Kansas City wins! What a way to start off the season and partnership with The Kansas City Chiefs Defensive Tackle, Derrick Nnadi!
Daphne is the first adoptable dog to be chosen for this season-long campaign to save lives and @dnnadi has pledged to pay for her adoption fee!

Daphne is a 5-year-old Pit Bull mix and is currently staying at our main shelter off of Raytown Road. She is always up for car rides, walks, and naps. Our volunteers say that she gives the best kisses and takes treats gently. If that was enough reason to bring this girl into your family, Daphne promises to cheer on the Chiefs with you and we hear her favorite number is 91!

For every Chiefs win this season, Derrick will be paying for the adoption fee of a featured dog in our shelter. Keep an eye on our social media pages to see which dog will be sponsored by Derrick next!

He’s a sweet, calm senior man who loves to go on leisurely walks (or rides in a wagon) around his neighborhood. To meet William, email us at Fostering@kcmo.org. And gooooooo Chiefs!

It’s #RedFriday in KC today and we’re all excited for a big season with our hometown team. Our dedicated team is busy today caring for all of the animals at our shelter and we love it when we see moments like this. Pippa is a sweet, red girl and the shelter life can be overwhelming for her. So our staff took a moment to sit and comfort her before she went back into her kennel. We’d love to find a home for Pippa today at our main shelter so come meet her on this Red Friday.
