Adopt A Stray Rescue- IA transport Animal rescue in Des Moines, IA

Adopt-A-Stray Rescue's unique mission is to rescue any dog or puppy in need, with a concentrated effort on family units, injured or sick, older, and less adoptable dogs.  While many other rescues look to save only healthy young dogs, AASR recognizes that every dog deserves a second chance, and we are committed to providing for their medical and emotional needs, bridging the gap between their former lives of abuse and neglect, and their future lives filled with hope and love. We at AASR believe that for every homeless, mixed breed, or older canine, there is a loving forever family waiting to welcome them home.
