Lucy was dumped in a ditch. I couldn’t leave her there so I took her got her all her vet needs taken care of. Unfortunately I can’t keep her though. She is good with other dogs and small children. She is amazing dog that needs love and attention. She does not like car rides. I believe it’s anxiety from being dumped in a ditch. Please someone give Lucy a forever home! I am not sure what breed she is.

Luigi's a gorgeous and active boy who can fetch, play tug of war, sit, listen and come when called. He's the perfect ougoing companion for an active family. Luigi's very loyal and will show you love and affection with daily cuddles. He's also AMAZING with kids 5 and up and he's great with other dogs and cats in the house. A house with a fenced backyard will be perfect for him to run around and get his exercise when not able to go for walks around the neighborhood.

Swifty

Female, 4 yrs

Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Hi, I'm Swifty! I am a four year old bully type terrier mix. I'm not really into treats or toys, but I enjoy sniffing and exploring. I'm down to just coexist but don't expect me to give you much attention right away. I am dog selective, and while we can do meet and greets with household dogs, I would thrive best in a single dog home. I will receive pets, give kisses, and am cooperative with handling. Obedience training would benefit me.

Warrensburg, MO
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Hi, I'm Mister Trooper! I am a young adult bully mix, but I am pretty atypical in that I am the most chill dog you will ever meet. My energy levels are low to moderate, I like to meander and take my time getting where I'm going when I am on a leash, but I do like to romp around a yard in good weather. I am an air conditioned dog designed to be handsome and hold your couch down. I might possibly have some special needs, but shelter staff are still investigating with the medical team. Don't leave this handsome face hanging, I'm longing for a big bed and family to call my own.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Hi, I'm Thanos! I am a large young adult terrier mix. I am a huge goofball who loves to romp around, play with toys and tug. I'm a higher energy dog and need an outlet for exercise and silliness. Shelter staff have started teaching me some manners, but I will require continued training. I am available to meet other dogs, but I'm not sure how I feel about cats yet. If you can provide the structure and physical activity I need, you will find a best friend in me.
