ADOPT ME!

LOCATION: Kansas City
AGE: 3 yrs

TEMPERAMENT: extremely well behaved, sweet temperament. Passed every single phase of a tough temperament test

CAMI is a gorgeous girl who is the victim of horribly misdirected good intentions. SHE WAS DUMPED IN A LOCAL SHELTER BECAUSE SHE WAS, IN THE OWNER'S WORDS, "AN UNWANTED GIFT". We cringe to think of these majestic animals tossed around carelessly as a "gift." She nearly lost her life because of someone thought it would be cool to give a dog as a gift. We hope everyone will learn that living animals are NOT and NEVER SHOULD BE "gifts." Many of them end up euthanized when the new owners can't cope with them or don't want them.

CAMI is one of the lucky few. We got an emergency plea to save this girl. In her own words, here's her story.

Hello, it's very nice to meet you! I'm very confused right now ... the nice people helping me said I need to tell you my story but I'm not sure why. I've always tried to be a good girl but still I got passed around because people just couldn't find the time or room for me. Last time my guardian gave me away as a "gift" to another guardian. Only they didn't want me. So instead of finding me a home they dumped me in a shelter, washed their hands and walked away without even looking back to see if I was okay.

Believe me, that hurt! A lot. I've got a great disposition, the only thing I need work on is I can get protective of my food (because in my former homes they didn't give me enough and now I just need you to show me the right way, won't take long).

PLEASE .. PLEASE .. PLEASE ... I want a forever home with a forever family who will love me and take me with them wherever they move. I don't want to ever be dumped again just because I became "inconvenient" for someone. I love you too much to go throuh that again, it would literally break my heart.

So I'd love to meet you and go home with you! I'd love to sleep on a comfy bed at night near you or with you! Sound good? Call me! Come see me! Let's make beautiful music together!

I'm healthy, beautiful, and very sweet. I only need training on one thing (food guarding) and other than that I'm pretty much the perfect pet. So far I've had rotten luck with humans but I think my luck is about to change since they now have me on this site. ARE YOU MY NEW FOREVER FAMILY???

I've got so much love to give all bottled up inside but so far no one has wanted it....

CAMI's adoption fee is $300.

THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING A HOMELESS DOG OR CAT.

OVER 4 MILLION INNOCENT DOGS AND CATS ARE KILLED EVERY YEAR IN THE U.S. BECAUSE NO ONE WANTS THEM.

THOUSANDS OF WONDERFUL FAMILY DOGS AND CATS DIE EACH DAY IN OUR SHELTERS.

STOP THE SLAUGHTER.
DON'T BUY WHILE OTHERS DIE.

STOP!! READ THIS BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER!

1. We're picky about our adopters. 
2. Are you sure you're up to having a GSD?  They're not for everyone.  They take a lot of time, effort, training.  They shed year round.  They're big.  They scare lots of people.  They "mouth" and herd.  They're usually strong-willed and stubborn.  You have to have references and a home visit.  If you're not willing or able to deal with any of this, please don't waste your time or ours applying.  
   
3. Will the dog be an inside family pet? We do not adopt to outdoor-only homes. All dogs must be indoor dogs.
4. Do you leave your dog outdoors when you're not home?   We do not adopt to homes that leave their animals outside when they're gone.  You must put your dogs indoors when you're gone.  A 3 yr old adopted MOGS dog died when the owners went to run errands, left her outdoors, the gate was somehow opened, and she was hit by a car.  Tragic and 100% preventable. Even privacy fences get broken into.  Gates are opened.  Thieves steal dogs. Never leave your dog outdoors when you're not home!!
   
5. What's your plan for unexpected events and major changes?  New baby? Divorce?  Moving?   How you will provide for your dog if your family breaks up? 
   
6. Will you make a lifetime commitment?  It's your responsibility to keep your dog safe, loved and cared for FOR LIFE.
7.  Do you understand we expect you to keep that lifetime commitment?  It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to stick by your family member -- no matter what.
8. Are you unable or unwilling to make a lifetime commitment? Do not apply.
