** FOSTER ME or ADOPT ME **



LOCATION: Kansas City, MO Area 
AGE:  Approx. 3 years old
TEMPERAMENT:  Very friendly towards women

Dakota seems to be a woman's dog, very friendly and snuggly toward me, she liked my husband but was more friendly to the women around her.

Dakota's former owner put her mother in a nursing home and took in the mother's Boston Terriers, promising to take care of them for her.  According to the owner, Dakota tried to attack the Boston's.  I believe she was not introduced properly to the Boston's, as she was not a socialized dog and was overwhelmed.  We talked to the vet - where the owner dumped Dakota - Friday and he had said at first that she was dog aggressive, but when we went up and talked to him today, he said he noticed she did not seem to be aggressive towards the other animals there.  We took our older male GSD to meet her and she was very shy at first but she did allow him to meet and greet her then they checked each other out and all was good.

 
We don't know how Dakota is around children or cats. We are fairly certain that she is completely potty trained.
 
Dakota needs a forever home.  She's scared to death at the kennel and has no idea what's happening or why she isn't at home anymore.  None of this is her fault but she's paying the consequences anyway.
 
Won't you take this special and beautiful girl into your home and heart?

Dakota's adoption fee is $300.  For an explanation of our fees, policies, and what vetting is covered, please visit us at: www.mogsrescue.petfinder.com. 

For an application, please go to our website: http://mogsrescue.rescuegroups.org and fill out an online application.

Is Not Good with Dogs

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.
