Zeus is an Alaskan Malamute with a huge heart, excellent temperment, but needs a home that can give him attention. This is hard for us to do, however, we do know that he is better off with someone who can take care of him better than we are able to. Linn County Center Point, IA 52213 MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-04-19-00423Summer (female)
I am Summer. I am a good example of what happens to a dog when my owner doesn't have tags on me and doesn't have me micro-chipped. I get lost and you never find me and I end up having to find a new family to live with. I am about two years old, I have been given a birthday but because it is unknown by the humans where I came from it is only a date I have been given. The humans think I may be a Papillon/Chihuahua mix but again, since I was just found wandering the streets that too is a guess. I am pretty tiny - I only weigh 12 pounds. I am a pretty little girl. I got the name Summer today since I couldn't tell anyone my name so I am still ... (Read More)learning that. Patriots has had me spayed, got me current on my shots and I will be micro-chipped before I go to my new home so I can't get lost again. I was pretty scared when I got to the shelter today after leaving the vet's office and a really nice lady took me home so I could get some extra loving. I will be living with Lora until I find a forever home. She will be able to tell you more about me after I am there for a little while. Right now she just knows I love being cuddled. UPDATE ON ME: This is Summer and I want to give you an update on me. I calmed down pretty quick in my foster home but unfortunately I don't like other small dogs and I attack them. There doesn't have to be a reason - I just don't like other dogs. I love people and am a real cuddle partner - just don't put me around other animals and we will get along just fine. I got returned to the shelter as I was trying to hurt the other dogs in my foster home. So please don't apply to adopt me if you have another dog. I have to be the only one in the home. I do promise to be a great dog if you don't have any other animals in your house. (Less) Patriots for Pets Rescue and Shelter Inc. 805 N. 40th Street Cerro Gordo County Clear Lake, IA 50428 MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-04-18-00318Ernie (male)
Ernie is a 2 year 4 month German Shorthair x English Pointer (according to the person who left him at the vet clinic I work at. Ernie was brought in with a fractured left rear leg when he was 4 months old. The owner intended to have Ernie euthanized so I adopted him and had his left tibia plated. Ernie runs very well and has no visible lameness. He is, however, a very high energy boy. I have a chronic health condition and I am not able to get him to the dog park for a 30-60 minute run on a daily basis which is what he really needs. I am moving to a one-story condo and that is not a good match for Ernie. Ernie is a sweet dog and was ... (Read More)raised with my 2 cats. He does chase them and then sniffs noses when he catches up to them. He has been around other dogs since he was a puppy - both at the dog park and at his 'doggie cousins'' houses. He has been around children ages 4+. He seems to be a little submissive around men. Ernie does have some negative attributes which will need to be worked with. I presume most are due to too much energy/too little exercise and mental stimulation. Concerns include: Ernie dribbles urine when he has a full bladder and gets excited. He chews on pillows, blankets, towels etc. and can't have them in his kennel (yes he is kennel trained). If unsupervised, he will chew on furniture and pillows. If left unsupervised in a fenced-in yard, he will dig (and point squirrels...silly boy). He also seems a little nervous with loud claps of thunder. Ernie is a lovable boy and I will miss him but he does not belong in a small condo without regular daily exercise. I am hoping to rehome him with a family who can provide him with a great home and lots of exercise. Thanks! (Less) Polk County Ankeny, IA MAP IT!

Meet Geppetto, He is 3 years old,microchipped, UTD on shots a and Neutered. This wonderful boy loves to snuggle, and play fetch. He also enjoys swimming, treats, agility and hide and go seek under the blankies. He tends to be more clingy with men, but bonds very closley with his alpha man or woman. He has never had any issues with childeren or other animals but like in any new interaction cvaution should be used. He is house broken and loves to please. He is being placed up for adoption due to my emergency move out to end an abusive situation. I would love nothing more in this world than to find him a temporary foster home until I can get ... (Read More)back on my feet, becuase I couldnt take him with me to the new place I am living at but do not want to loose him forever. I understand Petto may have to go to a forever home and I may not be able to get him back. This breaks my heart so I am looking to find him the perfect fit. I am most unwilling to take him to a shelter where he will just be put down. He is a good boy, who deserves a long, spoiled, love fulled life. I want the best for my dog and this is one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. I will require a home visit and references. I will do a background check to ensure no dog agressive or irresponsible people end up with him. He is truly a treasure and I would love to be able to visit him in his new home . please contact me for more info! (Less) Polk County Des Moines, IA 50313 MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-04-14-00200Lambert (male)
Lambert was surrendered to a shelter when he was 8 weeks old. For some unknown reason the other shelter was unable to find him a home. He sat in the other shelter for over 2 years. He was transferred to us about a week ago and we think it is time for this young man to find a REAL home. The shelter is no place for a dog for this length of time. He lacks socialization and will require time to get accustomed to a home environment. We highly doubt he will ever be trainable for hunting.

I love everyone and mind as good as I can for still being a baby. I am a boxer/pit mix and want nothing more than my own family to love, a warm place to sleep and a face to kiss on a regular basis. I didn't do anything wrong - I didn't ask for irresponsible owners. I don't go potty in the house, I don't bark very much and I eat all of my food when you give it to me.

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-04-10-00188Rocco (male)
Hi! My name is Rocco. I'm an extremely handsome purebred Miniature Pinscher. I have phenomenal muscle tone and almost no body fat! I like walks around the neighborhood, cuddles under the covers and buttered toast for breakfast. I have a slight obsession with hoarding dirty socks and eating the crotches out of panties, jeans, shorts'| you get the picture So if you leave your garments laying about, they're fair game. I can sit, jump and spin on command... well, maybe if you have tasty treat for me. I'm known around my neighborhood as the hilarious little black dog that barks and chases everyone back and forth as they pass by my ... (Read More)fence'| what!?!?! I'm a terrier, it's in my DNA-jeez! But hey, I'm quite the lover! Just ask my mail carrier! I've won over her heart so much that she brings me treats even when I'm not home! Anyway, I've been doing a great deal of reflection lately and it has come to my attention that it's time for me to find a new home. I'm getting up there in the years and let's just say I'm not as patient as I used to be. Add to that, these uprights threw this little girl into the mix 3 years ago'| and she is SOOOO annoyingly cute! Well, at least they think she's cute anyway. Frankly, I'm tired of hearing, 'Aiyana is so cute'| , Aiyana is so smart'| , Aiyana this'| Aiyana that'| blah, blah, blah' Puke! Ugh'| add to that and she has NO concept of 'personal space'. So yeah, I wanna bite the little shit sometimes. I admit it'| there, I said it. I'm a dog and sometimes I want to bite and it's getting harder and harder to fight the urge. I take full responsibility. I own it. It's not me - it's her. It's just better for me to move on. Did I mention I'm a lover, I love lots and lots of attention and have even earned the distinguished 'Velcro Dog' title and am very well known in those circles. SO! If you don't live with any rug rats and want some loving companionship, I've got a good 42 dog years left in me to love you up!! (Less) Polk County Des Moines, IA MAP IT!

We would like you to meet Maxx. He is about six years old and in typical Boxer fashion he loves people.

He is reported to not be very friendly with other dogs. We will start working on that and see if we can get him through it. Ideally, he would be great in a single dog environment. He is neutered, current on his shots and will be micro-chipped prior to adoption. He is a nice looking boy who needs to find his forever home.

This animal is available to licensed rescue groups only. Please do not enquire unless with a licensed rescue group. I am with Patriots for Pets Rescue and Shelter Inc. in Clear Lake, Iowa. This afternoon we got a call to help with a little bit of an unusual situation. The City of Corwith (Iowa) demanded that these two beauties be removed from the City within 5 days due to the fact that one of them jumped the fence and tore the leg of the pant off of the neighbor. OK - not cool to do - but still - five days isn't much time to get these guys placed. The dog did not bite the individual so does not have a bite history. We agreed to help if we could After meeting them several of our board members have decided the best thing to do is to contact the Rescue ... (Read More)organizations and see if they can help with these two boys. We are an all breed rescue with limited resources for dogs this size which were not socialized properly. They are about a year and a half old, they are brothers, and unfortunately they have had little to no socialization. They are good with their own family, including kids, but the larger of the two boys is not real friendly with strangers. We have so many people that adopt who have children and we just aren't comfortable with their current lack of socialization to try and adopt them. We think breed rescue is what is best for them. We have brought their shots current but they will both require neutering. This is one of the boys - he is the smaller of the two and he is the more submissive of the two boys.

She has gotten along with smaller dogs but I believe she is greatly fearful of bigger dogs and does become aggressive with them when she sees them At first until she warms up-I believe out of fear. Since we pulled her, she has travelled with us to hotels and is very loving with all strangers. She has slept with my daughter and travels fantastic in a car. We cannot keep Rose because she becomes obsessed with my cats. We have an acreage with about 20 rescued cats and she becomes deaf to all when she sees a cat. Rose is only about 35-40 lbs an so not a very big dog. She is a mutt of mutts and we believe she is boxer/lab plus a dash of pitt/terrier? She would be best in a home with adults, no cats and children older than 8 years old Absolutely no cats but yes we can try her with smaller dogs. Please help us give Rose a forever home and help her go from almost killed to a dream life. Right now she is at the best DOGGY DAY CARE--Half-Moon Kennels--but she can't stay there for ever because my funds are limited. Please help us help Rose. I can drive Rose anywhere in the country where she can find a great forever home. Please note that All dogs I adopt out first go for 2 week trial period. Goal is to see if it's a good match for Dog-human. Also dog can always come back to me if it does not work out. (Less) Johnson County iowa city, IA 52240 MAP IT!

NEGLECT SHOULD BE A SERIOUS CRIME IN IOWA This is Mitch and to say he was close to dying due to starvation would be an understatement. You can count every rib, you can feel every vertebrae and yet all he wants to do is play with you, cuddle with you and give you kisses. Right now those things are a close second to eating - he will eat anything he can get in his mouth that is edible. He has stolen the heart of everyone in the building with his incredible spirit. It is absolutely incredible that he doesn't hate the human race. We were told he is a Rottweiler mix. He is just over a year old. It is estimated that right now he is about ... (Read More)40 pounds underweight based upon his height and weight right now. No one can look at these pictures and not see neglect - if you see a well cared for animal you are probably watching the wrong page. If you can justify that anyone can do this to an animal you are really on the wrong page. There is never any excuse to let an animal get into this condition. We can assure you that we will work very hard to get weight on this young man in a healthy fashion and we will do our best to keep his loving spirit up while we are doing so. Anyone coming into the building will be able to share treats with this guy as there is a bucket of special high calorie treats just for him hanging on his kennel. He may be down but Mitch is certainly not out - he is one of the most loveable kids we have here with us - we can guarantee lots of puppy kisses if you come to visit.

He always seems to be an optimist and in a happy mood and one of the most affectionate and sweetest dogs we've ever met! He does great with other dogs and enjoys doggie playtime and socializing but if people are around, he doesn't show much interest in his canine friends and is more concerned in his human friend and getting attention, affection, cuddles from his two-legged buddies. His weight is 77lbs., so this big boy is perfect for snuggling your whole body into just like a body pillow while watching some late night movies or snoozing the night away'|no need for a memory mattress! He adores all people and kids and is just one big teddy bear. He is very friendly, outgoing and social with all and wants to meet and greet everyone and be their best friend. He is eager to please and should be easy to train. King is also playful and he's not one to sit on the sidelines while everyone else is having all the fun so he would make a great best friend for kids, a playmate for another playful dog and the perfect companion for a jogger or active person. He'll be the happiest when he is joining his family in family activities, he is a family dog and family will be the most important thing in his life.

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-02-23-00386Gabe (male)
Gabe came to us because he was being a 'terrier' He came from a family that loved him but gave him no structure or direction. The result of this was that he took over the house at 6mo He has been with the rescue for less than a week and he is been a very good boy, he loves to play and is very very smart. I have not had him around other animals at this time. Gabe needs a family that knows how to work with him and is willing to give him the training time. He's not a huggy-squeezy type of pooch. I was told he shouldn't be with children but I think if worked with properly he would be ok. Stylin' Pooch Dog Rescue 2789 Colorado Ave Humboldt County Gilmore City, IA 50541 MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-02-23-00244JoJo (female)
JoJo is a very sweet, highly trained obedient dog but does not do well with small dogs and small children. She will bully and nip small dogs and she gets nervous around small children and growls at them. She is submissive/aggressive. I adopted her 4 years ago and was told she was abused, which goes along with her 'eager to please' disposition and she will run and hide if there is a loud sound. She will beg to come inside if the garbage truck or snow plow drives by. She tries to dominate our older dog-growling at her when she is eating, nipping at her if she is barking and she recently bit her in the face. She does really well with ... (Read More)larger dogs and enjoys running and playing with them. She loves to 'work' and does well on a farm or a horse barn (although she has been kicked from a horse because she would not stop biting and snapping at her heels)but she is a quick study and learned to just watch us work the horses from the gate. If she is not exercised she will gain weight quickly. She walks without a lead and listens wonderfully on hikes. She will stop from chasing a squirrel when called by her name. I cannot rave enough about her and how loving she is and how much my older children love her-but she has to be segregated from our family because we have an 18 month old that I do not trust her to be around without constant supervision and she has growled at our 6 year old. She is very protective of her area and of our home. She would do wonderfully with a family that has older children or no children at all-would be very happy being the main dog in a single person's life as well! We love JoJo very much and want her to have a happy secure life. I cannot express enough how much we care for her and want her to be happy. (Less) Fremont County Hamburg, IA MAP IT!

Gypsy is now ready for adoption. This girl came from Texas and was scheduled to be euthanized along with her seven puppies which were only a few days old. We brought her and the babies back with us. She did an excellent job taking care of her babies and she has come a long way. She is still a little shy but warms up with slow and steady attention. She has now been spayed, is up to date on all of her shots and is micro-chipped. This girl has been through hell - she deserves a good and loving home where she can be a member of the family. We have not had any problems with her going to the bathroom inside but while she was at Debbie's house ... (Read More)with the puppies and since she has come back to the kennel. She needs LOVE.

Nicca will be euthanized soon if we cannot find her a compatible home. Her previous owner kept her locked in a small closet and was only let out once a day to eat, drink, and potty. She is house trained now, and knows basic commands. She will be euthanized due to an incident involving a child. She did not attack the child, but was scared by the child and protected her self by nipping at him, breaking the skin and drawing blood. When children aren't around, she is the perfect dog. She gives kisses, loves to cuddle, plays with her toys, and loves running outside. Nicca is a good dog and deserves a home that fits her needs. Hardin County Iowa falls, IA MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-01-10-00376Pualie (male)
POOR PAULIE HIS ADOPTER BACKED OUT BECAUSE TRANSPORT WAS LATE THEN HE WAS ATTACKED BY ANOTHER DOG! Paulie is an adorable 3 yr old Shepherd / Pit Bull who is just stunning in his solid sleek dark golden bronze coat. He is 37lbs but is underweight. He was starved and neglected. He was picked up as a stray in Miami with physical signs of abuse and we are suspecting that hw was used as a bait dog. But he is still super sweet, very friendly and outgoing without being hyper. He is easy going, submissive and a lover-boy. He is a regular social butterfly and loves to meet and greet everyone. Wal-Mart should hire him as their greeter...he would be ... (Read More)their best employee! He adores people, kids and will play with anyone'|kids, adults and would be great joining family activities. He is very smart and eager to please, probably from his German Shepherd heritage. He's great with other dogs, and loves doggie playtime! He was very urgent in Miami Dade and was on the Code Red List because he is in the URI section with a doggie cold where potential adopters never really go and he wouldn't be adopted just because no one would get to see what an awesome boy he really is. He came up on an Emergency Saving Death Row Dogs Transport and he did have an adopter waiting for him, he was actually one of the first dogs to be pre-adopted on that transport. But the day of the transport the weather was horrible and roads were closed and the transport was six hours late; and the adopter backed out on Paulie '|. So now he sits in a concrete kennel as his home, just because Mother Nature wasn't on his side that day. He was the only dog that the adopter backed out on because of the bad weather, bad roads and late arrival of the transport van. And one reason Paulie might not have been adopted yet is because for three weeks prior to his arrival he was marked as adoption pending so anyone that was interested in him thought he was already adopted and those same people won't came back to his web description looking for him....POOR PAULIE! But his luck gets even worse! Another dogs climbed the kennel wiring during the night and got into Paulie's kennel and beat poor Paulie up. Believe or not, the other dog was not a Pit he was a Lab Mix'|so much for the toughness and meaness of Pitbulls. This Lab that attacked Paulie didn't even have one bite mark or scratch on him. Paulie's face was almost unrecognizable and all swollen up, he couldn't even open his eyes because they were soo swollen and matted with blood and drainage. The photo of Paulie hurt was take a couple days after the attack, so just imagine how bad it was the day of. We are praying that Paulie's luck turns around, he has had a bad 3 years so far and he really deserves to finally have some love in his life'|something he's only dreamed of. He would be a great member to any family. This sweetie pie has a big heart bursting at the seams with love to give a family. He will be a devoted, loving, loyal family member that will never let you down'|even if you're late. $70 each adoption fee includes neutering, vaccinations, microchip, de-fleaing & de-worming and heartworm test. We offer a 3 week money back (less $10 + $5 if paid on web with pre-payment/deposit) or even trade on another pet (dog for dog / cat for cat).

Clyde is a very well behaved dog. We just had a child a little over a year ago. Up until recently the interaction between the two has been fine. Our son recentlly cornered Clyde and grabbed his face making Clyde react by growling and yelping. The scuffle knocked our son over and he ended up getting hurt.

Banner is a beautiful and loving dog with a lot of potential. I am sure that in the hands of the right owner she will be a fabulous dog! Banner has a lot of energy. She loves to run, play fetch, swim, hike, roll around in anything, play tug, etc. Unfortunately, without proper outlets this energy manifests itself in a lot of nervous energy and severe separation anxiety. This fearful/anxious energy also means she has very poor social skills and trouble with other dogs. Banner is fairly dominant as well and this means she has trouble sharing toys with other dogs, or with children and she is protective of me. When toys are not involved, the ... (Read More)concern with Banner and kids is that she can be a bit of a bull in a china shop and plow through anything and everything when she has her focus on something. After 5 years of trying, it is just time to admit that Banner and I are not the right match for each other. Working full time, being out of the house sometimes 9-10 hours a day, and having an 8 month old that takes up all my time and attention now, I'm just not able to provide her with the exercise, calm-assertive leadership or consistency that she needs. I will miss my Banner-boo, but I know that if I can find the right setting it will be so much better for her.

Carney came to PAWS Humane Society, located in Charles City, Iowa this past June. Carney is a pit bull mix that is estimated to be around 1 year old. Carney has a beautiful tan coat, beautiful eyes, and a mouth that always looks like he is smiling! Due to the stress of living in a shelter and being in a kennel...Carney severely drools.

| PIease Read Before Adopting a Dog in Iowa | |||||||||
Dogs can make good pets in Iowa if they match your IifestyIe. Dogs have a reputation for being "man's best friend" for excellent reasons. Dogs are wonderful companions. Many breeds, in addition to being affectionate, devoted members of the family, are useful working dogs and guardians. Most dogs form tight bonds with their humans, and need to be cared for like the valuable family members they are. But sadly, some owners do not live up to the responsibility and involvement it takes to properly care for a dog throughout its life. Dogs can become the victims of neglect or active abuse. Some dogs receive tender, attentive care from their owners, but no longer have a home after their owner passes away or experiences a major life event that makes him unable to keep his dog. There are many more dogs than there are homes for dogs, and dogs that are not spayed or neutered can accidentally produce large numbers of puppies, exacerbating overpopulation. For this reason, three to four million dogs, many of them perfectly healthy and wonderful animals, are euthanized in the U.S. each year. Many people get excited about owning a new dog, decide to get a puppy, and then pick one out at a pet shop or visit a breeder with a new litter. However, there are so many wonderful, friendly dogs in need of adoption, including puppies and purebreds. Some of these dogs might even be a better fit for a family than a new puppy; for instance, some adult dogs in need of adoption are already housebroken and obedience trained. Adoption is typically much less expensive than purchasing a dog. People who adopt dogs find the experience extremely rewarding, bond very closely with their dogs, and have the added satisfaction of knowing that one less animal has to be euthanized. If your family is ready for a canine companion, please consider adopting a dog! Rescue Me! - HeIpingAnimaIs in Need. |  | ||||||||
