✨ Support a Golden Life Pet Boutique! ✨

If you haven’t checked out A Golden Life Pet Boutique, now is the perfect time! Nealey, the amazing owner, gives back to the community in so many ways — including hosting fundraisers to support the animals of Kiya Koda. Her generosity and heart make such a difference, and we are incredibly grateful for everything she does.

Let’s help her business thrive the way she helps our animals thrive. 🐾❤️
Stop in, shop local, and show some love to A Golden Life Pet Boutique!

Small businesses make big impacts — especially ones with hearts as golden as Nealey’s. ✨🐶🛍️

One year of A Golden Life Pet Boutique.

A bittersweet day.

This store was started because my favorite kind of shopping is shopping for my dogs. The Indianola Main Street community has grown so much over the years. Yet, it was still lacking a place for the pets.

This store was meant to sell the cleanest treats, the highest quality products, and a welcoming place for both the animals and humans.

We’ve done that and more. We’ve helped Kiya Koda Humane Society by running multiple fundraisers. We’ve began creating a more dog friendly community with our window stickers showing local businesses that allow well behaved pets to come in.

However, losing these two, my two business partners, during the past year makes it tough to love every second of this business. But, losing the love of this business wouldn’t leave the legacy these two deserve.

This business was created for them and one way or another, we will make sure this business thrives for them.

Thank you for all of the support of this little pet boutique. It’s been a fun, tough year. But, knowing we are providing all of our customers the best pet products makes us know we are doing it right.

So, please, don’t forget about your furry friends this holiday season. Don’t have one? Come buy something for the pets of Kiya Koda without a home for the holidays. Or, simply refer your friends and families by word of mouth, by sharing our posts, or giving us a good review. It all helps more than you know.

Meet Bear 🐾

Bear is a 105-pound Rottweiler mix with a big heart and an even bigger personality. He’s looking for an experienced, responsible adopter who can give him the structure and guidance he thrives with. Once Bear knows and trusts you, he becomes a devoted companion who truly believes he’s a lap dog at heart.

Bear loves to play and run in the yard and would enjoy a home where he has space to burn off energy. He does best with a strong-minded, confident handler who can provide consistent boundaries and leadership.

Bear would do best as the only dog or with a proper meet-and-greet with any resident dogs. He showed no reaction to cats while in the shelter. Due to his size and strength, he needs a home with no young children; older, dog-savvy children may be considered.

If you’re experienced, patient, and ready to give this big boy the loving, structured home he deserves, Bear may be the perfect match for you. 💙

Oso would love a home for Christmas! 🐻

Oso is a young Chow Chow who truly lives up to his name — “bear”! With his fluffy coat and teddy-bear looks, he’s impossible not to love.

Chow Chows are known for being loyal, intelligent, and independent, and Oso is already showing those wonderful traits. He’s playful, curious, and often acts like he wants to play with other dogs. While Chows can sometimes be more reserved by nature, Oso has a fun, goofy side that really shines when he’s in the mood to zoom around and play.

He will do best with an adopter who understands the Chow Chow breed and can provide consistent guidance, patience, and training to help him grow into a confident adult dog. Oso would love a home that gives him both fun playtime and calm, structured routines.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a big personality and an even bigger heart, Oso might be your perfect match! 🐾

A huge thank you to All Creatures Small Animal Hospital!
We are incredibly grateful to them for hosting a December fundraiser and supply drive to support the animals at Kiya Koda Humane Society. Their kindness and generosity mean so much to us and to every animal who comes through our doors.

All month long, you can stop by their lobby to:
🐾 Drop off much-needed supplies
🐾 Make a monetary donation to help with our veterinary bill and the cost of getting animals ready for adoption

Every donation—big or small—helps us provide care, comfort, and a second chance to the pets who need it most. We couldn’t do this without the kindness of our community and amazing partners like All Creatures Small Animal Hospital.

Adopted! 🎉🐾

Our little chihuahua mix Winston has officially found his forever home — and he now has a Kiya Koda alumni as his new fur sister, Ivy!

These two hit it off right away, and we couldn’t be happier for this adorable pair. Winston is already settling in and soaking up all the love he deserves.

A huge thank you to his adopters for choosing to give another shelter pet a loving home. Congratulations, Winston — your happily-ever-after starts now! 🧡🐾
