Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hello, my name is Bo, but you can call me Mr. Wonderful or something else but don't call me late for dinner. Are you ready to meet me? I'm a wonderful dog that likes going outside and for walks. I need a fenced in yard because I like to chase things like the bunny that is usually in my neighbor's yard.  I don't think I would like living with rambunctious kids, but adults with a quiet home would suit me well. If you want to sit back and watch TV, I'm right there sitting next to you. I like treats and I’ve loved going to doggie daycare to make new friends. I’ve also worked with the trainer to learn some new skills, I’m happy to do anything for a treat! Bo's adoption fee is $250 and includes his neuter, microchip, current vaccinations and preventatives.  If you would like to meet Bo, please submit an adoption application through our website Adopthope.org.  Last Hope requires that adopters have a history of having kept animals as indoor pets only, altered and kept current on vaccinations and preventatives. Our adoption process includes a vet history check and a home visit.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 4, 2024, 6:20 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Introducing Gigi! What's not to love about this darling little 4 pound wiggle butt? She wakes up every morning, happy as can be and full of energy! She loves being carried around and insists she lay her head on you whenever you're sitting nearby. She needs a little time to warm up to new people, but after that she is your best friend! She would love to have another little dog to play with and gets super excited whenever the leash comes out because that means she gets to go on walks. She walks perfectly and loves being outside. She also enjoys lounging in her dog bed where she can dig and hide under all the blankets. She may need a sign saying "don't step here" because she will completely bury herself in the bed. With her being so tiny, she would be best suited in a home with no large dogs or small children that do not understand they may hurt her. She will also require a securely fenced in back yard. Gigi's adoption fee is $250 and includes her spay, microchip, current vaccinations and prevention, plus a free basic obedience training class at Cedar Run #2 in Hiawatha. Last Hope requires that all animals be kept as indoor only pets and that adopters have a history of keeping their pets altered and up to date on vaccinations and preventatives. Our adoption process includes background and reference checks, a vet history check, and a home visit. If you would like to meet Gigi, please fill out an adoption application for consideration on our website, adopthope.org. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 7, 2024, 1:42 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Chichi! She is a very laid back and friendly dog who loves everyone she meets. She spends most of her day laying on the window bench and watching what's going on. She will especially be sure to let you know when other dogs are walking by! Chichi loves going for walks and would like a home that will give her lots more of them as she still needs to lose a little weight. She enjoys being picked up and put on the couch to cuddle and receive belly rubs, as her little legs don't want to jump that high. She does not mind the other little dogs she lives with because in her eyes human attention is WAY better. Chichi will need a securely fenced in back yard where she can run around and explore! Every time she goes out, she just wants to run and run and find all the new smells out there. She is really just a perfect laid back little girl.   Chichi's adoption fee is $250 and includes her spay, microchip, current vaccinations and prevention, plus a free basic obedience training class at Cedar Run #2 in Hiawatha.

ADORABLE baby Boo! This tiny girl can curl up just about anywhere, the cuddliest of them all for real! This spunky pup is full of personality, always trying to get our attention while filling our hearts with love. Did I mention she LOVES to be close and cuddly?

She would love to be the center of your world, we can't blame her, how can you be THAT adorable and not be spoiled? This little girl would love a family who can give her all the love and affection she deserves. Boo is only about 3 months old, and a WHOPPING 3 pounds!

Story
Lilo the baby girl! At just about 5 months old, weighing in at a measly 3 pounds; she's full of love, life, and a huge personality! Despite being so small, Lilo finds her best friends within ANY size dog, cat, or kid! It may just be her appetite for some adventure! Or it could be because when she's able to cuddle up close, they keep her nice and warm. With mention to cuddles, Lilo is a true cuddle bug, whether she has the chance to leap into your lap, into the crook of your arm, or just down near your feet, she is a truly loyal little girl. Anytime she's given time in the lobby, you'll always catch her within someone's trail, taking a nap, or sitting up, eagerly awaiting her next interaction with people, kids, dogs, or cats. What I personally love most about Lilo is her ability to learn, and so incredibly quick. She has her simple commands down, while she always tends to respond with much more enthusiasm when there's treats nearby, she has yet to let us down! Lilo seems to be completely house-broken, using her crate-training over night, and during work hours, and is a one of a kind pup. Open to just about any home that enjoys spending their time with a canine companion! She is the cutest thing ever, as I wandered around searching for her to take her pictures, I found her in a little blanket nook taking a nap.

Story
Mister Mello! A renowned favorite here, EASILY! This boy should be part of our paid-staff, he's the best greeter dog we've got, with his endless wiggles! He never fails to greet EVERYONE with a wiggly butt, happy boy smile, and all the kisses they desire! Whether it's a cat, dog, kid, anyone anything - he's always jolly to meet new friends! He ALWAYS leaves a smile on EVERYONE'S face, as he's just that type of pup! At about a year old and a hardy 15 pounds, his size is juuuustttt right! He TREASURES his toys, specifically stuffies, it's so adorable! We think that makes him even better, as he's so much life, and love in one itsy bitsy baby! Not to mention, Mello snuggles are top-tier, he's essentially a warm heating pad on a winter day type of snuggler. We can't get enough of him. Mello loves spending his time on a lap, at people's feet, romping the dog run with others, or purely bathing in the sun, warming up and taking a nice nap. We really don't think puppies get much better than this guy! He's got his basics down, and is happy to show you all of it for treats! If you're looking for a pup that'll bring love and laughter beyond your beliefs into your home, come meet Mello. He's perfect.
