Megan's Paws & Claws - City of Smithville, Missouri Dog Pound Megan's Paws & Claws is a municipal dog pound run by the City of Smithville, MO. Megan's Paws & Claws is the local dog pound for the City of Smithville.

We are are No-Kill facility and we strive to keep the dogs in our pound as comfortable and healthy as possible while in our care before being reunited or adopted with their owners. We do not have cats at our pound and we do not take owner surrenders. If you find a stray dog please call the dispatch line at 816-858-3521 and the Smithville Police will attempt to find it and bring it to the pound. The owner will have 10 days to claim the dog before it will be vetted and placed up for adoption. If you're interested in meeting our adoptable dogs, please call 816-532-0577. Adoption fee is $200.00 which includes spay/neuter, heartworm test, microchip and vaccinations on all dogs up for adoption. No adoptable dog leaves without being properly vetted and altered. The dogs and staff truly appreciate everything this community does. The pound wouldn't be what it is today without the support of the Smithville community!

💙 HOW HAS THIS GOOFY BOY NOT HAD A SINGLE INQUIRY?! 💙

Seriously, Jimmy hasn't had ONE person ask to meet him, and we just can't figure out why!

Jimmy is the sweetest, goofiest boy who absolutely LOVES people! He's full of personality, loves playing with toys, and thinks a good game of keep-away is the greatest invention ever. 😂

Jimmy did great meeting a laid-back female dog who didn't react to his playful antics! We're hoping to introduce him to a male dog soon to see how he does.

He does resource guard his meals, meaning he needs his own space to eat without being disturbed. It's something we're aware of and continue to work on!

Jimmy has done great with children! However, because of his resource guarding, we recommend a home with older children who understand boundaries. No toddlers or little ones who might accidentally bother him during mealtime.

He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to find his forever family!

Jimmy isn't asking for much. Just someone to love him, play with him, respect his space at mealtime, and appreciate his goofy personality. 💙

Message us right here or call 816-532-0070 to set up a time to meet him!

Please share Jimmy! Somewhere out there is a family missing out on one heck of a fun, lovable dog, and Jimmy is patiently waiting for them to find him. 🐾💙

I was at Dogtoberfest and made lots of connections and saw so many pups needing homes! This cutie was one in particular who was a total ham for the camera! He is with Adopt Rescue Foster and his name is Gryffindor! He is a 10 month old lab mix who posed perfectly for his photoshoot! Such a good boy! He loves kids, cats and dogs! He is having trouble finding a home due to him being a black dog. I know we have people here who love black dogs, so we told them we would share his photos to help get him a home! We don't have any further information, so you'll need to click on the tag above and reach out to the rescue directly. We are sharing only!

I got to visit with two of Megan's Alum today! First was C**t who stopped by to visit when his parents dropped off some donations. Unfortunately all of those photos are blurry! He was so happy with his husky brother!

Then we scheduled a visit with Frank the Tank's family over the lunch hour. He was so happy to see almost everyone who saved his life almost 2 years ago. Today was a great day to visit with these two boys and to see how happy they are in their forever homes! 💙💙💙
