Kansas City Area Animal Rescue Groups There are many people in our area who are dedicated to helping a particular breed of dog or cat or other types of critters. Our humane society and many other area shelters network with these groups in order to be able to help more of the animals who come through our doors. Most of these people foster animals in their homes until they can find them a new home. Contact them to adopt a pet or to learn more about a particular breed or type of pet. • Dog Breed Rescue Groups (listed by breed) Dog Rescue Groups These rescue groups have dogs available for adoption, pure breeds and mixed. Many are in foster homes and photos are posted on their web sites. For a specific breed also check the breed list below.
