My story

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

Dixie, approximately 13 years old, joined our program following her owner's passing. Believed to be a pug mix, she tips the scales at around 30 pounds. Dixie is endearing yet prone to anxiety. Initially, she may bark at cats, but once acclimated, she coexists peacefully with them. She also fares well with her foster's other dogs, as they tend to disregard each other. Dixie is house-trained and in search of a comfortable couch to call her own.

More about this rescue

The Heart of America Humane Society is an all-volunteer, 501(c)3 non-profit organization helping to place shelter and foster animals into permanent homes in and around the greater Kansas City metro area.

Our goal is to save and improve the lives of Kansas City's homeless companion animals by promoting responsible pet ownership. The Heart of America Humane Society (HAHS) partners with the Lee's Summit Animal Shelter (Lee's Summit MO) and KCK Animal Services (Kansas City KS) to increase pet adoptions into responsible, permanent homes.

Background
Our organization does not have a permanent facility or paid staff, so many of our adoptions take place at PetSmart stores and occasionally through other event venues. Some events raise awareness and bring in donations for our animal support efforts, while others help acknowledge and show appreciation for our own volunteers (who perform all duties outside of their regular jobs).
