Poweshiek Animal League Shelter (PALS)
Our Mission
PALS’ mission is to provide care, shelter, and permanent placement for companion animals, to support the spaying and neutering of all pets to prevent overpopulation, and to educate our communities on the humane treatment of animals.

Most dogs over one year old may be adopted for a fee of $175. Most puppies under one year old may be adopted for a fee of $260 ($250 if you pay with cash or check). Most senior dogs may be adopted for a fee of $160 ($150 if you pay with cash or check.)
