Angels In Distress, Inc. located in the South Kansas City, Grandview, Belton, Raymore areas is an organization of caring individuals devoted to the rescue and re-homing of small purebred and mixed-breed dogs. We accept dogs in need from shelters, other rescuers, veterinarians, breeder releases, and individuals giving up their pets for a variety of reasons and house them in loving foster homes. Our "Angels in distress" are examined and treated by our veterinarians, vaccinated, de-wormed, heartworm tested, examined and treated for parasites, fecal checked, dental exam and teeth cleaned, spayed or neutered, treated with Frontline Plus, given maintenance heartworm preventative (Heartguard), bathed and groomed, and micro chipped before placement. They are also thoroughly temperament assessed. We believe that, somewhere, there is a home for every dog, but that we have a responsibility to place our dogs into homes that will best meet their needs, both physically and emotionally. We look for people with patience and loving hearts, and an understanding of the furbaby mind.
