Featured Dog

 Photo of Pongo

Pongo

Dalmation Mix
Size: Medium
Age: Adult
Sex: Male

Notes:  Pongo is easy-going, very gentle and loving. He loves hugs and enjoys leisurely walks. Due to a severe ear infection that went untreated, Pongo cannot hear. Don’t think for a minute that this gets in his way of living a normal dog’s life — he is very social and does just great getting around and such. Pongo’s other senses are very sharp due to his hearing loss and he’s very smart and a quick learner.

 He is crate-trained and wouldn't mind a feline to keep him company. He loves kids and does great on leash. He is currently living in a foster home in Washington. For more information, please contact Sheila at shedesigns@iowatelecom.net or 319-863-0604. All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, and have been updated on all routine shots.


[Adoptable Cats List]

Featured Cat

Slippers

Domestic Short Hair - black and white, mitted
Size: Medium
Age: Young
Sex: Female

Notes: Slipper's adoption fee has been reduced by $20 as she has unfortunately been waiting for a forever home for too long. "I just know my Prince/Princess Charming is going to find me and take me home!"

Slippers is a mitted black short-hair with beautiful markings and white whiskers that contrast charmingly with her black face. She was found all alone, wandering down a busy highway that leads to our local airport. She is a calm kitty and can be a bit shy, but is also very curious and likes to investigate new things. One of her favorite things is to be scratched behind her ears. She likes to snuggle up with the other cats for naps and gets along with most dogs.

 All our cats have been spayed/neutered, tested for feline leukemia, vaccinated against feline distemper and feline parvo, and have been wormed. They have also been treated for fleas and ear mites, bathed, and come with bragging rights. Microchipping will take place at the time of adoption.

Driving Directions:
We are slightly hidden. We are located at 1004 1/2 W. Madison Street (which is also Highway 92) in Washington, Iowa 52353. The shelter is behind the Casey's General Store.

Directions to our shelter from Cedar Rapids and points North:
Take 380 south. It will turn into 218 S. after crossing over I-80.
Continue until you see Hwy. 1 exit south to Kalona. When you get to Kalona, there will be a 4-way stop sign. Continue straight through the stop sign towards Washington. You will come to the Junction of Hwys. 1 and 92 where you will continue staight through. Once into town, the highway will turn into four lanes. Watch for a Pizza Hut on your left in about a block. After Pizza Hut, you'll see a True Value, and next is a Casey's. We are a gray building BEHIND the Casey's. So, if you've passed Casey's, you've gone too far.

If coming from the south on Hwy. 1, you will turn turn right onto the four-laned highway. Watch for a Pizza Hut on your left in about a block. After Pizza Hut, you'll see a True Value,and next is a Casey's. We are a gray building BEHIND the Casey's. So, if you've passed Casey's, you've gone too far.

If coming from the east on Hwy. 92, remain on 92 all the way through town to the west side. Watch for a Casey's on your right. We are BEHIND the Casey's. We are a gray building.
