Protect. Advocate. Legislate.

Since 1990, we have been the ONLY Missouri organization advocating for animal welfare at the State Capitol. We primarily focus on passing legislation to protect companion animals, farmed animals, and wildlife from abuse, neglect, and inhumane exploitation. We also assist with the enforcement of current animal laws.

Congratulations to Russell and his family!
Russell’s journey began at the APA Adoption Center in Brentwood. Russell is known for his boundless friendliness and big heart. He truly loves everyone he meets, so much so that it’s common for strangers in the community to greet him by name as they pass by.
We are proud to see Russell represent not only the Alliance, but also the countless rescue animals and dogs just like him and are still waiting for their chance. His story is a reminder of the life-changing impact of adoption and the incredible bonds that form when animals are given the love they deserve.

We send our deepest thanks to Pfrankie, our 2025 Face of the Alliance, for his year of exemplary service. Pfrankie has been hard at work preparing Russell for office, overseeing a smooth transition of power and sharing invaluable wisdom on constituent relations, blanket allocation, and the importance of always saying “yes” to treats.
