Birth Date: 
Adoption Fee: $250.00

Full Description:

Meet Jeanette — a beautiful shepherd girl with the softest eyes and the sweetest soul.

Jeanette came to us as a stray, and the world still feels a little big and overwhelming to her. She’s shy, quiet, and carries that tender “a bit scared of life” look that makes you want to wrap her in a blanket of safety. But behind that timid exterior is a heart full of curiosity and kindness.

Spend a little time with her and you’ll see it — the gentle tail wags, the cautious steps forward, the way she studies you with those deep, soulful eyes. She wants to trust, she wants to bloom, she just needs someone patient enough to show her the world isn’t so scary after all.

Jeanette would thrive in a calm, steady home where she can decompress, explore at her own pace, and learn that love is something she can count on. She’s the kind of dog who will bond deeply once she feels safe, and her quiet sweetness will make her a truly special companion.

If you’re looking for a gentle spirit to nurture and adore, Jeanette is waiting for you — ready to start her next chapter with someone who sees the beauty in her soft, shy heart.

Chips

Name: Chips
Primary Breed: Mixed Breed
Gender: Male
Entry Date: 03/24/26
Birth Date: *04/2023
Adoption Fee: $250.00

Full Description:

Meet Chips 💛

Chips is a tiny 9 lb bundle of gentle love who’s still learning that the world isn’t such a scary place. He’s very shy at first and will need a patient, understanding home willing to give him the time he needs to feel safe. But beneath that timid exterior is a truly sweet soul just waiting to bloom.

He came in as a stray alongside his best friend, Salsa, and the two share a special bond. They take comfort in each other, and Chips would absolutely love to find a home where they can stay together.

When Chips first arrived, he was severely matted and clearly uncomfortable, so he had to get a fresh (and temporary!) haircut to help him feel better. Now that he’s on the mend, he’s starting to show little glimpses of the loving dog he’s meant to be.

Chips may not run up to you right away—but once you earn his trust, the reward is something truly special. A soft, loyal companion who will quietly steal your heart.

If you have a calm home, a kind heart, and maybe room for two sweet pups, Chips (and Salsa!) are waiting 🐾

More details to come.  Please call the Humane Society of North Iowa at 641-423-6241 for more information.

Full Description:

Gilbert is a gentle soul wrapped in a sturdy little pitbull body—a white-coated sweetheart with soft eyes that seem to ask, “Is it okay if I trust you?” Life hasn’t always been kind to him. He came in young, a stray, sticking close to his loyal pal Arnie, unsure of the world but hoping it might finally be safe.

Bashful by nature, Gilbert doesn’t rush into anything. He takes his time, watching, learning, quietly building courage one small step at a time. But behind that timid start is an incredibly loving heart. Once he knows you, he leans in softly, offering the kind of sweetness that feels earned and deeply real.
