AHeinz57 Pet Rescue & Transport

Saving furry lives one car load at a time.

Amy Heinz: Founder - President & Director

Hi!  Thank you for wanting to get to know us!

Dogs have been my passion since I was a child.  My goal in life is to work with rescue dogs full-time.  I am a certified dog trainer which will aid me in helping rescue dogs become more adoptable. The only thing currently stopping me from reaching my goals is my mortgage.  Therefore, by weekday, I am a paralegal at Wells Fargo Bank.  By night and weekend, I am the proud human companion to 5 dogs and 6 cats that share my home.  We live on a small acreage in Adel, Iowa, where we host many overnight fur guests and foster dogs

Please join me in my mission to save furry lives by helping in one of the following ways: 
1) Become a foster family for AHeinz57 Pet Rescue & Transport; 2) Become a transport volunteer; or 3) Donate funds or supplies to our cause.

Please contact me at
aheinz@aheinz57.com.

Thank you for visiting our website!

Kathy McGee - Vice President & Co-Director of Transport Program

I am also a paralegal with Wells Fargo.  The day job pays the bills, but I would prefer to spend my days with dogs.  Although I love them all, BIG Dogs are my passion!  In addition to my 2 BIG dogs, I have recently rescued/adopted Tobey, a male Golden Retriever, that was used for breeding purposes at a puppy mill.  It is truly horrific and unacceptable the way these dogs are abused in the puppy mills. 

Please join us and help us make a difference for these wonderful companions!  You can contact me at kmcgee@aheinz57.com.
