Story

Loki is a 4 year old loving and playful boy with lots of energy. We got him from a rescue in the Kansas City area that has since closed. He plays well with the other dog in the house but gets a little jealous when it time for love. He is house broke and crate trained. Knows a few basic commands. He always wants to go with and did frequently with dad until he got sick and couldn't go anymore. He would love some running room or an active person to play with. He is good with teenagers but has never been around small children. He runs well with someone on a bicycle, used to do the Katie Trail with my grand daughter but she can't do that anymore. He needs a loving home with no other pets and someone to love him and play with him.

Johnny

Toy Fox Terrier

Male, Adult

Columbia, MO

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Story

Johnny is a fox terrier who thinks he is a parrot. He loves to jump on top of your shoulders and sit down, remaining perfectly balanced regardless of whether you're sitting down or walking around. Johnny's favorite game is fetch, although he is really not a fan of give. We are working on the 2nd part. He is still marking around the home, but that will hopefully be nipped in the bud when his buds are nipped. He was found running around Stephen's Lake Park with Chang, and while they're both very close and would ideally be adopted together, they are not bonded. Johnny is looking for a permanent pair of shoulders to perch on.
