My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Right now I may be described as a full-figured, Rubenesque lady , but all it will take is fewer calories and upping my exercise game, and Iandamp;#39;ll be svelte and willowy again in no time! Iandamp;#39;m Elena, and Iandamp;#39;m a beautiful, super friendly and loving andamp;quot;soccer ball aficionadoandamp;quot; who can brighten anyoneandamp;#39;s day with my smile and my sweet demeanor. Being a senior gal, you may think that Iandamp;#39;m all about sleeping and sleeping some more, but Iandamp;#39;m a andamp;quot;youthfulandamp;quot; senior! I love to play, I love to chase balls, and Iandamp;#39;m very interested in loving my humans as much as I can. I do want to meet any kids in the home to see if we are all on the same page. Same with dogs - I like dogs, and I do well with pups that kinda share my same energy and play style. andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;If you are lookinandamp;#39; for a dog that is as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside, then please come to the shelter and ask to meet me, ok? I am a one-of-a-kind girl who wants a chance to bring her special brand of love and sweetness into your life.andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Love from Elena

Please note that we operate by first come, first serve along with adoption approval. Wait times may vary depending on the time of week and day.

We are reserving Mondays and Tuesdays for appointments for members of the public who are immunocompromised or are still uncomfortable being in large crowds due to COVID-19.

If you have any questions about our adoptable pets, please call (913) 831-7722 or email adoptions@greatplainsspca.org. Our expert matchmakers look forward to finding you the perfect furry family member!

Adoption Requirements:
- Adopter must be 18 years of age or older.
- Adopters must complete a survey and present photo identification to meet any of our animals.
- For the safety and health of our animals, we do not ship pets.
- Pet adoption fees range from $60 to $350. Our adoption fees help to offset the cost of evaluation, housing, feeding and medical care for the thousands of animals needing our help. We do our best to keep our adoption prices reasonable while generating income to support our goal of caring for animals available for adoption until we can place them in a loving home. The adoption fee for each animal varies and is dependent on many factors including: age, size, behavior, medical condition, and public demand.
