🚨🚨FOUND DOG🚨🚨

Officers picked up this scared, intact male dog after he was found running in the 1100 block of Karney.

If you recognize him or know who his owners are, please have them call us at (913) 367-5530. If we are unavailable, please leave a voicemail and we will return your call during business hours tomorrow.

To reclaim him, owners will need to provide:
• Proof of ownership
• Proof of a current rabies vaccination

If he is not currently vaccinated, we will arrange for him to receive a rabies vaccine through a veterinarian. A $35 fee will be required at the time of reclaim.

Please share to help us reunite him with his family.

Update on the pup found near N 7th & Unity Street.

He has not been claimed yet. So if by Monday he has not had anyone come forward, we will be reaching out to our rescue partners. We’re pretty sure he’s either shepherd or malinois mix, as he’s all teeth🤣 but he is a good boy, a very young boy, that did not deserve to be dumped or abandoned.

We also want the person who did so, to know that he has worms, so if you have other animals in your home, you should deworm them immediately.

But anyways, please enjoy Scrappy having the time of his life playing with his rope! It’s literally all he wants to do and we love that for him!

🪿GOOSE GOES HOME🪿

I think I’m going to start asking y’all to wish our pups good luck before every meet and greet because Goose chose her people! At every other meet and greet, we had told folks that she needs slow introductions to let her come to you. Sometimes it would take her several minutes to get up the courage to say hello. But not today!

As soon as we rounded the corner into the yard, Goose started pulling on the leash and ran right up to everyone! So then of course I had to apologize for lying🤣 Goose made sure that I knew she wanted to go home with this family and she sure looks proud and smug about what a great family she chose!

We are beyond excited for our resident diva to finally go home and we cannot wait for her to have all kinds of fun and adventures with her girls. Happy tails Silly Goose!🤍

🪿Goose Got Groomed!🪿

We wanted to thank Higher Power Grooming for getting our Goosey Girl all trimmed up and pretty! She loves sunbathing in her outside kennel and gets quite dirty, so Emma gave her a nice overall trim and a 🫧scrub a dub🫧 and now she smells much better🤣 she looks so fluffy and lovely and she’s sporting a fun bandana her past foster sent back with her. Just in time for a meet and greet this morning! Wish her luck!

🥳913 Days of Waiting Are Over🥳

Do you remember Ruby? She came from a hoarding situation with her sisters Daisy and Delilah and her 7 puppies on November 22, 2023. And after all this time, Ruby has found her furever family!

Ruby was loved on by her fosters and raised to love cats, dogs and kiddos. But she had very severe anxiety being in a home full of other dogs, but no adopters would take the chance and time to get to know her. Until now. Ruby has been living with her new family as a foster to adopt situation for the last month and she has been absolutely thriving. She has 2 cat siblings that she’s trying to win over and two pawrents who adore her and take her everywhere!

We are so excited for this pretty girl and are so thankful to her family for giving her the chance to thrive. And a huge thank you to her foster family for being willing to keep her safe and out of the kennel for so long. You all are the reason we can save so many lives❤️

❤️💎HAPPY TAILS RUBY💎❤️

I found his family and he’ll go home tomorrow after he gets a shot😊

🚨Male Found At 10th & Laramie🚨

I have a very anxious boy awaiting reclaim. He was posted in the Atchison Chat group a few hours ago. He had been put inside someone’s fenced in backyard. We would love to find his people. If you recognize this boy, please call us at 913-367-5530 or send us a message.

In order to reclaim, we need proof of ownership such as photos and proof of an up-to-date rabies vaccine. If he is not up to date, it will be $35 for us to get him into the vet before he is returned. I am here until 5 PM. You can still call and leave a voicemail and I will get back to you tomorrow morning. Please share!

🩵Orion is Outta This World & Out of Here!🩵

ACO Bell picked this handsome but very skittish and scared boy up a few weeks ago and no one ever came forward to reclaim him. We posted his photos everywhere and were thrilled when a foster coordinator for Mo-Kan Border Collie Rescue reached out and wanted to help!

We know working breeds require just a bit of extra help when it comes to training and working through anxiety and stress, both of which Orion showed when it came to the leash, the car and new people.

And today, Orion went to the rescue’s foster and will have a relaxing rest of the night before being neutered tomorrow. We are so grateful for a new rescue partner in case we get more border collies and for all the adventures and love Orion is going to receive! Happy tails sweet boy!

🚨2 Pups Looking For New Homes🚨

Luna and Leo’s family is going through some hard times and they are unable to keep them. Negativity will not help these sweet souls find homes so please know it won’t be tolerated.

Luna is the brindle pit/boxer mix. She was born March of 2019. She is still very playful and likes to stay busy. She can be a bit aloof and definitely knows how to give herself space if she is overwhelmed. She helped raise the family’s two boys and has always done wonderfully. But if the kiddos are being a little too rambunctious, she’ll run off to play on her own. She does have anxiety when it comes to fireworks, storms, and gunshots and will hide in a dark corner or behind the couch and shake. Still a wonderful family girl.

Leo is the white lab/weimaraner mix and he was born August of 2019. He is very calm and relaxed. He is a very chill dog and can be a couch potato. He has also watched over his little boys. They can crawl all over him and he lays there and sleeps through it all. As the kiddos grew, they occasionally pulled on his ears or tail and he didn’t react. (This is not the go ahead to allow anyone to intentionally hurt him, this was just babies and their dog learning to co-exist and love one another). He is the perfect family dog.

Both dogs are house and kennel trained. They listen very well and know the commands “Sit”, “Shake”, and “Stay”. We let them outside and they stay in our yard (not fenced in) and come back to the door when done going potty. They will sit at the door when they need to go outside. Obviously with a new home they would need to learn, they may run off if a new family tries this without security in place.

They have done well with the dogs they have grown up with, but they need 🐢slow🐢introductions to new dogs. They have both done well around cats. They are both fixed but are behind on vaccines.

We would love to try to find a home where they can continue living together first. Losing their family is going to be hard and we’re hoping to insure they don’t lose one another. They always sleep curled up next to one another and love to play together.

If you are interested in meeting Luna and Leo, please call us at 913-367-5530 or send us a message with your interest and phone number and we will share it with the family. Please help us help them by sharing these two sweet pups far and wide.

Her family called and she will be going home tomorrow after she gets a shot! Thank you all!

🆘Small female found on 500 Block of U St.🆘

Callers said she was just walking down U Street in the middle of the road when they came outside and she came right up to them. Very sweet cuddlebug.

I am leaving for the night, however if this is your pup, please call and leave us a voicemail so we can reunite you first thing in the morning! Our phone is 913-367-5530. In order to reclaim, she must be up to date on her rabies vaccine or it will be $35 so we can get her up to date. You need to provide proof such as photos that she is yours. Please share so we can get her home!
