Fort Leavenworth Stray Facility

Animal shelter in Fort Leavenworth, KS

Our facility is overseen by FMWR but is all volunteer staffed. We pride ourselves on the level of dedication as we are there for the love of the pets. Our volunteer duties range from walking dogs to cleaning kennels to volunteer recruitment and coordination.

We are proud to say we do not euthanize for need of space. We are a low-kill facility in that we minimize it to medical issues and extreme behavior issues. We have treated dogs for heartworm and other treatable medical issues to make them adoptable; we do not base our decisions on a pre-set rule but a guideline that allows us to handle every pet on a case-by-case basis.

Shelter FAQs

We serve the Fort Leavenworth, Kansas community. We have a small facility and can only accept strays found on post by Military Police and pets relinquished by post residents. But we are happy to adopt to anyone who qualifies! Military affiliation is not required!

Our mission is to provide a safe and healthy environment for pets while working to ensure their placement into forever homes.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process takes about 24 hours, unless prior arrangements have been made. Each applicant is required to submit two personal references and one veterinarian reference (if first time pet owner that is waived). Please email us for the adoption application form.

We also ask that an adopter's dog and the adoptable dog meet each other prior to finalizing the adoption. This is to protect you and both the dogs. We have an exercise yard and are happy to introduce them there while monitoring closely.

Adoption of multiple pets may qualify for an adoption fee discount if the fee is not already reduced.
