Megan's Paws & Claws - City of Smithville, Missouri Dog Pound Megan's Paws & Claws is a municipal dog pound run by the City of Smithville, MO. Megan's Paws & Claws is the local dog pound for the City of Smithville.

We are are No-Kill facility and we strive to keep the dogs in our pound as comfortable and healthy as possible while in our care before being reunited or adopted with their owners. We do not have cats at our pound and we do not take owner surrenders. If you find a stray dog please call the dispatch line at 816-858-3521 and the Smithville Police will attempt to find it and bring it to the pound. Th

e owner will have 10 days to claim the dog before it will be vetted and placed up for adoption. If you're interested in meeting our adoptable dogs, please call 816-532-0577. Adoption fee is $200.00 which includes spay/neuter, heartworm test, microchip and vaccinations on all dogs up for adoption. No adoptable dog leaves without being properly vetted and altered. The dogs and staff truly appreciate everything this community does. The pound wouldn't be what it is today without the support of the Smithville community!

🐾 Adopt Benny or Pepper! 🐾

These two sweet boys have been waiting far too long for their forever homes—and they’re absolutely perfect!

✨ Benny
Benny came to us on June 20th after spending time at the Gladstone Shelter, and we can’t believe he’s still here. He’s only had one person interested so far, but their pup wasn’t too sure about having a new brother. Benny loves kids, enjoys other dogs, and adores cuddles with his people. He has great energy (without the chaos of a puppy at 6 years old!), is potty-training, and already kennel-trained. He’s a total lovebug who just needs someone to give him a chance.

✨ Pepper
Pepper is about 1–2 years old, goofy, playful, and full of love. He’s obsessed with playing ball and “keep away,” and he especially loves when other dogs join in on toy time—he’ll even shove toys right into their faces begging them to play! Pepper is wonderful with kids and other dogs, and his sweet, fun personality makes him such a joy to be around.

Both boys are neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped—all ready to go home!

📞 If you’re interested in meeting Benny or Pepper, please send us a message here or call 816-532-0070.

Help us share their stories so they can finally find the homes they deserve! ❤️
