My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Johnny needs an experience adopter. He is such a sweet and amazing dog once you have build that trust with him. He takes a very long time to warm up and trust new people. He would do best in a home where he is the only dog because he is not sure how to properly play with other dogs. He does fine with cats though. Whomever adopts Johnny needs to realize that he is not one that enjoys getting out and visiting new places. He would just love a place where he can lounge in a quiet, low key home and not be to over stimulated.

More about this shelter

PALS’ mission is to provide care and shelter for homeless or unwanted animals, to strive to find permanent, loving homes for these animals, to educate children and adults in our communities on the humane treatment of animals, and on the importance of spaying and neutering to prevent pet overpopulation.

PALS has worked extremely hard to provide our county with a shelter. Prior to our opening, the only option for stray animals picked up by city police and sheriff’s departments in Poweshiek County was a 7-day stay at local veterinary clinics. If owners or an adopting family were not found in that short period of time, the animals were then euthanized. PALS has stepped in not only to provide a safe haven for these homeless animals, but to also ensure they receive responsible vet care including spay/neuters, shots, deworming, and flea/tick control, as well as addressing any emergency medical concerns. We are happy to report that we have helped more than 1000 animals find loving homes!
