes ear rubs and butt scratches. She could stand to loose a few pounds so might need some more exercise or a reduced calorie food. She does not like ball caps that extend over someones face, nor masks of anykind. She does well with kids that are 13 and up but shouldn't be around little kids without supervision because she doesn't like it when they run up and get in her face or startle her. Her favorite thing to do is wrestle with her brothers. She is current on all her shots and has never missed her monthly heartworm flea and tick. She needs a safe home with a fenced yard. If you love her and take care of her she will return it to you and love you.

Story
Kleo is a 5yo Female great Dane! She is blue and sweet as can be to humans, does okay with cats and kids. She loves to snuggle and is so soft and pretty! She is happiest snuggled up on the couch or in bed with people! Kleo is however, extremely reactive to other dogs. She would do best in a home with a fenced in back yard (6ft or taller) with no other pets. She does do okay with cats but will bark at them occasionally. She has been around little kids and while she would never hurt one on purpose, she may accident knock a kid over. Overall she is a sweet girl and deserves a loving family.

Story
Tyson has been a family pet since 8 weeks old. I adopted Tyson from my son who has multiple dogs. Tyson wasn’t raised with children. Tyson is house trained, and enjoys going on walks. Tyson participated in professional obedience training at “Who’s Walking Who? KC Dog Training for 6-8 weeks. Tyson is selective of his fur friends and needs a smart owner who can help set him up for success. Tyson is just big baby who loves to snuggle and go for walks! He is nothing but PURE love, kisses and cuddles. Tyson lives inside the home (he is not an outside dog). Looking for an owner that can be at-tentative and loving, I currently work long hours and unable to spend the time with Tyson he deserves. It’s very important that he is rehoused with someone who is willing to provide a loving home for Tyson. Tyson is a great companion! Thank you for your interest and consideration.

Shelby

German Shepherd Dog

Female, Adult
Olathe, KS
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Shelby is a 5 year old purebred Shepherd. We rescued her from a backyard breeder, and she has some anxiety issues. She is not aggressive but is anxious, and needs an adopter who understands how to handle this. We have two small kids whom she’s great with, but do not have the time we once did to help her navigate her anxieties. Shelby is beautiful, smart, and very sweet and loyal to those she loves. She would do well in a house with space to roam and someone who is very active. She does well with other dogs when properly introduced, but struggles when meeting new people. But with care and proper training, she is an excellent dog. We recommend someone who is knowledgeable with the quirks of shepherds.

Ares

Great Pyrenees

Story
Meet Ares, a 2.5 year old lovable, cuddle-craving couch potato ready to find his forever home! Currently, Ares has been living happily with his humans and two feline friends. He is a champion when it comes to meeting new people, but sometimes needs a reminder that some people like their space. Ares thrives on attention and would make the perfect companion for someone who enjoys relaxed evenings on the couch, with him nestled beside you. While he is gentle and affectionate with people, he would be happiest as the only dog in the home. A yard would be a dream come true for him, where he could chase his favorite tennis balls and Kong toys to his heart’s content. When it comes to walks, Ares has good leash manners when he is out solo, though he can be reactive when other dogs pass by and will try to chase small critters. Though he gets along with our cats, he guards resources and would be best alone. With his heart full of love, Ares is just looking for a chance to be your new companion!

Story
Boo is a sweet , loving dog. She likes to snuggle on your lap. She is on once a week medication to correct occasional nighttime bladder leakage. Boo does tend to get nervous easily. I have a younger daughter who plays with her, and sometimes this makes Boo nervous. She did nip at my daughter several weeks ago, so we decided it would be best for Boo to go to a home that is a little more calm and quiet than ours. (We have 3 very active kids.) Boo is fully potty trained, and crate trained.
