My story

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

Meet Clyde

About 2 years old.

They Lied "Clyde", AKA Juzo, is asking for a second chance, and is pleading NOT GUILTY to the accusations of not being a good boy.
Clyde was accused of being not nice when he was brought in for incarceration. They said he showed his teeth and got a little too close to the people he was staying with.
Clyde stands by his word that he was just smiling, and he wanted a hug after they got home from work.
The jailers have deemed that he was wrongfully accused, and deserves a second chance, and is eligible for parole.
He's willing to stay under house arrest while he heals from his new prison tat and care from the prison doctors ( neuter and shots).
His description:
Tall
Dark fur with white spots
95lbs
Great Dane/Terrier mix
Big happy smile
Personality:
Snuggly- will invade your personal space
Happy- always smiling
Loving-great at kisses and hugs
Sleepy- slept the entire 15 minute drive to the vet
Playful- bouncy like a puppy in the play yard!
Things to watch for:
Not the best leash walker
Does not like the vet's scale
Is as tall as most people, and likes to hug.
Things to enjoy:
Amazing Car rider
Loyal
Affectionate
If you think you'd like to offer Clyde a place to spend his parole, maybe even a long term place to keep off of the streets and finish his rehabilitation, we'd love to talk with you a bit more!
Call 913-684-4939 for more information or an appointment to meet him.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process takes about 24 hours, unless prior arrangements have been made. Each applicant is required to submit two personal references and one veterinarian reference (if first time pet owner that is waived). Please email us for the adoption application form.

We also ask that an adopter's dog and the adoptable dog meet each other prior to finalizing the adoption. This is to protect you and both the dogs. We have an exercise yard and are happy to introduce them there while monitoring closely.

Adoption of multiple pets may qualify for an adoption fee discount if the fee is not already reduced.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Summer hours: Tuesday through Saturday 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. open to the public; closed Sunday and Monday. If these hours do not work with your schedule please don't hesitate to contact us. We have volunteers who are willing to meet outside of those hours for serious inquiries.

Our volunteers and adoptable pets can be seen at several public events such as the Fort Leavenworth PAIR Day (please stop by our booth/table and meet some of our volunteers and the furbabies they bring), running/walking with adoptable dogs in races and dropping by the farm supply store with an adoptable dog in tow or strolling through the farmer's market to help socialized dogs and find them matches.

We always need volunteers! Please contact us if you are interested. Commitment can range from a lot to not much time at all. We need help with regular shifts to care for animals, covering hours of operation, cleaning kennels, walking dogs, cuddling kittens, etc.

More about this shelter

Our facility is overseen by FMWR but is all volunteer staffed. We pride ourselves on the level of dedication as we are there for the love of the pets. Our volunteer duties range from walking dogs to cleaning kennels to volunteer recruitment and coordination.

We are proud to say we do not euthanize for need of space. We are a low-kill facility in that we minimize it to medical issues and extreme behavior issues. We have treated dogs for heartworm and other treatable medical issues to make them adoptable; we do not base our decisions on a pre-set rule but a guideline that allows us to handle every pet on a case-by-case basis.
