Shiba was a rescue found on the streets back in 2016, this puts her estimated age around 10 years old. She gets along well with our pomeranian, and our oldest husky mix but not our Shiba Inu therefore we are looking for a new home for her where she will get the attention and exercise she needs. She has never had any medical issues and is extremely fit, she knows basic commands and is very well behaved on walks. Message me to set up a time to meet Shiba and see if she will be the right fit for you!

Story
Togo came to us from Wichita Animal Shelter. He was listed as a stray and on the euthanasia list. We previously adopted Togo out to a family who invested in his training. He has been a model dog for their family. However, they needed to move and were forced to make a decision to return Togo to us. Togo is a GSD/Husky/possibly Malamute mix. True to his GSD side, he is loyal and intelligent. The Husky brings out the drama and escape artist. The Malamute, his calm, aloof, but headstrong nature. He knows how to sit and lay down. He has been working hard to walk on a leash nicely and to limit his jumping. His quirks: He is a jumper and can clear a 6ft fence. He is a big boy and will knock you over if you aren’t prepared, so small children may be a risk. Togo needs to be in with a family and spoiled rotten. If you are interested in a lifetime of devotion, Togo is your guy.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Front leg amputation, FHOSay hello to Homer, our three-legged wonder with a spirit that’s anything but broken. At 2.5 years old, this extra-large sweetheart came into rescue after a serious injury left one of his front legs beyond saving and his hips in need of surgical intervention as well. But don’t let the missing leg fool you—Homer has adapted like a champ and gets around just fine, with that same big heart and loyal nature pit bulls are known for. Homer is a laid-back lovebug who enjoys hanging out with his people, sunbathing in the yard, and soaking up gentle affection. He’s friendly with other dogs, especially those who can provide  a calm vibe for him to match - no rough-and-tumble play styles for this guy, just chill companionship and good company. He’d do best with a respectful, easygoing dog friend or as your one-and-only snuggle buddy. He's great with older kids (ages 5+) who can understand his physical boundaries and help him navigate the world with care. But cats? Not Homer's jam, so a feline-free home is a must. Despite everything he’s been through, Homer has held onto his soft, sweet soul. All he’s missing now is a forever family to love him for the incredible dog he is—three legs and all. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with the soul of a survivor and a whole lot of love to give, Homer might just be your hero. Homer’s adoption fee is $250 and includes his neuter, microchip, current vaccines and preventatives plus a free basic training course at Cedar Run Company #2 in Hiawatha. Homer is seeking a home as an indoor pet only, Last Hope requires that you have a history of having kept any previous pets altered, kept current on vaccines and preventatives and as indoor pets only. If you would like to meet Homer, please submit an adoption application at Adopthope.org Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 15, 2025, 12:01 pm
