How to Adopt

If you see a dog or cat that you are interested in, please call us at 913-321-1445 or visit our shelter during adoption hours. Many of our dogs also attend satellite adoption events on the weekends and that information is listed below. Please note that we have MANY more dogs and cats than are posted on our web site and new ones come in weekly.  Call or visit us for more info on our pets who have not been photographed yet.

The Ray of Hope Program

In 2009 we partnered with The Humane Society of Greater Kansas City, volunteers, no-kill rescues and shelters, and breed rescue groups. The Ray of Hope program significantly reduced euthanasia in our shelter to under 1% in 2010, down from 70% in 2007. Our partnership includes transfers of pets to no-kill groups, spaying and neutering of all of those pets, weekend satellite events, and distributing information on low-cost spaying and neutering to the KCK community.

For more information on The Ray of Hope and how you can help (besides adopting!), visit The Humane Society of Greater Kansas City web site.

Would You Like to Provide a Foster Home for a Dog?

If you are interested in fostering dogs from KCK Animal Control, please send an email to karen@hsgkc.org. Include what type of dog you can accommodate and we will connect you with one of our Ray of Hope rescue partners. Our rescue partners can take more dogs from us and find them good homes if they have more foster homes. And that allows us to save more lives!
