Story
Pepper will be 2 years old in December. She is a very smart, loving girl who enjoys being outside just as much as she loves curling up for cuddles. She is kennel trained, lets you know when she needs to go outside, is spayed, and is up to date on all of her vaccinations.She is great with kids, but I think she would do best in a home with older children who can match her energy and understand her boundaries. She would thrive with someone who has the time to continue giving her the love, attention, exercise, and structure she deserves. This decision has been one of the hardest I’ve ever had to make, and I will not be rehoming her to just anyone. My priority is finding a safe, loving, forever home where she’ll be treated like family.If you or someone you know feels they could give Pepper the life she deserves, please send me a message. I’d love to answer any questions and make sure she’s the right fit

Story
9 year old female Black Lab Mix named Willow we are looking to rehome. I have had her since she was 8 weeks old and she has been loved all of her life. Unfortunately, with our growing family we are having a hard time finding time for her and want her to have the best life for her remaining years. We have a 2 year old daughter and a new born boy now. She hasn't been a issue around either but she does like her space. Our 2 year has a hard time giving her the space she wants and I fear she may end up biting her. I don't believe she ever would, but she has shown signs that she is uncomfortable. Willow is microchipped and has had all vaccines up until this last year. She gets simparica trio each month and has never had any health issues other than an eye infection that was resolved when she was around 3.

Story
Jeffrey has been with us for a little while now, so he can be a bit nervous around new people—but don’t let that stop you from getting to know him. Once he warms up, he reveals his true personality: a sweet, playful pup with a heart full of love. Tennis balls are his absolute favorite, and he never says no to a good chew toy or a game of fetch. He also loves spending time outside, exploring the yard and soaking up the sunshine. Jeffrey is still polishing up his manners, but he’s a quick learner who just wants to make his people proud. With a little patience and consistency, he’ll thrive in a home where he feels safe and loved. He’s neutered, up to date on his vaccines, heartworm tested, and microchipped for his safety. If you’re someone who can offer him the time and trust he needs, Jeffrey will reward you with loyalty, affection, and lots of tail wags.

Story
Pip is a fun-loving, high-energy girl who lives life at full speed — truly an all gas, no brakes kind of dog. She loves to run around, play hard, and stay on the move, making her a great match for an active home that enjoys exercise and adventure. Pip is a bit of a food hog, which makes her very food-motivated and eager to learn, and her enthusiasm is equal parts hilarious and endearing. Despite her boundless energy, Pip is incredibly sweet and loves attention, affection, and being part of the action with her people. She has a big personality and a joyful spirit that can light up a room. Pip is spayed, up to date on vaccines, heartworm tested, and microchipped, and she’s ready to find a forever home that can keep up with her zest for life and give her all the love she deserves. 🐶💖

Story
Looking for a loving home for the sweetest, full bred black Labrador, Ollie. Ollie is 5 and half years old and lives in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Due to recent health issues with my elderly mother we unfortunately have to rehome Ollie as my mom can longer care for him. Ollie is fully trained, incredibly intelligent and sweet. He loves the outdoors and exercise of any kind! He’s been pampered and well cared for since being a puppy. Wonderful and protective family dog with the ideal home not having children and lots of green running space. Ready to rehome in September

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Juliette! She is looking for a forever home where she can have time to settle in and be herself. She is quite timid and will require a secure, fenced in back yard to run in. We don't know everything about Juliette's background but she is sensitive to having her collar touched and tends to drop to the ground if you go to grab her collar. Despite being a little shy, she is a very playful dog and would do well with another canine friend to live with. She gets along with other dogs of all sizes and plays very well with her 7 pound foster sibling. Juliette had not been cat tested so we are not sure how she would do in a home with other cats. She is potty trained and kennel trained. She loves her kennel and prefers to be in there when home alone because she is pretty anxious. Juliette does have some minor resource guarding and does not like if other dogs get near her food bowl so it is best to separate her into her kennel for feeding times. Juliette's adoption fee is $250 and includes her spay, microchip, current vaccinations and preventatives, as well as a free basic obedience course at Cedar Run #2 in Hiawatha. Last hope requires that all animals be kept as indoor only pets and that adopters have a history of keeping their pets altered and current on vaccinations. If you are interested in meeting Juliette, please fill out an adoption application for consideration on our website, www.adopthope.org. Our adoption process includes a background check, vet history check, and a home visit. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 9, 2026, 11:31 am
