My story

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

What can I say about this ole boy? He is such a character. He came to us as a stray and no one claimed him. He gets so excited when we go in his kennel, and he loves to go on walks on a leash.
Festus used to hunt, but because of his age he doesn't do that any longer. Although if he were allowed to just run free, we know he would follow his nose.
He does great with the other dogs here, and just needs a fenced yard and a warm place when cold weather comes to our area.
He is a special boy, and if you like hounds you will love this senior.

12 Hills Dog Rescue asks that you call for appointments to meet our pets. Since the rescue is on our family farm, where we live, we want to have the freedom to choose when those times and dates of adoption are.

We live 30 miles from Sioux City, IA (4 miles from Winnebago) turn left and go east on H Ave. for 2 1/2 miles.
Or 2 miles north of the Walthill community (turn east on H Ave and go 21/2 miles or 12 hills to our farm.

More about this rescue

12 Hills Dog Rescue is a no-kill rescue taking in dogs that have been abused or abandoned. We began as a semi-retired couple, and added one part-time person to assist. In 2015 we applied and received our 501c3 non-profit status. We need volunteers to walk, brush and help socialize the dogs that we care for.
