Animal rescue in Leavenworth, KS

We are Leavenworth Animal Welfare Society (LAWS).
We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, we get no funding from any city or government body. We do not have a shelter, rather, we have always been a net work of licensed foster homes that pull pets from the animal control, most have come from dire circumstances. We vet them, rehab them, train them and adopt the pets out when they are ready.
