We are not a shelter. We are a small group of people with a sincere love for
animals. The towns we live in do not have shelters so we are helping the homeless
pets that have nowhere else to go. All the animals that we have will live in
our homes until adopted no matter how long that takes. We are very committed
to the animals we are helping.

Animal Welfare Services is a local group dedicated to networking all the Pet Professionals in the area together. We hope to network vets, pet store owners, rescue volunteers, shelter workers, boarding kennel owners and pet sitters,groomers and more.
We are in the process of getting our 501c3 (should be done by February 1 2008) and hope to have a local shelter by January 2009. I am the Internet Coordinator for Animal Welfare Services. We are *not yet* a shelter. Our volunteers are individuals who take animals into their own homes as they are able. Many times the animal stays in it's current home until a new home is found.

Located in Washington, Iowa, PAWS & More Animal Shelter is a non-profit, adoption guarantee shelter. In other words, we only euthanize if absolutely medically or behaviorally necessary. Our animals do not just run out of time. They are with us until they find forever homes, and we strive for that to be as short of time as possible. PAWS primarily serves Washington County, Iowa, and all cities within it, but we have several volunteers in the Cedar Rapids, Iowa, area. We do adoption days the first Saturday of the month at Petsmart and the second Saturday at Petco, both located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. We receive, on average, 550-600 animals per year. The shelter's income comes primarily from adoption fees, donations, grants, and fundraising activities. The local city and county government donations only cover a small percentage of the shelter's annual budget and are used primarily to support staff salaries and insurance.
Our contact info is below and animals available for adoption can be seen at:

We are a "network" of volunteer rescuers in the Midwest . Many of
us have known one another for years from helping with various local rescue
groups, shelters,
and national breed rescue groups. All of us have had the experience of coming
across a dog that needed help that didn’t have a rescue group that
could take
them into their program. We were finding that regardless of breed or whether
a dog is "purebred", there are many of us out there who wanted
to help these dogs
and need a place to list them. Therefore, we decided to start Midwest Dog Rescue
Network to help rescuers help dogs that would otherwise "fall through
the
cracks". We are a collection of rescuers and some good-hearted individuals,
who are just trying to help as many good dogs find homes as possible.
H.E.A.R.T. Hardin Eldora Animal Rescue Team
We are state inspected and licensed.
Our purpose is to promote spay and neuter, prevent cruelty and neglect, educate
the public, practice Trap, Neuter, Return of feral cats, reunite lost pets
with their owners and rescue and rehome abandoned and unwanted animals. We
do this out of our homes with limited resources, no outside funding and little
community support. Financial and space constraints keep the number of animals
we are able to help much smaller than we would like. No animal is ever 'put
to sleep' to make room for another! We are not 501(c)3 yet but we are definitely
non-profit! All animals are spayed or neutered and fully vetted before being
offered for adoption. Look for us @ www.heart-eldora.petfinder.com

We cover the states of Nebraska, Iowa and Kansas. We take Jack Russells into
our care who have been abandoned, relinquished by their owners or brought
to shelters as strays. We provide the terriers any needed veterinary care
and place them in a foster home. We are not a shelter but provide foster
care for the dogs until they have their forever home. We do not have a shelter
facility. In foster care, we try to find out as much as we can about the
terrier's temperament and about any special needs it might have. We socialize
the terrier and work on house training. The dog remains in foster care until
a permanent, loving home can be found. Foster dogs are in various locations
so please call/email for information on a particular dog.
