Safe Haven of Iowa County

Nice people! Very helpful A great experience. Stand behind their doggies! Brought Nelson home and they reassured me they'd be there if I needed. I feel like family!

Our local animal shelter here is an absolute blessing! Not only do they work so hard to provide housing and find homes for animals in need but they also do their very best to help our community to get the cat population under control throughout the trap and release program where they get them fixed.

I filled the application, sent references, visited with Mary, Kim and Kathy. Totally professional, interpersonally kind. During my call from Kim a visit was allowed to meet my new dog I found online on a Sunday afternoon. This is a compassionate and very responsibly run organization from the top down. I met my new Coonhound today for the first time meet and greet. There is a spirit there that is warm and helpful to the pet you are selecting and you the new owner. I am proud to have found SAFE HAVEN as I did. You live up to your name “SAFE HAVEN”. I could palpably sense this as I entered for my appointment. Thank you! During this time of searching it should be profoundly noted how well you do what you do. More awareness needs to be spoken for how warmly you voluntarily go about pet
