Your future best friend, personal comedian, and professional zoomie champion Chui is a dashing black-and-white American Bully with a heart as big as his personality. This guy doesn’t just walk into a room… he arrives! Whether he’s striking a pose like he’s on a magazine cover or bouncing around like he just discovered gravity for the first time, Chui keeps life exciting. He’s got spunk for days and a playful spirit that turns ordinary moments into adventures. Toys? Amazing. Treats? Incredible. You? His absolute favorite.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Bailey Lou is a spunky little pup with a big personality and an even bigger love for fun. This confident girl knows what she likes and isn't afraid to show it! She's a playful, curious puppy who absolutely loves toys and will happily entertain herself tossing them around. Even better? Bailey Lou is very food motivated, which makes training a great bonding opportunity and helps her learn quickly. She has already started crate training and is doing great.  Because Bailey can be a bit of a bossy gal, she is looking for a home that's the right fit for her personality. She would do best in a home without cats or small dogs (under 20#), as she prefers companions who can match her confidence and play style. She's also still working through typical puppy behaviors like being a little mouthy during play, so a home with older children would be best.  Bailey Lou will thrive with a family that enjoys playtime, toys, and positive training to help her channel her energy and smarts. With the right guidance and plenty of enrichment, she's going to grow into a fun, loyal companion who keeps life exciting.  Bailey Lou has all her age appropriate vaccinations. She will require a spay surgery when she is 8 to 10 months old which will be a requirement of her adoption. Bailey is seeking an indoor only home and her adoption fee is $300 which includes her current vaccinations, preventatives, microchip, and a free basic training class at Cedar Run #2 in Hiawatha. Last Hope requires that adopters have a history of having kept their pets altered and current on wellness exams, vaccinations, and preventative care. Our adoption process includes a background check, home visit, and vet history check.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Porkchop!! This handsome dude is around 7 years old, and 60 pounds of personality! Porkchop is seeking a super stable home, with an experienced dog owner.  He can be your couch potato partner if you bribe him with belly rubs, or your backyard companion helping to rid the yard of birds and squirrels (and tennis balls, too!).  Porkchop is super food motivated, so it was easy to train him to sit and we know he'll do great learning lots of other new commands.  He loves to be with his person, and can be somewhat standoffish with new people or situations.  Porkchop will need to be your only dog in the home, or possibly paired with a very docile and confident larger female dog.  Pushy or over friendly dogs don't mesh well with his personality.  No kids or cats for Porkchop, please! Porkchop can be  a vocal dog, he will talk and grumble at you to let you know what he's thinking - we think it’s pretty cute!  Porkchop's adoption fee is $250 and includes his neuter, microchip and current vaccinations and preventatives PLUS a free basic obedience course at Cedar Run Company in Hiawatha.  Last Hope requires that potential adopters current animals be altered, current on vaccinations and preventatives and be kept as indoor pets only.  Our adoption process includes reference and background checks, a vet check and a home visit.  Please submit an adoption application for consideration through our website.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 9, 2026, 11:31 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.BB is a 50lb bundle of energy who's looking for the right home to help him shine. This affectionate pup is a fun-loving, loyal guy who is eager to learn and share adventures. BB is a fairly easy walker who enjoys exploring the park and splashing around in natural waters (pools just aren't really his thing). He would thrive with someone who's home more often than not - he's not a huge fan of being left in his kennel for long stretches. BB has lots of enthusiasm for life and would do best with the company of a playful dog companion, close to his size that is confident and calmer than he is. However, he would also do well as an only pet. When it comes to other animals, he is not a match with smaller dogs or cats. We aren't exactly sure what BB's breed mix is, our volunteers have speculated that he sort of looks and acts like an XL Boston Terrier! Pictures don't do this cutie justice, he really is adorable!  This boy is very food motivated and already knows "sit" and "shake." He loves to play ball and his own version of "catch me if you can," but he is also pretty good about giving up his toys when asked. He is still working on staying calm and keeping four paws on the ground, but with consistency and positive reinforcement, he'll make great progress. With that being said, he would not be a match for a home with young children. With the right outlet for his energy and plenty of love, BB will make a fun and loyal companion. BB's adoption fee is $250 and includes his neuter, microchip, current vaccinations and preventatives. Also included in the adoption fee is a free basic training 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 having kept their pets altered and up to date on vaccinations and preventatives. If you are interested in meeting BB, please fill out an adoption application on our website adopthope.org. The 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

Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Courtesy ListingIntroducing Winston! Not much is known about Winston's past, and he's chosen to keep it that way - so he remains a bit of a mystery. What we do know is that he's a charming, distinguished older gentleman with a big personality packed into a compact frame. If you love the classic English Bulldog attitude but prefer it in a smaller size, Winston could be your perfect match. At just 46 Ibs, he's a pint sized bulldog with a whole lot of character! Winston could be best described as a man-child who refuses to grow up. He approaches life with enthusiasm and curiosity, especially when it comes to investigating his surroundings (and occasionally rearranging them.) If you enjoy an active, entertaining companion who keeps things interesting, Winston will happily oblige.  He has strong opinions about dog beds - mostly that they're unnecessary - and prefers his space to be just the way he likes it. He's also very passionate about games and likes to play by his own rules. When things don't go his way... be prepared for a "mantrum!"  Winston would do best in a home without cats and prefers calm, easygoing dogs who respect his boundaries as he likes to be the one in charge. Because of his enthusiasm and strength, Winston would be best suited for a home with older children (12+) who understand how to give him space and interact respectfully. If you're looking for a fun, confident companion with a big personality and a sense of humor, Winston may be just the dog you've been waiting for. He's not perfect - but he's perfectly Winston.  Winston's adoption fee is $250 and includes his neuter, microchip, current vaccinations and preventatives, plus a free basic training course at Cedar Run #2 in Hiawatha. Winston is seeking an indoor only home with adopters that have a history of having kept their pets altered, indoors, and current on wellness exams, vaccinations, and preventative care. If you would like to meet Winston, please submit an adoption application on our website, 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
