Hannah Inc. is proud to operate the Animal Control and the Adoption & Rescue services under contract with the City Of Sioux City, Iowa. There is no "clock" that starts ticking as soon as an animal is brought in - There are some dogs that have been with us for 6 or more months before a suitable home was found, the only dogs that we put to sleep are the ones that come in with a serious injury or dogs that have proven to be vicious, where we cannot, with a clear conscience, place such an animal into a family environment, Absolutely NO animal is put to sleep just because he or she has been with us for a long time! We work very closely with Noah's Hope Animal Rescue, also based here in Sioux City. If we have a dog here for a prolonged period of time without any interest being shown in him or her from the public, we will then often place the dog with "Noahs" who will utilize their extensive contacts and foster families in order to find the dog a loving "Forever Home". When an animal is brought in as a stray, we will initially hold him/her for 7 days, which gives the owner sufficient time to reclaim their pet, any animal which is still here after the "7 day hold" is then placed into our pet adoption program, where we work very hard to find them a new, loving "forever home". WE RE-HOME 100% OF THE ADOPTABLE PETS THAT COME IN TO THE SHELTER - REGARDLESS OF HOW LONG IT TAKES - UNTIL A SUITABLE PLACEMENT IS FOUND, OUR HOME IS THEIR HOME! We also attend many Outreach Events, where we will take animals to remote locations such as Petsmart, where we find homes for many, many cats and dogs.
