Dog of the Week: Damon

Julia D Dog of the Week

Meet Damon. He is an 11 year old Husky looking for his forever home. Don’t let his age fool you…..he still acts like a young pup a lot of the time. Other than some joint sensitivity, he is in great health and loves to go for walks. He can also be a big couch potato if that’s what you choose to do for …

Cat of the Week: Thelma

Julia D Cat of the Week

Hey there, they call me Thelma or to some, I’m known as Thelma Lou. I was rescued from a frightful hoarding situation from a home with nearly 40 other cats. The nice volunteers of Last Hope have been taking care of me for the past year. For a while, all I wanted to do was hide. I was very scared …

Happy Tail: Zip

Julia D Happy Tails

Nancy and Sherrie had a dog named Otis and they lost him in March. Missing him, one day Nancy was looking online and found Zip at Last Hope. It seemed like fate because Zip had the same kind of coloring as Otis so Nancy filled out an application. There were other coincidences that convinced Nancy that Zip was the dog …

Cat of the Week: Harley

Julia D Cat of the Week

Harley is a beautiful Snowshoe mix who came to us after spending some time at another shelter where he was overlooked. The theory was that it was because he doesn’t like other cats. He’s very vocal about it and will tell you all about why he should be your one and only! Who can blame him though? He’s a sweet, older …

Dog of the Week: Fargo

Julia D Dog of the Week

My name is Fargo and I joined Last Hope all the way from Texas this year! I’m so glad the volunteers at Last Hope scooped me up and brought me into their safe care, I didn’t have a very great start to my life. Although my ears look different and my body has a few scars, I have so much …

Dog of the Week: Legacy (Lucy)

Hi, Lucy here! My name was Legacy when I arrived in Iowa, but my foster family thought Lucy was much cuter!  I lived in a crowded shelter with my brother Reggie in south Texas before Last Hope swooped us up. Reggie has found his forever home, but I’m still searching for mine! I am nine months old (8/18) and I LOVE everyone, though I …
