Story
Meet Gracie: Pet of the Week! Take a look at this sweet girl! Gracie is about 1-2 years old. She has so much love to give and is looking for a forever home, or a foster in the meantime. She's got it all! Good with kids, kennel trained, housebroken, and just amazing to all of the volunteers up here! She has a couple of quirks, which all pets do. She likes to flip her bowl so that she can eat her food on the floor. We're working on trying to get her to try new methods of eating breakfast and dinner, such as puzzle feeders, and various food dispensing toys, but she's not quite interested in those yet. NO CATS! She cannot be around cats, smaller animals, or chickens. Her prey drive kicks in pretty hard. But with her breeds, or what we think her breeds are, it can be expected. Her original paperwork has her listed as a Belgium Malinois/Coonhound mix. She has the facial structure of the Malinois and the energy, but the goofy personality of a coonhound and the coloring. We'd prefer to have someone with knowledge of the Malinois breed so that she doesn't end up coming back up here for her nature, but we are also willing to meet with those who are willing to agree to train her further and maintain that. She already knows some basic commands and uses them consistently. Oh, and she loves playing fetch with a ball. Former owner says if you throw it once, be prepared to continue throwing it for a good bit! We see more playful than spastic out of her, so we think she'd be a great fit for a family willing to put in the time with her! She is a bit intense and will need regular exercise and perhaps a “job” – she would excel no doubt at agility, etc. Call 913-684-4939. Visit at 510 Organ Ave. 11-4 MWF. Email fortleavenworthstrayfacility@gmail.com for an adoption application. Featured as the Pet of the Week in the Nov. 7, 2024, issue of the Fort Leavenworth Lamp.

Story
Hey, Chief here! So I've had it a little bit rough before I got here to HOPE. I was adopted from the local animal control by a lady who loved me but didn't quite get my best interests. She kept me inside at all times, even to use the bathroom on puppy pads. As most people know, Husky's need a whole lot of exercise and enrichment! Because I wasn't getting this, I ended up chewing up the furniture and lots of other things around the house. She did not like this, so here I am at HOPE. Everyone is hoping to get me an adopter experienced with husky's or at least someone who understands my needs and will make sure I can get the life I need so I don't resort to chewing things up when I get bored. I sure don't do that here at the shelter.

Story
I am so special I got to have all of this beautiful black fur. I have been special from the start, and I love to tell you about it. I am a total woman's guy, what can I say I love the attention. Loving me will take a special person for sure. You see I can be a total dude! (Sorry in advance ladies!) When it comes to a towel, well I’ve never met one I don’t love. You will know this because I would love to have one in my mouth all the time. If given the opportunity I will hang on to your jacket sleeve, or hoody strings. Hey, I just like keeping you close, honest! I am honestly a lot, but I promise I am truly worth the headaches, and OMG moments that are sure to come. If anything, I will always keep you entertained.

Petey came to us in July of 2022. He is a very playful and happy dog. He loves people of all ages and sizes. Petey has never met a stranger he didn't like. He is quite the alpha male though, so he needs to be the only 4 pawed guy in your yard.

Story
If you like the sweet, strong, silent type then I am your guy.I love to cuddle up and spend time with the people I love. The fastest way to my heart is a tennis ball. My love for a tennis ball is above and beyond. I want a tennis ball in bed, on my walks, even in my food bowl. Hey we all have that one thing. Those beautiful yellow tennis balls are mine. Loving my humans comes like second nature to me. I am loyal, and oh so endearing. Not to brag, but my hugs well they are total magic. So if you want someone who can play with you, and love you with all the magic in a little pibble heart. I am 100% your guy, so come fall in love with the sweetest guy around.
