Meet Busta Rhymes! His date of birth is Dec. 14, 2021 and he’s a 60-pound tan German Shepherd/ Labrador mix. Busta Rhymes has a lot of energy and would thrive in a home that can help him burn it off with walks on a leash or playing ball (which he loves). Busta received training previously and knows the commands: sit, down, wait, place and come. He is a wonderful dog, but his new family would need to be able to keep a close eye on him if another dog is around or if meeting a dog for the first time. He does great with kids of all ages and is house and crate trained. Adopters can complete an application at www.havenoftheozarks. org/adopt. No appointment is needed. The Haven is open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., seven days a week. All Haven of the Ozarks pets are fixed, up to date on their vaccinations, and microchipped. For more information, people may email havenozarksanctuary@ gmail.com, or call at 417-835-3647. Contributed photo

Meet the marvelous Montgomery! He is a good-looking boy who was lucky enough to land in the yard of a very nice couple to care for him after he was dumped to try to survive on his own. Montgomery is looking for a new forever family to love on him, provide him with a yard to run in and a comfy bed to sleep in. He loves to play and is high energy. He is good with cats, good with dogs, good with children and is house and crate trained. He has even attended dog training classes. He would love to have a dog friend in his new home to play with and keep him entertained. He is tan colored with white around his neck. His estimated date of birth is Oct. 12, 2023. His breed is unknown, but he is possibly a pit mix. Montgomery can climb a chain link fence, so a tall privacy fence would be best for him. Come get this perfect dog.
