Animal Welfare Foundation

Animal Rescue

Animal Welfare Foundation of Iowa is a tax exempt 501(c)(3) organization. We are your neighbors, friends, family and co-workers, pulling together to help alleviate the pain and suffering of stray animals. We realize that the stray dogs in many Iowa counties have no animal shelter to take them in and therefore, have no chance of being adopted. In many areas, strays are held for 7 days and if not claimed, are automatically euthanized. Most strays are not claimed because their families have intentionally abandoned them. Animal Welfare Foundation is working to give these dogs and cats a chance to be adopted into secure, caring homes. Our efforts have saved the lives of homeless animals in the following counties: Jones, Linn, Johnson, Cedar, Poweshiek, Benton, Keokuk and Muscatine.
