Shepherd and Cattle Dog Dogs Available for Adoption

Quila is the whole package. She's beautiful but doesn't flaunt it; she weighs only 30 pounds, so she fits in just about anywhere; she has a fabulous personality; and she's a responsible grown adult at about six years old.

But that's not all! Quila has a variety of hobbies, too. If you want to go on long adventures, Quila is all in. Thinking about relaxing and cuddling at home? Quila's matching that energy, too. She loves car rides, pup cups, and is a perfect houseguest according to her foster home. She kennels well, knows several commands, and walks very nicely on a leash.

She does well with other dogs and seems to have a calming quality about her with dogs and people! She does well with cats and kids, although she keeps a close eye on the cats to make sure they don't do any sneaky kitty stuff.

Quila arrived at City of Raytown Animal Services in very rough shape and has come so far. Despite her past, Quila gives nothing but love in return. Call us about her. You'll be so happy you did.

Call/text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387. Quila is in the Kansas City metro, but transport might be available to the right home.
