My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Dino is a handsome 7-year-old Pit Bull mix that has been with us since May 2022. He came from Animal Control where his time was up and he was going to be put down - we couldn't let that happen. Dino is looking for an active home to call his own! He is such a good boy and has become a staff favorite over the past year. His perfect home would have no other pets or kids, as he wants to soak up all of your attention. A backyard to run around in would be a big bonus! Dino is ready to go on fun adventures with you, and we promise your home will be filled with lots of love with him by your side!

More about this shelter

The mission of the Humane Society of Southwest Missouri is to aid in the alleviation of distress and suffering of animals by operating a shelter in need of care, placing animals in suitable homes, and offering educational programs that promote animal welfare.

We receive our animals from people giving up their pets for a variety of reasons, including changes in family situations and moving. Some of our animals have been strays rescued from the streets by a kind citizen, but all of our animals are looking for permanent, loving forever homes.
