Story
Max is an adorable and sweet 8-year-old Maltese. He weighs 9 lbs. Max is a happy boy and loves everyone and is friendly to both people and dogs. Max is an excellent walker and gets very excited whenever he sees his harness and leash. Max is marked “special needs” because he is prone to drinking and urinating frequently (a nervous habit) and his water intake will have to be monitored. He is crated during the night and holds his pee during that time. He will have to be let outside often and watched to ensure he pees outside and does not mark inside. For more information on adopting, email us at LLDogRescue@yahoo.com Thank you to those who share and donate, so LL Dog Rescue can save more dogs.

Story
Meet Hufflepuff! If entertainment is what you want, Huffy is your girl. This adorable girl dances and signs for her meals. What's better than that? Hufflepuff is a sweet gal who would love to have a pack of her own and a home to call her furever home. She is a bit of the nervous type. But once she gets to know you, she's all love and cuddles. She loves scratches on her chin and belly. She gives gentle boops to your leg or hand when she's excited. She has learned to play with the foster's dogs who have helped her learned this is a great foster home! Adopt Huffy and add some love to your life now!

These pups are in Lees Summit, Missouri too!

Story
Approx. DOB: 5/8/17                Approx. Weight: 12 Lbs Adoption Fee: $250 includes a 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness! Hi my name is Josephine and I'm looking for my forever family! I'm a 7 year old Bichon and was surrendered by a breeder. My surgery to get spayed and my dental went great, I didn't loose any teeth! I'm learning to do all the normal things dogs do. My foster parents are working with me on potty training, taking me out to potty every 3 to 4 hours. I'm just now starting to take treats from them and wag my tail when they talk to me. I have been spayed, vaccinated, heartworm tested negative and microchipped.  If you are interested in adopting me, please complete the adoption application located at www.furrykidsrefuge.org/adoptadog and a dedicated volunteer will get back to you as soon as possible.   Furry Kids' Refuge is in need of good quality dog and puppy food with meat as the first ingredient.  You can drop off donations at our weekly adoption events at the Lee's Summit Petco (1860 NW Chipman Road, Lee's Summit, MO), Saturdays only from 11am to 2:00 p.m.  Donations are tax deductible as allowed by law.  Would you like to foster a Furry Kid? Furry Kids' Refuge will supply the food & vet care while you supply the basic house rules & love.......win-win for all!!  Just visit our website http://www.furrykidsrefuge.org/category/fostering/  for more information. Thanks for your support!

Story
Approx. DOB: 8/21/17                Approx. Weight: 11 Lbs Adoption Fee: $250 includes a 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness! Katherine (although we have been calling her Sweet Pea) is an incredibly sweet Bichon Frise. She loves to hang around her humans (adults and children). At first she will be nervous around other dogs, especially big ones, but we’re confident she will quickly learn to be comfortable with them. She has definitely grown to love the big dog in her house (Eddie) and now even cuddles with him/walks on top of him to get to other parts of the couch. She was spayed on October 2nd, 2024, and on the same day had a lot of her teeth taken out. But, for some reason she has been preferring to eat her foster brother’s large breed hard food instead of her soft canned food (although she still eats some soft food too.) Potty training has been going slowly. She gets taken out every few hours and knows to pee on the grass, but she also likes to go on hardwood floors. So she is close to being potty trained but still needs reinforcement. She loves to sunbathe and explore the outdoors. She is now learning to handle the leash and is progressing quickly. She likes to stop and sniff a lot but handles gentle redirection well. Overall she is a very very (very) sweet girl. She still carries trauma from her past, but once she gets comfortable, she really comes out of her shell. She loves to be on the bed or couch and hang out with her humans. We also think it would best for her if there was at least one other dog in the house, she might be weary of them at first like she was with Eddie, but we think she is significantly happier with another dog to keep her company. We think she will thrive in any household that gives her a lot of attention, especially cuddles. She truly has been the sweetest pea and we hope she finds a home as great as she is I have been spayed, vaccinated, heartworm tested negative and microchipped.  If you are interested in adopting me, please complete the adoption application located at www.furrykidsrefuge.org/adoptadog and a dedicated volunteer will get back to you as soon as possible.   Furry Kids' Refuge is in need of good quality dog and puppy food with meat as the first ingredient.  You can drop off donations at our weekly adoption events at the Lee's Summit Petco (1860 NW Chipman Road, Lee's Summit, MO), Saturdays only from 11am to 2:00 p.m.  Donations are tax deductible as allowed by law.  Would you like to foster a Furry Kid? Furry Kids' Refuge will supply the food & vet care while you supply the basic house rules & love.......win-win for all!!  Just visit our website http://www.furrykidsrefuge.org/category/fostering/  for more information. Thanks for your support!
