My name is Twila. I am 6 years old (dob 10-05-2020) and weigh 25 pounds ... I’m shiny and beautiful. I need a new home because I was a breeder release. I am being fostered in Kansas City, KS.

I have lived a restricted life since I was young. I am so happy to be free and clean and well taken care of. I am shy and a bit afraid of this new big world. I’m working to get used to my new life. It’s a little scary for a lady like me. I am determined to enjoy my new life.

I love my furry foster pals and would like to have a dog sister or brother in my forever home. I love my humans but don’t show it much. I’m not comfortable asking for affection but allow stroking of my velvety black fur. I very much enjoy my meals and love sleeping with my mom.

I have no issues with the other dogs in my foster home and I even attempt to play now and then. I get along with everyone but I’m still scared and will lay on the ground if I feel threatened. I would rather not be outside in the heat and pant easily. I’m not fond of taking a bath but it sure does feel good and I am not a big problem in the tub. I need a quiet home with patient humans that will allow me to come out of my shell in my own time.

Here's a little more about me:
Housetrained? No, but working on it
Leash-trained? No I’m still very afraid. I wear a harness but don’t willingly walk on the leash. We are working on it.
Rides well in car? Yes.
Good with other dogs? Yes
Good with cats? Not yet tested
Good with young children? I would be better off in a quiet adult home with people who want to spend time with me.
Good with strangers? I am currently afraid of strangers.
Shy or confident? Shy
Barks? Yes occasionally, mainly when playing
Apartment qualified? Yes as long as I have a pal.
Any Special needs or Health Issues? None
Adoption Fee? $ 325

All our dogs are spayed/neutered (if six months and older), up to date on rabies and distemper, heartworm tested, and microchipped. Other medical needs diagnosed while in foster care are also treated prior to adoption.

MABTR requires a fenced in area from families who own their home, however we DO adopt to apartment complexes and communities where fences are not permitted due to leases and covenants. In these cases a leash law must be enforced. We do not accept invisible fencing.

MABTR only adopts to families residing in NE, CO, MO, KS, IA, WY, SD, ND, ID, UT, MT, MN, and NW AR due to the lack of volunteer support in other states, no exception even if you are willing to drive.
