Story
Miles is a great pup. We brought him home from the Scott County Pet Shelter in the fall of 2024 where he was kept after being found tied up and abandoned. He was a bit under weight and suffering from the loud and crowded conditions but doubled in weight quickly. He is eager to please and is food driven. He trains very well and adapts to routines quickly. He has basic commands like sit, down, stay, and come. He loves tug and fetch and is starting to catch a frisbee. He is well potty trained and we keep him home during the work days with no kennel required at all. He loves other dogs and people and is always looking for more attention and rubs. We want the best home for him and are struggling to provide for him. We have a kennel, beds and mats, toys, bowls, leashes etc and will be glad to give them to his new family. Thank you for reading!

Story
Rusty is 8 years old. He is very chill in some ways. His hobbies include sleeping and laying in the grass outside. He absolutely loves snow and will bulldoze through it at top speed. He is an anxious little guy in other ways however. He is mostly well controlled on medication. He will need a patient and experienced family (maybe no kids). Doesn't want to cuddle much or be around us. He does protect me (one of two moms) and get activated by people coming and going. Has not been around other dogs/cats here (barks at neighborhood dogs). Reacts strongly to noises outside/people walking by. He came to our family 2 years ago in pretty rough shape - severe fleas, underweight, accidents. We have provided a good home for him, but he is not thriving with our young, busy family. We meet his basic needs and he tolerates us in return. He is healthy and vetted. On Rachael Ray small bites food. Completely house trained. Low exercise needs. Kennels well (I WFH so it's limited).

Peanut is a tiny package of love and motion! This itty bitty guy loves to be held and wants to be in on ALL the action.

Still, he is giving life his all, and he will be a delightful companion for the family who chooses this happy, wiggly, active little guy. Peanut is fun to be with, curious, and happy. Meet him today to bring his joyful nature right into your life, too! Adopters must agree to neuter Peanut when age appropriate.

Story
Meet Tony! This handsome older pup came to Iowa from an overwhelmed shelter in Oklahoma. Now he is neutered and up to date on all vaccinations, and very reliably crate trained! Tony is a friendly, exuberant boy who needs to learn basic manners. He loves attention and is very food motivated! Our special price for his adoption allows his lucky family to invest in his training, treats, and toys! Look in his eyes, and you'll know that this sweet soul hasn't always been treated well, but he still believes in human kindness. That said, Tony can be selective with his doggo friends.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Daisy is a sweet and gentle girl, estimated to be around 2.5 years old. This unique girl, a blend of Greyhound and Pitbull, came into our care as her owner’s living situation was changing and wasn't able to continue giving Daisy the attention she deserves. She has been a well-loved girl, so she's ready to become a cherished family member in her new forever home! Daisy has wonderful manners on the leash and truly adores human interaction. She's a calm and affectionate companion who will happily enjoy quality time with her people. She has also previously lived with other dogs, so she may enjoy having a compatible canine companion in her new home to play with and snuggle up to. A meet & greet would take place before adoption to ensure compatibility.  This special girl is looking for a family to shower her with the love and care she deserves. If you’re looking for a loyal, well-mannered, and sweet-natured friend, please complete an adoption application for Daisy.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Blu, a handsome 5(ish)-year-old boy with a heart of gold. This charming gentleman, previously known in his younger puppy days as 'Walnut', recently found himself back with us at the shelter after a difficult situation and serious altercation with his canine housemate. While this situation was instigated by the other dog (Lola) in the home, the difficult decision was made to return both dogs due to the concern of any further injury and for the safety of those living in the home. Blu's former family adored him, describing him as 'the best boy' with 'an old soul,' and it's clear he was a cherished member of their family. Now, Blu is looking for a patient and loving home where he can once again be the center of someone's world. Blu is a sensitive boy who appreciates a calm and predictable environment. He's also a bit sensitive to loud noises, but a little reassurance goes a long way. While he has been generally more comfortable with women, he will warm up to men with time, positive reinforcement, and a gentle approach. Blu is an incredibly loyal and loving companion. His former family raved about how much he loves to sunbath outside, go for walks and car rides, and how he knows just about any 'trick' in the book (sit, shake, lay down, spin, speak, and whisper).  Blu is sure to be a wonderful partner for someone who loves to spoil their pup with both affection and fun activities. They also mentioned that he is house trained and is trained to go to the door when he needed to go outside. If you're looking for a devoted and easy-going best friend who promises to fill your life with love, look no further than Blu. He's ready to be your loyal companion and the missing piece of your family. Please complete an adoption application for Blu if you're interested in meeting him - this application can be found on our website at www.wesavepets.com. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 1, 2025, 4:06 pm
