Meet Pan — an 8-year-old gentle giant with a heart every bit as big as his 120-pound frame! Don’t let his size fool you—this goofy, lovable boy is as sweet and easygoing as they come. Pan is currently living his best life in a foster home, enjoying comfort, routine, and plenty of love while he waits for his forever family to find him.
Pan is a smart, well-mannered companion who is fully house-trained and does great free-roaming when left alone. He knows an impressive list of tricks, including sit, down, shake, and even balancing treats on his nose—he loves showing off for a little attention (or a tasty reward!).
Pan is hoping for a calmer, adults-only home where he can feel relaxed and confident.
According to his previous owner, Pan is playful and full of life when it’s time for fun, but he’s just as happy to settle in and unwind when the day winds down. He’s the perfect mix of active and mellow, always ready to go with the flow. With his big heart and gentle soul, Pan would love a home with plenty of space to stretch out, explore, and enjoy life at his own pace.
Pan is currently living in a foster home. If you’d like to meet him, please email foster@kcpetproject.org
He previously got to spend a few afternoons outside the shelter and this is what we learned about him: “Pan showed off just how good he is! He was an absolute gem! He stepped right up into the back of the car and occupied his time between sticking his head out the window and laying down and resting. Honestly there were a few points when I forgot he was in the car at all! Our first stop of the day was picking up some lunch for everyone. Pan quickly became the star of the show in the drive through line without even trying! This is one handsome boy! Pan is such an easy walker! If you get him running it is more like watching a horse gallop by. At one of our stops there was even a huge group of geese and he could not have been bothered in the slightest by them.”
Pan is up to date on his vaccinations, neutered, microchipped and ready to go home with you today!
His ADOPTION FEE IS WAIVED! We want all our dogs to have homes as quickly as possible. In an effort to help dogs with longer stays, those who are deteriorating in the shelter environment, or who are harder to place find homes more quickly, the adoption fee for this dog has been waived.

Thanks so much for considering adoption! At KC Pet Project we have no blanket rules. Our goal is to find the pet that is right for YOUR family. The adoption process takes about an hour and does not require you filling out any paperwork ahead of time – you’ll do that once you’ve met someone and decide it’s a good fit. If you have another dog at home, we would like to have a supervised introduction with your pet(s) and our pet. Details about the introduction process can be found below.
You can view all of our adoptable dogs online at – we update their availability and location in real time. If you see them, they are still available for adoption. When you click on their photo it will show their location. There is no appointment needed to visit our pets.
You can visit any of our three locations seven days a week and find a pet that you’re interested in, or meet someone in foster at a mutually agreed upon location. We will have you fill some things out and then go through an adoption interview with a staff member. If all goes well, we’ll send you home with them that day. They’ll have been spayed/neutered, microchipped, have age appropriate vaccines, have been heartworm tested, and have received intestinal dewormer.
Small dogs, puppies, and specialty breeds go quickly here at KC Pet Project. If your schedule allows, you are encouraged to visit our dogs here at the shelter, as we often times have these dogs but they are on stray hold. If you see a pet you are interested in but they are not currently available, you have the option of putting down an Early Bird hold. The EB hold is $50 and $25 of it is a non-refundable donation to us that gives you first right of adoption if the dog is not reclaimed, and the other $25 is deducted from the dog’s adoption fee.
All of our adopters are expected to have a proper leash and collar for their dogs or a carrier to take home cats, which can be found in the retail section of any of our locations. If you live in Kansas City, MO, you should also expect to purchase a city license tag for $12 – this is something you’ll renew each year upon vaccinating your pet.
If you need to introduce your pet(s) to our pet: We recommend visiting an animal first to make sure that it is a good candidate for your home, and so that you have free hands. If you decide you would like to proceed with a meet and greet, please bring your dog to the location where your adoption candidate lives and staff will assist you. If visiting the main shelter, please do not bring your dog into the kennel area. Instead, have someone you trust hold onto your dog and notify a staff member that you are here for the introduction, or you can leave them in your car if it is weather appropriate. KCPP staff will let your dog and our dog drag a leash and greet each other naturally, without you present so that the introduction can be as objective as possible. Please plan on separating your newly adopted dog from your current dog on your drive home (in a kennel, for example), unless you have assistance.
Adoption Fees:
Adult mixed breed dogs: $75-150
Small breed dogs and puppies: $150-300
Cats: $25-$75
Kittens: $50 – $125
