Sweet Pea's Story

Meet Sweet Pea! <br/><br/>With a name like Sweet Pea, you know this girl has to be pretty special. <br/><br/>Sweet Pea was one of a litter of 14 puppies who arrived at a rural Missouri shelter back in April when they were only around 2–3 months old. She and her siblings spent much of their puppyhood there, but thankfully, they were given plenty of opportunities to play, socialize, and interact with one another.<br/><br/>And Sweet Pea came out of it all as a happy, social, happy-go-lucky girl who is ready to see what life outside of a shelter is all about!<br/><br/>She loves getting out, playing, exploring, and spending time with other dogs. Having grown up surrounded by siblings and other canine friends, she's had lots of dog-to-dog socialization and would be a fun addition to a family looking for a young companion.<br/><br/>Sweet Pea is still a youngster, so her new family should be ready for all the fun that comes with adopting a young dog. She'll need continued guidance and training as she learns household routines, leash skills, and all the other things that come with being someone's beloved family dog.<br/><br/>But that's also the fun part—you get to show her!<br/><br/>Sweet Pea has spent most of her young life surrounded by 13 brothers and sisters. Now she's ready to find out what it's like to have something she's never had before:<br/><br/>A family of her very own. <br/><br/>If you're looking for a sweet, playful young dog who's ready to start her next adventure, Sweet Pea is waiting to meet you. <br/><br/>Basics: She is a spayed female guessed to be around 7-8 mo old and she weighs close to 25lbs. She is currently in a foster in Lenexa, KS<br/><br/>Adoption Process: <br/>- Please fill out our adoption application: https://www.dayofthedogs.org/adoption-application <br/><br/>- One of our team members will get back to you via phone. <br/>- Our dogs can be seen by appointment only. We do not have a facility at this time. Dogs are in foster homes or boarding <br/>- Adoption fee of $200 helps to cover transport costs, spay/neuter, initial vaccines, rabies, fecal, initial worming, and microchip. <br/>-We do not place holds on our dogs. Please do not contact us until you are prepared to adopt. NOTE: We are very good about updating the pet's profiles once adopted. So no need to write us to ask "Is he/she still available?" If the post is up, the dog is still available. <br/><br/>About Day of the Dogs<br/>Day of the Dogs is a volunteer-driven 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to helping shelter and rescue dogs find safety, families, and second chances.<br/>Founded in 2015 by a Kansas City native, Day of the Dogs began after Pam moved to Houston, Texas and witnessed firsthand the devastating shelter overcrowding crisis facing southern communities, where some shelters have only days to find an outcome for homeless pets.<br/>Today, Day of the Dogs coordinates life-saving transports from Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and other southern areas to rescue partners, shelters, fosters, and adopters in Northwest Indiana/Chicagoland and the Kansas City region — communities where adoption demand can help create better outcomes for pets in need. We also focus on long stay dogs in the Greater Kansas City and surrounding rural areas to help those pets get out of kennels and into homes.<br/>We also facilitate direct adoptions through our foster networks in both Kansas City and Northwest Indiana and partner with shelters and rescue organizations across Missouri, Kansas, Illinois, and Indiana to save more lives together.<br/>Because every open foster home creates another opportunity to save a dog, we are always looking for foster families to join our mission.<br/>Day of the Dogs operates entirely on donations. Every transport, veterinary appointment, supply purchase, and life saved is possible because of supporters who believe every dog deserves a chance.<br/>Donate or learn more: www.dayofthedogs.org

But that's also the fun part—you get to show her!

Sweet Pea has spent most of her young life surrounded by 13 brothers and sisters. Now she's ready to find out what it's like to have something she's never had before:

A family of her very own.
