KANSAS CITY — Spread the word! Kansas City, Mo., residents who live in the 64130 and 64132 ZIP codes have a unique opportunity to receive free pet licensing, vaccinations and spay/neuter surgeries for their pet pit bulls and pit bull mixes now through September at participating vets.
Licensing your pet pit bulls will ensure that you are notified if your pet is ever impounded. Through the City`s ‘Free Ride Home Program,’ animal control officers also will give your pet one free ride home per year if it is found lost wearing a City pet license! No ticket will be issued for licensed pets that run at large. In addition, no shelter fees will be assessed if the owner is home when the pet is returned; half fees will be assessed if the owner cannot be located, and the pet is reclaimed at the shelter.
To participate in the program, residents living in the 64130 and 64132 ZIP codes must visit a participating veterinarian, which include the following:
