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!

Nova is back and is looking for her forever home! She is a 1-2 year old pittie mix who adores kids and all humans! She is a social butterfly with other dogs too! She would benefit having another playful doggy friend to hang out with at home. It's unknown how she is with cats.

She is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.

She will be available for adoption next week, after the holiday weekend.

🩵TUCKER PUPDATE!🩵

Cute video in comments!
Tucker is settling in with his new family super well. He was sliding on the floor so he got socks. Tucker has become a sensation at Hill's Pet Nutrition and got a spotlight from Sporting KC soccer team. He is warming up to his new kitty friends, and is even jumping in the bed to cuddle with the whole family! Tucker also was a great help at a recent workplace training through NAMI talking about mental health in the workplace. He gave everyone love and support as we spoke about how mental health impacts our lives!

Our friends at Gladstone Animal Shelter checked for a microchip and the pup is reunited with the family who lives 3 hours away! Crazy!

Microchip your pets! 🐾

A family pet is back home with its owners in Iowa after a Gladstone, Missouri man found the dog in his neighborhood over the weekend.

🚨 Dogs Can Die in a Hot Car in Just 6 Minutes. 🚨

This is not a warning — it’s a fact. Temperatures inside a parked car can become deadly in minutes, even with the windows cracked.

Leaving a dog in a hot car is animal abuse. It is cruel, it is dangerous, and it is preventable.

Be a responsible pet owner. They count on you to protect them, not to leave them to suffer and die.
If you can’t take them inside, leave them at home where it’s cool and safe. Every single time.

Please update microchips, dog tags, secure gates and fences, contact your vet for anxiety meds for your dogs THIS WEEK, ...

Please update microchips, dog tags, secure gates and fences, contact your vet for anxiety meds for your dogs THIS WEEK, BEFORE WEDNESDAY! Fireworks are already going off, but they will start going off a lot Thursday, of course Friday (the 4th) and likely throughout the weekend.
Please think twice about taking your dogs to watch fireworks. Instead, set them up a safe, cozy spot at home, with music, the TV or some sort of noise to sound out the booms.
