🥳 🐾 🚨 It's ADOPTION SATURDAY! Come see us and get some puppy snuggles!

Come meet our available puppies and dogs on Adoption Saturday at Pet Supplies Plus - Lee's Summit, 438 SW Ward Rd, Lee's Summit, MO! You can find out more information about Pawsitive Tails, donate, and pet our available pups! Our adoption fee covers spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccinations, microchip, and flea/tick/heartworm prevention. Adoption fee varies based on age. For more information or to submit your adoption application ahead of time, go to PawsitiveTailsKC.org!

Adoption events are great opportunities to meet several of our available dogs at the same time. And it's the only time when you can meet them without having an approved application on file. It's also a perfect time to get to know a little more about Pawsitive Tails and meet our wonderful village of fosters and volunteers. We couldn't do what we do without them!! If you've ever thought about fostering, come check us out and ask our fosters all the questions you have. We'd love to meet you!

"We only have space for one," the rescue coordinator told me on the phone. "You have to pick." I looked at Barnaby and Buster, staring at me through the wire. The shelter manager checked his watch. "You have 5 minutes to decide, or they both go to the back. We need this kennel."
This is the part of rescue nobody talks about. Sophie’s Choice.
Barnaby and Buster were the last two of a litter of eight. The cute ones with the blue eyes got adopted. The ones with the unique markings got adopted. These two? Just two brown dogs. "Generic" Pits.
They had been on the euthanasia list since Tuesday. It was Thursday morning. The shelter was clearing space for a hoarding intake.
I looked at Barnaby. He wagged his tail so hard his whole body wiggled. Then I looked at Buster. He brought me a slobbery, destroyed tennis ball and pushed it through the fence.
How do you choose? How do you look at two souls and say, "You live, you die"?
The clock was ticking. I could hear the barking of the dogs already being moved to the euthanasia room down the hall.
I opened the cage door. Barnaby jumped into my arms. Buster sat down and lowered his head, like he knew he was the one staying behind. He didn't try to fight it. He just accepted it.
That resignation broke me.
I looked at the shelter manager. "I'm not picking."
"Then you have to leave," he said.
"No. I'm taking them both. I don't have a foster lined up. I don't have the crates. My husband is going to divorce me. But I am not leaving one of these boys to die on a cold floor without his brother."
I shoved them both into one large crate in my trunk.
My husband didn't divorce me (barely). And we didn't foster them. We failed. We failed miserably.
Now, Barnaby and Buster are 80lbs each. They destroy my lawn. They hog the bed. They have terrible gas.
And every time I look at them, I remember that Buster was ready to die so his brother could live.
We didn't save them. They saved us.

I had the pleasure to dog sit my two favorite fur babies Sandy and Little Bella. I love these two babies as if they were my own and it was so nice to snuggle with Bella and hang out with my sweet boy Sandy. Of course Bella is the Boss of everybody. Lol And let’s not forget the new addition Pepper the tailless young cat…she is very affectionate and loves to greet you at the door. 🫶🏻😸🐶❤️❤️

Protect your pets this winter. When temperatures drop, make sure your pets are safe and warm indoors. Extreme cold can be dangerous for animals, just like it is for humans. If it's too cold for you, it's too cold for them!

‼️ If it's too cold for you, it's too cold for your pets ‼️

With below-freezing temperatures in the forecast, it's important to remember that leaving animals outside in winter weather puts them at extreme risk of frostbite and hypothermia. Exposed noses, ears and paws can quickly freeze and suffer permanent damage.

Say something…do something!

It can be a crime to leave pets outside in extreme temperatures without food and shelter since winter can be deadly, so please speak up.
