  • Kansas City Dog Bite Help Through Animal Control

    If you've been injured in a dog bite in Kansas City, or if you want to prevent a Kansas City dog attack, Animal Control can help.

    They accept calls abut threatening animals and try to make sure neighborhoods stay safe from nuisances.

    If you need to report a dangerous dog in Kansas City, you can call the Police Emergency Communication Center at 913-596-3000 or 911 at night, on weekends, or on holidays.

    As part of the Kansas City police force, Animal Control will investigate the problem and even remove the animal if needed.

    When you call, be prepared to give a description of the animal(s) causing the problem, a description of the problem, and your name, address and phone number. If you have the owner's name and address too, that can help make Animal Control's job easier.
