Story
Aria is a young mixed working breed who came to us after being found hiding under farm equipment on someone’s property. It’s believed she had been wandering the area for several weeks, likely surviving on her own before finding safety with us. Understandably, Aria needs a little time to warm up to new people — but once she trusts you, she loves with her whole heart. She has had playgroups with dogs her size, but she needs time to get acquainted. She’s a very sweet girl who is eager to please, making her a great candidate for continued training and bonding with her new family. Aria is ready for a home that will give her patience, structure, and the love she’s been waiting for.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Marsh & Coral are not currently up for adoption at our shelter - instead we are helping their owner, Dawn, by listing them as Courtesy Listings in hopes we can help find someone that will welcome this duo in to their home! Please read their bio below as further details have been provided by their current owner.  Dawn's contact info is down below for anyone potentially interested.... "Marsh and Corals story begins on Nov 25, 2025 on a gravel road on a cold Nov day .. Outside of Conesville, IA , down from our farm .. by the Marsh area .. That’s how this 1 year old beautiful Red Heeler Mix got his name Marsh and his side kick  .. Who we named Coral after a Coral fossil that was found in our area .. Coral is also 1 year old and is a Tan Heeler mix .. she’s all legs and full of energy and love  .. Marsh loves to give hugs and snuggles and loves to herd Coral when he gets the chance .. he’s very protective over Coral but loves to steal her food … Marsh is a sweet heart and loves attention and doesn't mind pushing Coral away from me to get the attention first .. Marsh has a 1/3 blue right eye that’s very beautiful even though he likes to be above Coral the boss, he’s very, very much protected and loves her very much.. Marsh and Coral are both housebroken. Marsh and Coral both just had their shots and spay/neuter surgeries on Dec 23 ,2025 .. and are still healing but both doing great .. we have both dogs in our home and both dogs have not had an issue with going in the home.. And they both love children and listen really well and do well on a leash … I’m not sure if they are siblings but with both heeler mix and both a year old confirmed by the vet that did their surgeries I think there’s a possibility, they could be siblings .. Even though we found them on Nov 25 we were not able to get them to the farm until Nov 28 due to them being scared and wanting to stay in that location .. a few times we couldn’t find them .. we searched for them on the four wheeler, hoping to find them before the snowstorm came in with no luck .. the night  before the snow storm hit I came back into the same location again by this time they were ready to follow us at the three days on their own in the cold .. I got out of my vehicle when I walked with the dogs up the hill and the barking in the cold as my husband drove ahead of us slowly because we could not convince Marsh  to get in the vehicle ..where Coral wanted in the truck .. he’s a thinker and she just does it .. both dogs were hungry and underweight .. Coral being the worst shape .. Marsh had a collar strapped around his chest and leg .. We love both of these beautiful dogs. And it’s been a pleasure having them with us on the farm and watching them thrive …as much a we love them ..we cant keep them, due to our own 2 dogs ..  now hoping that they will get a forever home. They both have been through a lot together. We are hoping for a Christmas miracle for these two beautiful babies."

Story
Meet Tatiana! 🌟This stunning 2-year-old, 40-pound Carolina Dog/Cattle Dog mix is ready to start a new chapter—and she’s hoping it’s with you! With her graceful frame and regal features, we wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a little Pharaoh Hound in her lineage too. (We’d love if her future family did a DNA test and shared the results!) Tatiana was rescued just in time with her puppies when their time was up at the shelter. She was a devoted mama, and now that her pups are weaned and thriving, it’s finally her turn to be doted on. She’s gentle, loving, and friendly with everyone she meets—dogs and humans alike! Tatiana loves playing and romping with her doggy friends but also has a calm, sweet side that makes her the perfect companion. Ready to give a deserving mama the happily-ever-after she’s earned? Tatiana can’t wait to meet you.
