Smokey could use a repost! ❤️🐾

After Smokey was shot and needed to have one of her legs amputated, so many of you helped us raise funds for her care. We’re all baffled that this sweet girl still hasn’t found her person—even after both adoption specials. Let’s help her get another chance to be seen!

Smokey is a 4-year-old girl with three legs and a whole lot of love to give. She’s gentle, affectionate, and seems to make a friend everywhere she goes. She has lived with other dogs before and is ready to bring all that sweetness to a forever home.

She’s proof that you don’t need four legs to leave a huge paw print on someone’s heart. 🐾

Smokey is spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, and ready to meet her family. Please share her story and help us get her in front of the person who’s been waiting for a girl just like her!

🚨 Pet Resource Center of Kansas City urgently needs our help! 🚨

Their Pet Food Pantry is almost completely out of cat and kitten food. The bin that is normally stuffed full is now down to its final few bags—and local families are counting on PRCKC to help keep their beloved pets fed and at home where they belong. 🐱❤️

For a family already struggling financially, one donated bag of food can mean one less impossible decision to make. It can mean a full bowl for the cat they love and the comfort of knowing they won’t have to surrender a family member simply because times are difficult.

If you’re able, please consider donating a bag of dry cat or kitten food. No donation is too small, and every single bag will make a meaningful difference.

Donations can also be dropped off Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at:

Pet Resource Center of Kansas City
5829 Troost Ave.
Kansas City, MO

If you can’t donate right now, please share this post. Together, we can fill this pantry back up, keep pets fed and help families stay together. 🐾

189 pets found their people this weekend! 🥹💙🐾

Congratulations to KC Pet Project on an incredible KC Mega Match adoption event! Thanks to this amazing community and Petco Love, 76 dogs and 113 cats found loving homes—for 189 adoptions total!

That kind of success takes a whole lot of heart and hard work. Thank you to every KC Pet Project employee and volunteer who helped make this weekend happen, and to everyone who adopted, shared a post, spread the word, or encouraged someone to meet their new best friend.

I love seeing all these happy adoption photos. Congratulations to the pets and families starting their next chapter together! 💙🐾

🎁🐾 A little extra comfort for shelter dogs this holiday season!

For the past five years, On A Mission KC has donated nearly 15,000 mats designed to fit perfectly on Kuranda beds. We’re proud of this tradition and would love to continue it.

This holiday season, we’ll donate 1,000 of these mats to rural animal shelters. The first 1,000 are on us!

Please nominate your favorite rural shelter in the comments, and we’ll start a list. If helping us provide more than 1,000 mats would be meaningful to you, please comment below. We’ll start a fundraising campaign very soon so we can keep this tradition going and bring comfort to even more shelter dogs. ❤️

* Picture is one of the greatest shelter dogs I’ve ever had the privilege of assisting. He’s found his way to heaven, but he will never be forgotten. We love you, Bubba. ❤️

Yesterday, I told you about Lyle—the dog who stopped me in my tracks at the shelter. He looked so defeated, and I wondered if he’d given up. But it took just a little time for him to trust me, and soon I was getting the sweetest, sloppiest kiss.

Now I want you to know the Lyle I got to meet outside the shelter: a happy, affectionate, playful 5-year-old Shepherd mix who loves people and is so easy to love. 💛

Lyle is a champion cuddler, a big fan of belly rubs, and always ready to play with a squeaky toy. He knows “sit,” settles down easily, and even knows to lie down when you’re eating or need to get something done. He showed signs of having been house-trained, with no accidents in the house and a habit of heading to the door after walks. He’s a little enthusiastic on leash at first, but settles into the walk.

He plays gently, though he can get a little mouthy by accident, and he enjoys tearing up stuffed toys without eating the stuffing. He also likes chasing squirrels, so we don’t know how he’d do with cats. He was separated from the cat in our home, and while he could smell her, he didn’t seem interested in the room she was in. Lyle seems gentle and easygoing, but his experience with children hasn’t been confirmed.

We don’t know what Lyle’s life was like before he came to KC Pet Project. What we do know is that he’s a sweet, loving boy who deserves to be someone’s family—not just a dog waiting behind a kennel door.

Lyle is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccinations. Please help us find this special boy the forever home he deserves. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will make you laugh, keep you company, and happily accept all the belly rubs you can give, please consider meeting Lyle. And if you can’t adopt, please share his story. 🏡🐾

I was at the shelter today working on a couple of emergency cases. As I was leaving, I walked past a kennel—and Lyle stopped me in my tracks. 💔

He looked so defeated, and I could see the sadness in his eyes. The staff let me spend a little time with him, and it took just 30 seconds for him to trust me. Another 30 seconds later, I got a big, sloppy kiss. ❤️

That’s why I try never to judge a dog by what I first see in a kennel. Sometimes all it takes is a little patience and kindness for their sweet personality to shine through. Dogs like Lyle will always hold a special place in my heart.

The staff at KC Pet Project are gathering his information, and tomorrow we’ll share Lyle’s complete story and let you know how you can help him find the forever home he deserves.

For tonight, please keep Lyle in your thoughts and send him some prayers and good vibes. And when we share his story tomorrow, if you’d be willing to share it too, it would mean the world to us. Every share could help the right person find him.

Thank you, KC Pet Project, for reminding Lyle that his life matters and that things can get better. We appreciate all that you do! 

Sweet dreams, Lyle. You’re not forgotten. 🐾❤️

Meet Jackson. ❤️

He has a long road ahead. One of his legs is so badly injured that it needs to be amputated, and his other leg is broken. Jackson needs surgery and medical care—and then a quiet, loving place where he can recover.

In the video, you can see what a sweet boy he is. He leans in for affection and soaks up every bit of love. He deserves to heal somewhere warm and safe, with a foster family by his side, instead of spending this difficult recovery in the animal shelter.

Please consider donating to help KC Pet Project provide the care Jackson needs. And if you can open your home to a medical foster, please apply. Sharing his story can help us reach the person who can give him a soft place to land. 🐾

Every time I walk through a shelter, I find myself whispering an apology to the dogs I meet.

I’m sorry someone let you down.
I’m sorry you were left behind.
I’m sorry you have to wait day after day, hoping someone will stop, look into your eyes, and see the incredible soul I see. 💔

And then I make them a promise.

I promise I’ll keep showing up.
I’ll keep sharing their faces and telling their stories.
I’ll keep fighting for the dogs who are overlooked, forgotten, or simply waiting for someone to choose them.

I can’t promise every ending will come quickly. But I can promise they won’t be forgotten—not while I have a voice to use and a story to share. 🐾

If you’ve been thinking about welcoming a pet into your family, please consider adoption. Somewhere in a shelter, a dog is waiting for a chance to become part of your story. ❤️

And if you’re able, a gift to On A Mission KC helps us keep advocating for shelter dogs and supporting the shelters and people who care for them. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps carry this mission forward.

Let’s help keep their promises.
