Story
Jacey is a 7-month-old female Red Heeler/Shepherd mix with a stunning burnt red coat, accented by classic heeler white and adorable speckles on her snout, chest, and paws. She and her littermates were found dumped in Texas, but thanks to our amazing rescue partners there, Jacey and one of her sisters made their way to safety—and now Jacey is ready to find her forever home. Jacey is a very sensitive, timid soul. New environments and unfamiliar people can feel overwhelming for her, especially busy or chaotic situations. At times it seems like she never truly got the chance to learn how to be a carefree puppy, so she needs patience, understanding, and time to build confidence. She doesn’t enjoy being crowded by new dogs and prefers to make friends slowly and on her own terms. With gradual, respectful introductions, we’re confident she’ll do well with another canine companion—and she may even benefit from having a calm, confident dog in the home to help show her the ropes. She’s also cautious around new people, so a quiet, gentle approach is best. But once Jacey knows you’re safe? She completely melts. This girl is an absolute lovebug—she adores nuzzling into your neck, curling up on your lap, and showering her person with kisses. Once she bonds, she’s a total velcro dog who just wants to be close. Jacey does well with other dogs, cats, and kids, as long as her boundaries are respected. She’s potty-trained, crate-trained, and already has polite basic manners. With the right patient, loving home, Jacey will blossom into the most loyal, affectionate companion you could ever ask for. If you’re looking to offer a gentle heart a safe place to land—and be rewarded with endless cuddles in return—Jacey just might be your perfect match.

Story
Zipp is a 2-year-old, 45 pound, Australian Cattle Dog. She came to us from the Bethany, Missouri Pound, where she had unfortunately landed twice in the last year. The first time was back in April, when her owner reclaimed her, updated her vaccines, and provided proof to the city. In early September, she was picked up running at large again. This time, her owner denied she was his dog. That’s when Zipp’s new chapter began. She moved into one of our foster homes in Bethany nd did great there with five other dogs. Last week she made her way to Iowa, where she’s been showing us what a truly wonderful dog she is. Zipp plays well with both male and female dogs and absolutely loves people. She’s got great doggy manners. If another dog isn’t interested in playing, she reads the room and simply moves on. She rides beautifully in the car, enjoys going for walks, and loves to fetch. Zipp pays attention to her people and knows her name well. If you call her or whistle she comes right to you. Zipp is house trained, kennel trained, spayed, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm tested, and microchipped. She does require a physically fenced yard so she can safely run and play. If you’re looking for a sweet, social, and loyal companion, Zipp is your girl. If you would like to meet Zipp, please complete the adoption application on our website: www.furfunrescue.org. If you have questions about Zipp you can contact rox@furfunrescue.org or call 319-929-6657. Adopters must be within a two-hour radius of Cedar Rapids, IA.  Indoor homes only.  Adoption fee $300.

Story
Meet Roux, a 9-month-old, 22-pound Australian Cattle Dog mix who decided the golf course in Independence, Iowa was her personal playground. She spent several days perfecting her zoomies on the fairway before the owner finally called Brett from the Corgi Rehab Sanctuary. Brett showed up expecting a Corgi… but surprise! Roux is definitely not a Corgi — so she joined us instead. Roux is a happy, playful girl who loves toys, fetch, and a good game of tug-of-war. When playtime is over, she’ll happily curl up in your lap for a nap (because being this cute is exhausting). She’s house and kennel trained, food motivated and learning her basic commands like a pro. Roux will need a physically fenced yard to safely practice her championship-level zoomies. One more thing — no cats, please. Roux thinks they’re part of the game, and the cats strongly disagree. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, smart, snuggly teammate, Roux is ready to trade the golf course for your backyard! Roux is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm tested and microchipped. If you would like to meet Roux, please complete the adoption application on our website: www.furfunrescue.org. If you have questions about Roux you can contact rox@furfunrescue.org or call 319-929-6657. Adopters must be within a two-hour radius of Cedar Rapids, IA.  Indoor homes only.  Adoption fee $300.

Story
Meet Coco – Your Future Adventure Partner! Coco is a 2-year-old Australian Cattle Dog (Blue Heeler) with brains, beauty, and boundless energy to match. True to his breed, Coco is smart, driven, and always ready for his next job or adventure. He’s looking for a savvy adopter, ideally someone familiar with Heelers, who understands how important structure, training, and mental enrichment are for a dog like him. Once Coco trusts you, his sweet and loyal side truly shines. He forms strong bonds with his people and is incredibly rewarding for someone willing to put in the time to build that relationship. With his striking good looks and expressive face, it’s hard not to fall for him. Coco would do best in a home without small children, and he may be happiest as the only dog, where he can soak up all the attention and guidance he deserves. He thrives when given clear expectations, consistent routines, and outlets for his energy - think training sessions, enrichment games, and active days. Coco is part of our Paws Forward Program, meaning his future adopter will have 3 free training sessions post adoption with Janette from Kind K9s to help set him up for success. If you’re experienced, active, and looking for a loyal companion who will challenge you in all the best ways, Coco might be your perfect match. Come meet him and see if you’re the person he’s been waiting for. 🐾 Can't adopt? Please share!
