Pup Of The Month
One Pup in our Rescue we spotlight for a month
Sabrina
Sabrina is a sweet, gentle girl who can steal your heart with her eyes! She loves walks, car rides, and generally just being with her person. She is very intelligent and learns quickly. She is fully house trained, obedient, playful, very calm in the house, with an occasional spunk, and a snuggler! She will lay her head on your lap and hug you with her paws. Sabrina needs to be the only dog or be with dogs who are her size or larger. She does not get along with small dogs.

Happy Tails
They're a waggin'
Muggles joined our family at two months of age in February of 2009 after being born in December of 2008 in a K9 Kindness foster home. They had rescued Muggles’ mother - Annie - and father - Aussie - after they were surrendered to the group. We are so blessed that Debbie ended up selected our home out of many applications to adopt Muggles. She is the most kind, gentle, happy dog I have ever experienced.

We adopted Arnie from K9 Kindness Rescue many years ago so that our other younger Boston Terrier would have someone to play with and our older dog could have a bit of a break. While he is not considered to be a "working breed" Arnie is diligent about going to work with me each day. Here is a photo of him working at his desk. We are so fortunate to have him in our lives.

We were drawn to Buster after viewing a video of him. He was a big lug, playing in the snow with tiny puppies. During the home visit I was apprehensive because he was a head taller sitting than our son was standing! But after he spent the next several minutes licking him we were sold! He's been the perfect addition to our family. He's approaching 10 years old and spends his days napping, snoring (loudly) and snuggling. He's just a big lover and we love him!

I was looking for a dog on Petfinder when I saw Molly. Next thing I knew, I was filling out the adoption paperwork. After a home inspection I met her at PetCo along with her foster mom. Love at first sight! She is such a blessing to me! We walk every day at her insistence. In winter we go to New Mexico and walk some more. She's brought adventure into my life with occasional rabbit or squirrel that dare venture into her yard. I love her to the moon and back!

Former adopter and mayor of Coralville, IA, John Lundell with one of the dogs he adopted from K9 Kindness. Wally was found in the parking lot of Wal-Mart in Davenport. A car was seen with someone dumping him and speeding off. And now he’s the co-first pup (with his sister, Muggles) of Coralville! Go Hawks!

Mable came to us from Sioux City, IA. She was not fond of other dogs, but quickly took over the household of her foster parents, who adopted Mabel. She now lives the good life in South Dakota, where her family moved a few months ago!

Debbie F.
President
Co-founded the organization in 2004 and for some reason has not lost all of her sanity yet. But we're working on it.
Katey B.
Treasurer & Vice President
Assumed the position as co-insane person in 2016. She writes the checks and stares at the books. A real pointer.
Sue R.
Secretary
Brought onto the board in 2017 for her uncanny ability to do an accurate impersonation of Brenda Lee's "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree."
Michael F.
Interim Intellectual Property Admin
Has been with the group in some form since 2004. Finds it strange to talk about himself in the third person.

About Us
We're crazy about dogs. Really. We love dogs, right down to the point that they boss us around. But likewise, our aim and goal is to make sure that they have loving and forever homes. We've been around the block and seen a lot of different fire hydrants. Including that REALLY yellow one. Ask your dog, he knows the one.
If you have questions about other stuff or just want to inquire about our day to day stuff, please feel free to use the contact form on the left.
