What WeRescue Scout knows about Kirby

Kirby thrives with a patient, experienced owner who can work around his vision loss and occasional accidents, ideally in a single-level home or one with just a few steps. He'd be happiest with another understanding dog companion and a routine that keeps him grounded, and he absolutely needs a household without young children.

Good to know
  • Vision loss requires a single-level or minimal-stair home layout
  • Not suitable for households with young children (jumps and paws when greeting)
  • Occasional housetraining accidents; needs regular outdoor schedule
  • History of food-bowl guarding; requires kennel-feeding routine
May not suit homes with young kids Good with other dogs Good with cats Moderate energy estimated Knows some basics estimated Some pet experience helps Adaptable to apartment life estimated Very affectionate Low-maintenance coat estimated Low shedding estimated Has special needs Has ongoing medical needs

Last Hope Animal Rescue

Rescue

Last Hope Animal Rescue, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Formed in March of 2004, we are an all volunteer animal rescue group comprised of foster homes in the greater Cedar Rapids area. Many of our animals come from local kill shelters, as their time has run out due to any number of reasons including lack of space, not deemed adoptable, special needs, etc. Our purpose is to save as many homeless, abused, abandoned, hard to place, neglected animals that we can and to place as many animals as possible into loving, forever homes where they will be cherished.

Address Cedar Rapids, IA 52404
Service Areas Cedar Rapids, Iowa City Linn County, Benton County, Johnson County and Beyond
Adoption Process
Prior to adoption, all of our dogs have been tested for heartworm, current on vaccinations, micro-chipped, and spayed or neutered, if age appropriate. Our adoption process includes reference and background checks, a vet check and home visit. The adoption fee for dogs and puppies varies. Prior to adoption, our cats have been tested for feline leukemia, current on vaccinations, micro-chipped, and spayed or neutered, if age appropriate. If at the time of adoption, the kitten is too young to be spayed or neutered, an agreed upon time frame will be set for when this procedure is to be done. Spaying or neutering is not an optional procedure, it is required of all animals we rescue. The adoption fee for cats and kittens varies.
