Story
Homer is a 1 - 2 yr old male Kelpie mix. He has a high energy level, so he would benefit from an active family with a fenced yard and plenty of space for daily exercise and play. He is loose and wiggly when greeting, and comes when called for snuggles. He also loves to hop up into your lap for hugs and kisses. Homer does moderately pull on a leash, but with basic obedience training, he should be walking like a champ in no time! He is food motivated, and knows the command sit. He mixes well with other dogs in a kennel and is indifferent towards cats in the shelter environment. Dogs are generally tested with dogs of their own size; and dog meets with the resident dogs are always encouraged. Our cat test should be used as a general-purpose screening only to rule out overt aggression; we always recommend caution when introducing dogs to cats in the home. Recommendation on suitability of placement with children by their ages is based on behavioral observations including energy level and response to body handling. We never recommend leaving young children unsupervised with dogs, and we cannot guarantee the behavior of dogs with children, other pets, or cats. Behavior evaluations should be considered as a snapshot of the behavior of the dog at this point in time; JHS believes all dog families need to be prepared to invest time and energy into training as well as provide common sense management of their new dog. We always encourage family to do some research on the breeds or mixes of breeds prior to adoption as many can have some unique characteristics that may or may not fit into their families. Always remember that the majority of dogs at our shelter have been exposed to or may have kennel cough. Kennel cough is contagious to other dogs, please talk to your vet if you have any questions about kennel cough prior to adoption. Please ask your adoption counselor at time of adoption if you have any unanswered questions regarding illnesses and treatments of the pet that you are adopting. For more information about this dog or any others at our Shelter, please visit www.joplinhumane.org. We are the Joplin Humane Society in Joplin, Missouri. 417-623-3642. I AM SPONSORED!

Story
Meet King, an adult Blue Heeler mix with a heart full of love. His friendly and sweet nature is truly infectious. He's playful, always ready for a game of fetch or a walk in the park. But don't be fooled, King knows when it's time to mellow out. He's gentle and cuddly, making him the perfect companion for those quiet evenings at home. King is also smart, quickly picking up new commands and tricks. He's a loyal friend, ready to offer unconditional love and companionship. King deserves a forever home where he can share his boundless love and joy. King is a 2 - 3 yr old male Blue Heeler mix. He has a medium energy level, so he should fit in well with most homes provided he receives a moderate amount of daily exercise and play. He walks well on a leash with no pulling. King is food motivated, and knows the commands sit and down. He mixes well with other dogs in a kennel, but is afraid of cats in the shelter environment.
