Rural Iowa Animal Rescue - Rowley Pet Shelter

We are the Rural Iowa Animal Rescue, a non-profit rescue organization that strives to rehab and rehome any horse or farm animal that is in need. We are a foster home based group, so all of our animals are in foster homes and not at a shelter. They receive the daily love and care that our foster homes give to their own animals. This process makes it less stressful on the animals and allows them to be loved during their time at the rescue. We are a small rescue and don't have the resources or capabilities to take in a lot of horses at a time. If we cannot help we will help find you someone that can. The horses at our rescue receive regular vet and farrier care and are given grain daily (unless its against the vets orders). The animals are handled daily and are given one on one attention. If a horse is not trained we begin the training process and if an animal is shy and unsure, we will work with it to teach it trust and companionship. We do take in a number of horses that are thin and malnourished. These WILL NOT under any circumstances be adopted out before they have been fully rehabbed. The rehabbing process is a stressful and long process that involves our collaboration with the vets and farriers. We want to make sure the animal is in the best condition it can be when it goes to its new home. Our organization relies solely on donations. We do not receive any funding from the county, state, or government of any kind. This is why we must ask for donations when we get an animal in that has needs that go above and beyond our usual vet care expenses. All donations go to the care of the animals. There is no one in the rescue that receives pay or benefits of any sort. We are all volunteers! We have a great group of volunteers that make this rescue function. We have some new volunteers on board that have expanded our expertise and knowledge base and we are excited to have them aboard!
