Kiya Koda Humane Society in Indianola wants families to be smart before adopting pets during holidays George Shillcock, Des Moines Register
Penny, a perky and playful American Pitbull Terrier, has lived at the Kiya Koda Humane Society in Indianola for nearly two years after being rescued and rehabilitated by the shelter.
Julie Skellenger, manager at Kiya Koda, said Penny was used for breeding before coming to the shelter. When she arrived and was spayed, they discovered her body injured because she birthed so many puppies.
She said it s a shame Penny hasn t been adopted yet, but she, like the 100 other animals in the shelter, needs a home.
