Story

DOB: 12/24/19 Weight: 75 Lbs Adoption Fee: $175 includes 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness. Indy is 75 pounds of cuteness and cuddles. He loves cuddling next you on a couch or bed. He does good on walks especially when walking trails away from cars and other dogs. Not a fan of loud noises like fireworks or close thunder/lightning. CBD oil and thunder jackets help but only when he is leaning against you. Has not been around any cats or small children. He does good with teenagers and adults, but it takes time to feel safe around them. Ice cubes are his favorite, and he knows the sound of the ice machine. Knows when it is bedtime and just heads to sleep in his bed with his blanket. Likes to be tucked in his blanket at night. He knows the basic commands and knows to sit to wait for his food dish to be put down. Only toy he hasn’t destroyed in a few minutes is a size 5 soccer ball (slightly deflated). He does love to play fetch with a tennis ball and chase after the soccer ball. Plays great with puppies and is gentle with them. Food can never be around because he resource guards his food from other dogs, so we feel he should be an only dog in his family because of this. He takes treats very gently. Indy has been neutered, wormed, microchipped, and heartworm tested and vaccinated. If you are interested in meeting/adopting him just fill out a application at www.furrykidsrefuge.org, click on the 'Adopt A Dog' icon and a dedicated volunteer will be in touch. 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!!

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

This cutie patootie is Bronx! One thing you need to know about Bronx is that he is a hap hap happy boy! He finds joy in cheese treats, silly voices, smiling, car rides, pup cups with whipped cream, rolling in the grass, stretching out like a frog, and playing with stuffies. This guy is not high maintenance, we promise! Most of all, Bronx is happy being with his people and making them laugh. He is great with kids and shows them how much he appreciates their attention by giving them the sweetest kisses. If you're feeling not so happy, Bronx will be there to help you through the rough patches by listening to you and putting his excellent snuggle skills to work. He's a very good boy in the home, of course -- Bronx is housetrained and stays out of mischief when you're gone. A perfect gentleman, for sure! Bronx is good on leash, but a fenced yard would be fabulous. Bronx needs to be the only pup in his new home; it cuts down on competition for car rides and pup cups. Bronx would love to meet you! Just call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7287. Bronx is already neutered and is up to date on vaccines and microchipped. He's in the KC metro, but transport is available to the right home.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact Virginia (virginiak@tarasdream.org) for more information about this pet. Please visit our web site at https://tarasdream.org/adopt to fill out an adoption application for this pet and for more info about our adoption process. Peaches is about a year and a half old, large, ~60 pound, blue brindle pitbull-gorgeous gal. This lady has the best house manners! She is fully house trained, doesn’t seem to want to beg for food while you are eating, and loves to lounge around the house or fall asleep while cuddling on the couch with her humans. Now, this girl does get some energy from time to time and has cases of the Zoomies now and then. She can jump pretty high when she wants too - but then also asks for help getting into the car or on the couch :). Even when Peaches lets some energy out, she can calm down quickly and does seem to still pay attention to her humans’ commands and treats. Peaches is crate trained, but I wouldn’t say she loves it and prefers her dog bed instead. However, if you would like to crate at night, a milk bone will do the trick and she’ll be a nice patient lady and airing for morning. Peaches’ leash manners need some work. She has spent a lot of time at the shelter so more exposure and a consistent, patient human to help her realize how to walk on a leash is needed. She can be a bit wild when first on the leash, but when she does calm down, she seems to have a blast outside. As you can tell by her profile pictures, Peaches likes big dogs that match her energy and play level. Peaches hasn’t had success with smaller dogs. Peaches loves people and wants to be around them as much as possible! This girl is meant to be a wonderful human’s house hippo/cuddle (big) bug. Please come meet Peaches today! Approximate Birthdate: April 2023 Adoption Fee: $200 TARA's adoption fee includes: spay/neuter, age appropriate vaccinations, microchip, heartworm test (if age appropriate), heartworm and flea prevention, and deworming. TARA's pets are all eligible for a TWO WEEK TRIAL. Due to the fact that many of our dogs come from the local city shelters, we do not know the background of many of them and therefore cannot always guarantee age or breed. Size is subjective but we use the following guidelines: Small 1-20 pounds, Med 20-50 pounds, Large 50-80 pounds, Extra Large over 80 pounds. For more information please fill out an application.

Story

"Well, she's amazing. And adorable. And THE BEST SNUGGLER. She likes to bury herself in blankets on the couch, then get down and run around like a little kid in a ghost Halloween costume. She has had a few canines removed but still chews bones just fine. Her kisses are just a lil extra gummy. She hates storms and will charge out the door barking at the sky like it offended her ancestors if there is thunder." It's Wednesday, a pretty pit bull mix looking for a patient and loving home! She's initially timid with new people and things but is an affectionate, fun pooch once she knows you and settles in. Wednesday will thrive in a home of her own. All it takes is some time and plenty of treats and she'll open up to you and let you into her world. Wednesday will be your loyal companion every single day of the week. Wednesday is staying in the Kansas City metro, but transport is available to the right home. With her adoption, you'll get the ongoing support of The Pet Connection for her training needs! Call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387 any day of the week for more information on Wednesday! #thepetconnectionks #adoptdontshop #adoptWednesdaytoday

Story

Hidey ho, my human friends! I'm Cress, a 2-year-old pittie mix looking for my purpose in life. Oh, and a home, I'm also looking for a home. More specifically, I'm looking for an active home that will give me a job to do. Not like a paying job, mind you! I'm thinking more along the lines of a volunteer job. For example, want to fetch balls? I'm your girl! Want to play frisbee? That's me! How about running? I'm down with that! Want to play hide and seek with treats? I'm all in! You see, I have high energy and drive and need mental and physical exercise to keep me healthy and happy. Once I'm done with my "job" I settle in for some love and affection. I'm a really good student if you give me consistent training. I already know "sit" and am a good treat taker. As a bonus, I seem to like other dogs, with the proper introduction. (You just can't rush finding the right friends -- am I right?) Think we might be a good match? Call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387 for more information and to set up a meeting with me! Please contact The Pet Connection if you can foster, adopt, or sponsor a special needs dog or cat. 913-671-7387 Text. Www.thepetconnection.net.

Story

Dolce is a total doll and such a love bug. She's not even two years old, weighs about 40 pounds, and adores cuddling under blankets. She can't get enough of her orange ball, which she chews like gum. Tug of war is a whole lot of fun, too. And water? Oh, yes, please! Dolce looooves water. She might even be part duck! This girl has had a rough life and will need a patient human willing to give her some time and space to settle into her new home. Dolce would prefer a home without little kids because she thinks they are kind of scary. Please call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387 if you're interested in learning more about this lovely pup! Dolce is spayed and up to date on vaccines. She's eligible for a no- cost adoption with an encouraged donation to The Pet Connection. She's in the Kansas City metro, but we will transport her to the right home.
