Story
Boba was just a puppy when my mother brought her home. She grew up with us but was ultimately neglected with the family that was suppose to take care of her. My mother no longer cared for her once Boba grew too big, and she found out the price tag of keeping a dog. She threw the responsibility to her children, who had no means of actually taking care of a dog without support from their parents. No one else in the family wants her, and none of us are available to actually train or care for her the way she needs. To be transparent, our financial troubles and schedule has left her untrained, lacking in social skills and lacking of medical records. All of which was through our incapability and overestimation that we would be good owners for her. But she deserves the world. In her I see so much life and love for a family that has failed her, so I hope that she can find a better home someplace else, where she can be safe, happy and well loved.

Story
There is absolutely NO COST to adopt Kobe.. We just want him to go to a good home. Ideally, this would be a home with another dog so they can be buddies, but that's not required. You can reach me at 816-213-8532 for any questions. I adopted Kobe from the city pound. Currently about 6 to 7 months old, and currently about 40 lbs. One of my three children has very unexpectedly developed quite an allergy to him. The rest of us are just fine but he can no longer come in the home but for very short times because of her allergy. He Loves people and does fine with children when they are with him indoors or outdoors. However he is very rambunctious at this stage, lol! I would love to find him a home that has another dog around his size! That would be the perfect scenario for him. He loves the dogs next door and has been over to play with them. He's very, very social and I think he needs a dog mate to hang out and play with!! You can reach me directly at 816-213-8532 (Rusty)
