Amazing shelter with really caring people working there. The owner was very caring and took pride in the animals. They train the animals very well and the animals are very well cared for. We got to meet as many dogs as we liked and after a couple days we found the dog best suited for our family. I am very grateful to this place. We have found our furry little friend Pepper Jack and he found his furrever home! ?

We love MARQ! They are friendly, helpful, patient, knowledgeable, and know a loy about a lot of things. We've adopted 3 dogs over the years from them and prefer working with them because they do know their stuff, are thorough with the care of the pets before adoption, and are thorough with the paperwork. Thank you MARQ & Erin for all that you do!!

I tried to "message" them a couple of times with no response. Guess no one is monitoring that anymore. Otherwise great experience!!

Went to adopt a pet. The dog I was interested in had been there 3 months due to age, breed, and preferences. She was feeling under the weather also. Wasn't sure how serious her issue was, like possibly needing a doctor. Discussed with the employee that I'd be heading to work and was not prepared at work or home for an ill pet. And employee led me to believe it would be best for the dog to stay. We discussed a good day to come back and was happy to know that I wouldn't have to wait too long since I could pick her up on the holiday. Bought her a harness and leash and small donation with the understanding I would soon check on her well being. Found out this pet had been adopted the very next day. I spoke to another employee and the one I had solely dealt with was not there. Went back on the agreed holiday day when the initial employee would be there. She didn't act like she recalled any of our interaction or conversation until she remembered my normal day off. Recalled nothing of me picking her up on the holiday day off. Also when making plans for pick up, making purchases, and fitting harness, there was absolutely no mention of a 'no holds' policy. So when I showed up a day early to pick her up if she was feeling better, and the doggie was already adopted out. I was blind sided and devastated. Thought there must be some mistake. I could have benefited from their 'no holds' policy knowledge when we were making plans for pick up.
This situation happened from Thursday afternoon to Sunday (Easter) morning. The time frame doesn't really matter though. Just added information so any readers realize it wasn't a great time span.

We had a really great experience adopting sweet Calliope from MARQ. She had all of her puppy shots and was spayed prior to coming home with us. The staff that we worked with were all very kind and informative. All of the dogs in their care at the shelter seemed very well loved and looked after. I have been SO impressed by the manners and skills that our puppy already knows. She is well socialized with people and other dogs. It's obvious to me that this organization works with all of their dogs to set them up for success in their new homes.

My niece tried to get info about what to do regarding a senior German Shephard she inherited when a loved one passed away that is getting aggressive and sick and previous owner never got him medical care. The lady came across as very judgemental that my niece hadn't done anything for the dog yet even though she'd already explained that she hasn't been in a financial position TO do anything and is actively trying to seek out a resolution, be it a rescue, or euthanasia if he can't be helped, etc.The lady was able to give my niece other possible places to call which is the only reason this isn't a one star review.

The person i just spoke to at Midwest Animal is very rude, I asked her about rescuing a starving kitten from our parking lot, now I can understand when she told me we are not in their area. The problem I have is when I tried to explain, I'm sorry but your google website does state you service kansas city and surrounding areas she called me a liar, hung up and then wouldn't answer the phone. So I took a picture so she can see it for herself. Very, very rude and bad attitude I hope she treats the animals better then she does humans. August 8, 2023 (edit) So I just noticed the person that answered the response put a note stating their staff is trained to hang up if they are being cursed at or yelled at. Sweetheart let me answer that part never once did I get loud on the phone, never once did I curse at your employee I actually run a business and understand how it is to get yelled and cursed at so before placing those words in your statement maybe reach out to the person and see how they react to you reaching out and then make a judgement call

We got my friends dog back and they are very friendly and helpful, they got him signed up for getting neutered for free, and if we needed help with anything to do with our pets not to hesitate to ask them for help ? ? ❤️
