Adopt a Unknown breed in Missouri

Unknown breed mixes are a wonderful slice of rescue dogs — DNA isn't destiny, and many of the best family companions defy easy labeling. Each is a unique blend of traits, often hardier than purebreds. What matters most is meeting the individual dog.

Missouri has a large rescue dog population, with active organizations in St. Louis, Kansas City, Springfield, and Columbia. The state is also a major source dog transport network. A rescued Missouri dog often comes from one of these high-volume programs.
