Homeward Bound In The Heartland Animal Rescue Inc

Animal rescue in Omaha, NE

Homeward Bound in the Heartland was formed in 2009, through a small group of rescuers in the Omaha, NE / Council Bluffs, IA area that do this in our spare time because of our love and dedication in helping animals. We do not have a shelter, so many of our pets are placed in foster homes. We rescue homeless/abused/neglected/abandoned animals from high stressed situations. as well as those animals that are in danger of being euthanized at a shelter.

We never discriminate on the basis of health, age or breed. By involving and educating the community, Homeward Bound in the Heartland works to raise the public's awareness of the plight of homeless animals as well as realizing the benefits of adopting an animal in need. Our animals are examined, vaccinated, spayed or neutered and receive any and all medical treatment before they are placed in carefully screened homes.
