You silly colorful Jelly Bean
With an aura of red, yellow & green
Your “forever” will take you for a “cheeseburger- no onion”
And they will laugh when they see that you’re the “fun one”
They’ll pack your cookies in a neat little row
And say “Come on you cute little nugget, it’s time to go!!!”

Name: Dena
Primary Breed: Bull Terrier mix
Gender: Female
Entry Date: 12/22/22
Birth Date: 03/07/21
Adoption Fee: $200.00
Full Description: Hi I’m Dena. I am a one-of-a-kind beautiful girl. Aren’t these the cutest ears you have ever seen? Well let’s just say that no one will ever sneak a snack without me knowing about it. I was recently brought in as a stray and staff was unable to find my previous family. I can be shy and take time warming up to new friends, but once we’re BFFs, we’re BFFs for life! My shyness aside, staff is learning that I’m a big lover if you’re patient. In my new home it may take me some time to settle in. If you give me a shot, you will see my true colors and just how amazing I really am. I get along well with other dogs and enjoy having a friend. To learn more about me give staff a call. Please call the Humane Society of North Iowa at 641-423-6241 for more information.
Adoption fee covers the following veterinarian services: spay/neuter surgery, age appropriate vaccinations, flea and dewormer treatment, feline leukemia/FIV test in cats, and heartworm test for dogs.
A special volunteer wrote this poem for Dena
You’ll hear that treat bag crinkle with those radar ears
Before ya know it you’ll be the envy of all your peers
You will be the stand out in a very large crowd
I want her I love her they’ll scream out loud
So listen be patient and sit real still
