The Aryan Molossus
Once a Warrior, Today a Loyal Companion and a Family-Protector
Should you ever decide that you need a big dog, with an imposing posture, which can look threatening and majestic at the same time, the Aryan Molossus is definitely one breed that you must take into consideration.
The Armant
The Egyptian Dog with a Lot of Love to Give
To some of you, the Armant is better known as the “Egyptian Sheepdog” and, just as the name suggests it, it was bred to be a herding dog. However, in ancient times, it was used mostly as a guard dog. This breed is originally from Egypt and named after the town of Armant. Its loyalty and agility are the two main characteristics which make this dog special.
The Atlas Terrier
The Small Dog With a Massive Dose of Energy
At a glimpse, the Atlas Terrier can be easily mistaken with the Jack Russell Terrier. However, there are some differences that may help you tell these two cousins apart. Before deciding to buy or adopt a dog of this breed, there are some things that you have to take into consideration. Unfortunately, this is quite a rare breed of dogs in our days.
Anglos-Francaises de Petite Venerie
It Is Impossible Not to Love Them
Anglos-Francaises de Petite Venerie are the smallest dogs in the Anglos-Francais category. However, the name „Petite”, meaning „small”, is not at all referring to the size of the dogs, but to the game they are after. Even if they've been around since the 16th century, today, these dogs are not easy to find. So if you have decided to adopt one, you can be sure that you will have a unique pet.

The Southwest Missouri Humane Society was incorporated in 1956 as a non-profit organization dedicated to the welfare of homeless animals. We are a traditional "open admission" Humane Society; we have no limits to the number of animals we will accept from private citizens and no charges for accepting them. As such, the Humane Society is the only shelter of its kind in this region, serving a population of 480,000 in a nine county area. Our primary purpose is to provide care and shelter for unwanted and homeless animals and to find good homes for as many healthy, adoptable animals as possible. While the majority of our adoptions are local, we also place animals with other shelters and with breed-specific rescue groups from across the nation. We have also supplied dogs to be trained as drug and bomb detection dogs.
In addition to serving private citizens, we serve the various small town governments in our region as an outsource for placement of the stray animals obtained through their animal control agencies. This is done on a fee basis at a loss to the Humane Society.
Like all humane societies and SPCA's, the Southwest Missouri Humane Society is independent from all other animal welfare organizations and is a privately funded non-profit organization, receiving no funding from any government or national humane organization source. Ninety-five percent of our funding comes either from adoption fees or local private contributions and ninety percent of expenditures go directly towards caring for the animals.
