Trapper, our gunshot guy is eating, drinking, and sleeping hard. He doesn't want to leave his kennel and is very scared. He wags his tail and is happy to see his foster parents when they bring him treats and sit with him. He has been with us since 10 yesterday morning and by 4 this afternoon had still not gone potty. He was given fluids at the vet yesterday so we knew he had to go. We can't get him to walk for us.
This afternoon we carried him outside and stood him in the grass. He pooped for us and took about 5 steps and peed for a good 3 minutes. Then he layed down again.
We know he is scared of people. We thought another dog might help him move so Rudy came to visit. Rudy layed by him and tried his best to get him to interact with him. Trapper wagged and finally got up. He walked a few steps with Rudy and then layed down again. We carried him back in and will keep working with him until he understands the routine.

Today was a big day for our girl Poppy—she officially went home!

She’s settling in with her brand new family and her new big brother… Puppy. Yes, you read that right—Poppy and Puppy!

Things might get a little confusing for a while (good luck calling them both at the dog park!), but we know these two are going to be the best of friends. Double the names, double the zoomies, and double the love!

Poppy doesn’t have a new name just yet, but whatever it ends up being, she’s already got what matters most: a forever home, a sibling to play with, and a family who adores her.

Congratulations, Poppy! Your happily ever after starts now.

Sweet little Clover has found her forever home today!

From the moment she arrived, Clover stole hearts with her playful spirit, gentle cuddles, and that adorable puppy face. And today, her journey begins with a family her new mom who instantly fell in love and will give her the life every pup dreams of—full of snuggles, treats, and endless adventures.

Clover may be small, but she’s leaving big paw prints on all of our hearts. We’re so excited for this next chapter in her story!

Congratulations, Clover!

When Norman first arrived from the Cedar Rapids shelter, he was just a 40-pound 6 month old puppy. He was underweight, covered in urine stains, and unsure of what love felt like. But look at him now!

Today, Norman is a glowing 65-pound boy, with a coat as bright as his future and a heart full of hope. He’s been adopted into the life he always deserved—one full of love, belly rubs, and the joy of being part of a real family.

Norman now has three furry brothers to show him the ropes of the good life. Wrigley, the Golden Retriever and Bosco & Bear, the playful Micro Goldendoodles

Together, they make the perfect pack, and Norman finally knows what it feels like to be home.

Thank you to everyone who helped get Norman to this point. His transformation is a reminder that every dog deserves a chance—and that love truly changes everything.

We were expecting to take in two dogs today and ended up with three.
This morning at 10 a Bethany Police Officer brought a dog that had been shot to the Bethany Pound. We know this dog has been a stray there for several months and a family was feeding him and trying to make friends with him. He disappeared three weeks ago and showed back up this morning.
Our volunteers Kristi, Rose, and Larry were at the pound to meet him. He was weak, overheated, dehydrated, and still bleeding. The entrance wound on his left shoulder was healing pretty well. The exit wound on his right shoulder was p***y, gooey, and still bleeding a lot. There are no emergency vets in this area. We knew we had to move him to us.
One of our volunteers headed to Des Moines immediately. Rose and Larry got him loaded and also headed to Des Moines.
At 2:45 this afternoon we carried him in to the Anamosa Vet Clinic and Dr. Cassie and tech Bonnie took a look at him.
We named him Trapper. Trapper is just a puppy, maybe 9-10 months old, he weighs 88 pounds and every rib is showing. Trapper had several x-rays, bloodwork, subq fluids, his wounds cleaned and shaved, his ear infections treated, and a lot of ticks pulled off him.
Trapper never growled or snarked, he was a good boy and seemed to know we were trying to help him.
Whoever shot Trapper meant to kill him. Trapper is one lucky guy. The bullet missed his heart, lungs, and didn't fracture any bones. he does have a lot of fragments near the exit wound but nothing life threatening. Trapper got antibiotics and pain meds and went to his foster home.
Dr. Cassie told us to bathe him and get as much of the blood and puss cleaned off as we could. Trapper didn't mind his bath and we pulled many more ticks off him.
Trapper sleeping on a soft bed in the air conditioning. He is is drinking and has eaten two meals. He is starting to wag his tail once when his foster parents come in. We expect him to sleep a lot for the next week as his body recovers from this trauma.
Tonight we are thankful for our team of volunteers and for already overloaded foster parents who won't turn an emergency away. Trapper is going to be a different dog in a few weeks.

👑 Meet Queen – The Hug-Demanding Diva You Never Knew You Needed 👑
Age: 9 years young
Weight: 58 pounds of pure love
Breed: Boxer (and part-time stand-up comedian)
Do you ever wish your dog loved you just a little too much? Well, buckle up, because Queen is here to meet all your emotional support AND personal space invasion needs. She’s been waiting a whole YEAR for her forever kingdom – er, home – and she’s not giving up until she finds her royal subjects.
Queen has one rule: you must hug her. Not optional. If you try to ignore her, she’ll launch herself into your arms like a furry torpedo and wrap her paws around you until you comply. Resistance is futile. Hugs now, questions later.
She’s great with kids (tiny humans love royalty), adores adults (especially the hug-friendly ones), and can outlast puppies in the Zoomie Olympics. That’s right – this 9-year-old wonder woman regularly puts 6-month-old pups to shame with her energy. Age is just a number, darling.
Queen is a velcro dog. Whatever you’re doing, she’s doing. Whether it's walking, road-tripping, or supervising your snack choices, she will be by your side with a look that says, “You’re doing great, sweetie.”
She gets along with other dogs but would absolutely thrive as the center of attention. (What can we say? She likes the spotlight. She's earned it.) A physically fenced yard is a must for her royal zoomies, and in winter, she expects a wardrobe that reflects her regal status. Hoodies are non-negotiable.
Queen has waited a long time for someone to say, "You're mine." Could that be you?
Queen is housetrained, spayed, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and heartworm tested.
If you would like to meet Queen, please complete the adoption application on our website: www.furfunrescue.org. If you have questions about Queen you can contact [email protected] or call 319-929-6657.

🚨ALERT: Adorable Beagle on the Loose (Well, Almost...)
Name: Hopper
Age: 2 years
Weight: 22 lbs of pure snoot-powered curiosity
Do you enjoy being followed around by a short, floppy-eared detective who has absolutely zero chill when he spots a squirrel, a leaf, or a suspicious-looking garden gnome? Then meet Hopper—your new pint-sized security system with built-in snuggles.
Hopper is a classic Beagle: nose to the ground, voice in the sky. If he sees something, he says something. Mailman? Bark. Butterfly? Bark. Shadow of his own tail? Yup—bark.
He plays well with other dogs, entertains himself with toys, and moonlights as a bed hog next to his foster mom. (Yes, he sleeps in bed. No, he doesn’t share the covers.) He’s independent and affectionate, like the perfect mix between a toddler and a roommate who eats your snacks.
He’s named "Hopper" for a reason—this guy has ups! Keep your counters clean, or you may find your sandwich has mysteriously vanished. He’s not sorry. He never regrets snacks.
Hopper is looking for a home with a physically fenced yard (so he can do zoomies safely), and with humans around most of the time—he thrives on companionship and attention. Basically, if you’re looking for a buddy to follow you from the bathroom to the fridge to the couch... he's your guy.
Are you ready to live with 22 pounds of bouncing, barking, bed-hogging Beagle chaos? Apply now. Hopper’s nose says this is meant to be.
Hopper is housetrained, neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and microchipped.
If you would like to meet Hopper, please complete the adoption application on our website: www.furfunrescue.org. If you have questions about Hopper you can contact [email protected] or call 319-929-6657.

Norman’s story began at Cedar Rapids Animal Care and Control, where he arrived underweight and neglected — his white coat stained yellow and his frame a mere 40 pounds. But with some TLC, good food, and a safe place to heal, Norman has transformed into a healthy, beautiful 7-month-old Great Pyrenees, now weighing 60 pounds and full of life.
Norman is truly the sweetest boy. He adores both adults and kids and absolutely lives for affection. If you stop petting him too soon, he’ll gently offer his paw to let you know he’s not done soaking up the love. He’s playful without being overly energetic — the perfect mix of fun and chill. He enjoys toys, bones, and cozying up with his favorite people.
This smart pup already knows how to sit and walks wonderfully on a leash. He enjoys daily strolls and would thrive in a home with a physically fenced yard where he can safely run and explore. Norman would also love the companionship of another friendly dog to play and bond with.
If you're looking for a loyal, affectionate companion with a heart as big as his paws, Norman is ready to bring joy and love into your life.
Norman is housetrained, neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and microchipped.

This pint-sized sweetheart was born on March 25, 2025, and at just 12 weeks old, she’s already stealing hearts. Weighing around 5 pounds, Poppy is likely to remain a small dog when full-grown—our best guess is a Corgi and Terrier mix, giving her both charm and s***k in a compact package.
Poppy is full of curiosity and playful energy. She’s fascinated by the world around her and always ready to chase a toy or explore something new. Whether she’s bouncing around the yard or investigating a new sound, Poppy approaches life with wide-eyed wonder and wagging tail.
She’s doing wonderfully with house training for her age and thrives in a routine. Poppy is looking for a patient, loving home that will guide her with positive reinforcement and help her grow into a confident, well-mannered pup.
She’s already spayed, microchipped, dewormed, and has received her first distemper/parvo booster. Her new family will need to complete her vaccine schedule with two additional boosters and her rabies shot at 16 weeks.
If you're looking for a fun, affectionate companion who will brighten every day, Poppy is ready to hop into your heart and home!
If you would like to meet Poppy, please complete the adoption application on our website: www.furfunrescue.org. If you have questions about the puppies you can contact [email protected] or call 319-929-6657.

Born on March 25, 2025, this sweet 12-week-old pup is one of three in her litter. Weighing in at just 6 pounds, Clover is expected to stay small when fully grown—likely a charming mix of Corgi and Terrier.
Clover is a true people pup! Her whole body wiggles with joy when she sees you, and she loves nothing more than being your little shadow. Whether you're working, relaxing, or out for a stroll, Clover wants to be right by your side.
She’s off to a great start with her house training and is looking for a family committed to continuing her socialization and training using positive reinforcement methods. With patience, love, and structure, she’s going to be a wonderful companion.
Clover is already spayed, microchipped, dewormed, and has received the first of her three required distemper/parvo boosters. Her future family will be responsible for completing her vaccine series, including two more distemper/parvo shots and her rabies vaccine at 16 weeks.
If you're ready to welcome a joyful, loyal little pup into your life, Clover may be the perfect match!

06/16/2025

Just over four weeks ago, sweet Gracie came to us from Cedar Rapids Animal Care and Control in heartbreaking condition — weighing only 32 pounds and severely emaciated.

Her incredible foster mom sprang into action, feeding Gracie multiple meals a day and even waking up in the middle of the night to give her extra food, because Gracie was so hungry she couldn’t sleep. That kind of love and care changed everything.

Today, Gracie is unrecognizable from the girl we first met — healthy, happy, and thriving at a strong 44 pounds! And even better, she’s officially found her forever family! 🏡✨

She met her new family on Saturday morning and clearly decided they were her people. By Sunday night, her new parents made it official. Gracie was so excited to explore her new toy box and play fetch, she didn’t even pause to say goodbye to her foster mom — she was ready to start her new life.

Gracie’s journey is a powerful reminder of the difference love, patience, and second chances can make.

Congratulations to Gracie and her amazing new family — and a huge thank you to her foster mom for helping her heal. The best is yet to come.
