Otis is a young pup that will make the PERFECT pet! He is young, estimated to be around 6 months old. Perfect age to be trained! He is about 36 pounds, and we think he is an English Pointer. He came to us after being dumped with his littermates at a rural residence. Otis is timid, but very quickly warms up! Once he trusts you, which doesn't take long, it's game on. He's the kind of guy that will stare into your soul - his eyes just melt you! Otis has had playtime with other dogs and flourished. He is a playful, sweet pup. He is rather calm for his age. His personality is just perfect! He would love a canine sibling, or two! We hope he can find a home this weekend 🙏

Applicants must have a secure visible fence no less than 4-6 feet high. Applicants will be screened, including a home check. If you would like to meet Otis, apply at dirksfund.com. All members of the household, including other dogs, must come to meet him before finalizing the adoption. Other dogs in the home must be current on vaccinations and altered. Adoption hours are 10-2 Saturdays and Sundays. Pacific, MO.

Goose wasn’t at his best for posing, but this happy go lucky boy went straight to his new forever home to recuperate after a day of getting his necessary vetting. In a short time he will be having the time of his life playing ball with his two human big brothers. In the meantime he will be giving snuggles to help mend the hearts of his new family after the loss of their beloved Lab. Goose’s new name is Theo. Happy Tails Theo!

Kimba still waits for her forever home. We love her at Dirks, but it’s not the same as having her own home and family. Her wish list includes another playful dog or maybe some older kids to run and play with. Or if getting more walking and exercise is on your wish list, she’s your girl! If you’re considering adding a great dog to your family, please come and meet Kimba!

Hitch has been very sad without a family of her own, but now she has one! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to the family who is giving Hitch a loving home to live out her golden years. We hope you will join the Dirks Alumni Page so we can keep up with her story. Happy Ever After Hitch! 💖

What we love most about Kimba is her joyful attitude and love of people despite her horrific treatment by some despicable humans. When found, she was in sad shape, caked with f***s, and her tail and ears had been cut off with DIY stitches still in her ears. It was her lucky day when she was taken in and cared for by Dirks Alumni who then contacted us.

Kimba is around 2 years old, 75 lbs and is a Great Pyrenees mix. She is loving and playful, and really knows how to enjoy playing with toys! She would make a great family pet for someone with older kids or for a couple or single she could bond with. She’s good on leash and in the car. She seems to be house trained. We’re working with her to not jump up on people, but she loves everyone so much it’s hard for her to remember, so further training would be good for her. She is selective about her canine friends and unknown about cats.

Applicants must have a secure visible fence a minimum of 4 feet high. Applicants will be screened, including a home check.

If you would like to meet Kimba, complete an application at dirksfund.com. All members of the household, including other dogs, must come to meet her. Other dogs in the home must be current on vaccinations and altered. Adoption hours are 10-2 Saturdays and Sundays. Pacific, MO.

Otis is one handsome pup! Our vet estimates he is 6-7 months old and identified him as a Pointer. Google says English Pointer. He weighed 36 lbs and was so good for his vaccinations and microchip and later was a perfect gentleman for a nail trim at the shelter. We can definitely see his bird dog genetics when he is in the play yard and is intensely interested in the birds. He and his littermates were dumped at a home in a rural area. Otis loves everyone and will make an excellent family pet. He will do well with a compatible dog friend, and at such a young age would likely be able to get used to living with cats.

Applicants must have a secure visible fence a minimum of 4 feet high. Applicants will be screened, including a home check.

Our beauty queen Willow is hoping this will be the weekend she finds her new forever family. One look into her beautiful eyes and you’ll be in love. She was rehomed by a breeder, but she jumped the fence, so was returned, but the breeder didn’t want her back. She was then fostered until she could find an adopter or rescue. Up stepped Dirks, and here she is! Willow is a Great Pyrenees, 86 lbs, 2-1/2 years old. Not only is she beautiful; she is well mannered, house trained, likes other dogs and is good with kids. Cats are not her friends.

Applicants must have a secure visible fence a minimum of 5-6 feet high and not chainlink. Applicants will be screened, including a home check.

If you would like to meet Willow, apply at dirksfund.com. All members of the household, including other dogs, must come to meet her. Other dogs in the home must be current on vaccinations and altered. Adoption hours are 10-2 Saturdays and Sundays. Pacific, MO.

Who’s a good boy? CHARLIE’s a good boy! This guy is 80 lbs of personality, all good! Charlie is a 2-1/2 years old Lab mix with all the good traits of a Lab. He knows some commands, sit, paw and down to name a few. He’s good on leash, good in the car, unknown about cats and house trained. He would be great with older kids to throw a ball for him. He’s great at retrieving! There’s nothing negative we can say about this guy.
Charlie came to us from a small animal control in southern Missouri where he had been picked up as a stray. They were able to determine he had an owner who no longer wanted him and released him to be adopted. Charlie is wishing for a forever home where he will be a treasured part of his family.

Applicants must have a secure visible fence a minimum of four feet high. Applicants will be screened, including a home check.

Lucky and Tator are sisters that recently came to us. They are doodle mixes, and on the smaller side for size. They are estimated to be around 12-18 months old. They have the prettiest coloring on their coats, though we are working on getting through some of their matting still 😪 They have been so tolerant of us grooming them and trimming them up to help them feel better! They are gentle huggers, and as sweet as can be. We hope these girls won't be here long. They can be adopted together or separately.

Applicants must have a secure visible fence no less than 4-6 feet high. Applicants will be screened, including a home check. If you would like to meet Tator or Lucky, apply at dirksfund.com. All members of the household, including other dogs, must come to meet them before finalizing the adoption. Other dogs in the home must be current on vaccinations and altered. Adoption hours are 10-2 Saturdays and Sundays. Pacific, MO.

Otis is continuing to win over the hearts of everyone he meets 💕Google identifies his picture as an English Pointer. He’s a little gentleman and was great for his nail trim. Otis is going to be a great dog for whomever is luckly enough to adopt him!
