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, 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.
