Who?! What?! Where?! is this Kansas K-9 ResQ?
We are a group of dog lovers dedicated to making our little corner of the world a better place - by saving the life of one dog at a time.
We do not have a central location for you to meet the dogs currently in our foster care, because the dogs live in our personal homes with us. We make sure they receive the love, care, and training they need until we find them permanent homes in the Wichita, Kansas area.
WE DO NOT SELL DOGS.
WE DO NOT ADOPT OUT OF STATE.
A true dog lover adopts a pet into their lives and their homes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The number of dogs put to death every day is a national scandal,
a sad reflection of a chain of irresponsibility:
from puppy mills who produce too many dogs and sell them indiscriminately,
to pet owners who refuse to have their animals spayed or neutered,
tire of them and simply abandon them, or worse, abuse them.
YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
If you are an animal lover and are considering any charitable donations or gift giving,
please consider Kansas K-9 ResQ.
We are a 501 (c) 3 organization and all contributions are tax deductible.
We are an all-volunteer organization so all donations are used to provide medical care,
food, and maintenance for the homeless dogs in our area.
Our Contact Information page provides information for contacting us.
