Story
If you're looking for that bully breed smile and cuddling personality then Sadie is your girl! She's all love and wiggles with humans and doesn't know a stranger. She is good with most other dogs, but can be over reactive to high arousal situations. Meaning no dog parks for this girl. She loves to play with toys and will throw the toy and chase it down herself. She loves her people and wants to be with you. She doesn't like cats and she's nervous in new situations. Sadie came from a terrible hoarding situation. (https://www.kshb.com/news/local-news/ray-county-sheriffs-office-breaks-up-puppy-mill-50-to-70-dogs-found-on-property) she is looking for a forever home willing to give her stability, rules, and help her be her best self. Sadie is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $200. At Autumn Acres Animal Rescue we believe each individual animal matters. We take in special cases some of which will stay with us as a sanctuary dog.If the animal is listed as a Socially Imperfect Dog this means they have special needs and special requirements for potential adopters.If the animal is listed as a Socially Imperfect RESIDENT this animal is NOT available for adoption and is one of our sanctuary residents. We list them on our sites because they still matter and they still need donations to help with their long term care.Check out our website for more information: http://www.autumnacres.org

Story
Kylo is a TON of fun! He loves to play ball and is such a doll doing it that you won't want to stop, even when your arm gets sore. He's a sweet, derpy kind of pup, which is our very favorite kind. He's met a dog-friendly cat and did just fine. He likes other dogs, too! Kylo loves his human friends a LOT, so much that his excitement bubbles over into his puppy toes and he jumps for joy and wants to touch you sooooo badly, but tries really hard not to. Even so, his exuberance might be a titch much for the little kids. Kylo is so eager to please people that he's learning basic obedience, the ins and outs of being the best dog he can be, at The Pet Connection (Official) and loving every minute of it. Treats sure do make it even more fun for Kylo and the other dogs in our care! But he's already 12/10 a very good boy! Kylo takes food soooo gently that you wouldn't even know he has teeth. Call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387 for more info! Kylo is in the KC metro but transport is available to the right home.

Story
Georgie, our friend from @Valentine's Second Chance Animal Rescue, adores being with people. It doesn't matter what you're doing-- reading a book, working, going for a walk, puttering in the yard--being with you will bring Georgie joy. How wonderful is it that just spending time with you can make this lovely, precious boy so darned happy? You see, Georgie came from a shelter in Kansas where too many dogs don't make it out alive. But Georgie was lucky and he seems genuinely grateful to be here, with people who want to be with him. Now we're on a mission to find the people who will give Georgie the gift of companionship, of love, of a HOME. That's where you come in! We need you to share Georgie's story and help him find a home for the holidays. Please share to help this guy find a home! Georgie is about three years old and weighs 65 pounds. He is an excellent snuggle buddy who will take every opportunity to sneak in a kiss when you're least expecting it. He is getting better about walking on leash but can still get distracted at times (no doubt stopping to smell the roses), and likes going for rides in the car. Georgie likes most other dogs, too! He would love a home with adults only or older kids because little kids are scary for Georgie, and we want Georgie to feel safe. Want to bring this big baby home with you? Call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387. Georgie is in the Kansas City metro, but transport is available to the right home. #thepetconnection #adoptdontshop #georgie #dogkisses #AdoptGeorgie #KansasCityDogs #DogAdoption #RescueDog #PetRescue #DogsofInstagram #GeorgiesJourney

Story
This baby is Hulk, our friend from City of Raytown Animal Services. He's a beautiful white American Bully mix with blue eyes. He's around a year old and a very nice boy. He loves to meet new people and other dogs. He has not been around cats yet. Hulk is partially deaf and The Pet Connection can help you out with training techniques that will be most effective for him. Deaf dogs adjust just fine to most households! Call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387 for more info! Hulk is in the Kansas City metro, but transport might be available to the right home.

Story
Diego is my name and finding a home is the game! You know that character Peter Pan, a lost boy who never wanted to grow up? That's me! I don't ever want to grow up, and I'll keep these puppy dog eyes forever. The great news is that I don't come with all the puppy behaviors just all the cuteness. I'll let you smush my wrinkly face to your hearts desire. I am a goofy, loving boy looking to fill someones lap and bed! I am food motivated, I know some basic skills, and am happy to learn more. Do you love to play? I do! Other dogs in the home? Great, I love them! Help a lost boy out and give me a place to be found forever! All dogs are spayed or neutered, microchipped, Heartworm tested (6 months and above) and current on vaccinations and preventions prior to adoption. At the time of adoption all dogs are signed up with a unique Safe Paws QR pet ID tag, the adopter is required to maintain a monthly membership of $2.99/month for (at minimum) the first year. This helps insure your new furry family member makes his way back to you if lost. Leashes and collars are also required at the time of adoption. You are welcome to bring your own, or we have plenty to choose from at the shelter as well. If the pet you fall in love with is not quite ready for adoption, we do offer a $50 hold deposit that will insure you have first "dibs" on adoption. Once an animal is available for adoption, we are not able to hold them, as there are so many animals waiting to come into our program. Midwest Animal ResQ offers a 30-day adjustment period within which you can evaluate the pet's progress and your adoption decision. If, within those 30 days, you determine your recently adopted pet isn't a good fit, you may return the animal and receive a MARQ credit that can be used toward the adoption of another animal. Our biggest priority is finding the very best match for you, and Completing Families one Tail at a Time! Our shelter is located at 10312 East 63rd Street in Raytown, MO. We are open to meet pets Tuesday through Friday from 10-6, and on Saturday and Sunday from 10-5. We are closed on Mondays. You are welcome to fill out our quick 10 question adoption survey to facilitate a quicker process. This will also start the meeting process for those animals in foster. https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/MARQ/Dog

Story
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.  Bennett was found and taken to the shelter where he was not reclaimed. Initially he would not put his right back leg on the ground, and an x-ray showed that his femur had been broken previously, but was healing and did not require surgery. In the six weeks since that x-ray, it has healed very well, and he only favors it slightly now. Bennett is a love bug. He’s never met a stranger, and he likes cats and kids and other dogs. He is an excitable boy though so we recommend kids 6 or older as he may knock little ones down with his friendly enthusiasm! In his first foster home since being in the shelter, he has shown to be completely house trained. He’s a smart boy and just wants to please. What Bennett wants and deserves is to snuggle on the couch with someone who will love him forever. Approximate Birthdate:  March 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.     CONTACT INFO The Animal Rescue Alliance (TARA) Web site: tarasdream.org Adoption Information & Applications: https://tarasdream.org/adopt Upcoming Adoption Events: https://tarasdream.org/events Email: email@tarasdream.orgMarch 24, 2025, 12:22 pm
