Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Reeses A Sweet and Spunky Treat Just Waiting to Be Unwrapped! Don not let the name fool you Reeses is not just a snack, she is the whole meal. This 2 year old mixed breed beauty has been waiting far too long for her forever home, and it is time she finally got her happy ending. Reeses is full of energy, personality, and love she is the type of dog who plays hard, loves big, and will keep you laughing with her goofy zoomies and expressive face. She is a strong gal who enjoys rough and tumble play, so she would do best in a home with older kids who can keep up with her fun, bouncy energy. She is a bit picky about her canine companions we get it, girl standards matter, she prefers to be your one and only pup. A secure fenced yard is a must so she can safely run, play, and show off her Olympic level fetch skills. Reeses has been with us for quite a while through no fault of her own and she has more than ready to trade in shelter life for couch cuddles, squeaky toys, and a family to call her own. If you have got room in your heart and yard for a one of a kind companion, come meet Reeses. She is sweet, a little nutty, and totally unforgettable. For more information on how to adopt, please call the shelter at 863 324 5227 to see if this pet is still available for adoption. Then come to the shelter for a meet and greet. We are open 10:30 to 6 Tuesday through Friday, Saturday from 10:30 to 4 closed 1-2 for lunch and the last Friday of every month.

More about this shelter
The Humane Society of Polk County is a non-profit organization funded solely by public donations. The Humane Society is the first no-kill animal shelter in Polk County! The society is a community service dedicated to prevent animal suffering. We care for unwanted, abused and abandoned animals and provide many other animal related services.
The organization was chartered in 1972 and the shelter was built in 1980. Our shelter is currently located in Winter Haven on Dundee Road. The shelter usually has twenty five dogs and thirty five cats in residence. Each year our number of animals fluctuates our last fiscal year over two thousand animals were taken in. All accepted animals are spayed or neutered, provided with shots, heart worm tested or feline leuk tested, de-wormed, micro-chipped, provided a physical exam by a local veterinarian and given comfortable shelter, food and water. These animals are given a great deal of TLC by a caring staff. Occasionally wildlife is accepted, but in general we try to turn these over to other agencies better equipped to handle them. Abused horses are also cared for on the premises.
Every day in the United States, more than 70,000 puppies and kittens are born. When this number is compared to the 10,000 human births each day, it’s clear that there can never be enough homes for all these pets. Educating the public on the importance of spaying and neutering their pets, from school children to adult groups, is one of our organization’s prime objectives. Educational programs are available upon request. We offer a low cost spay/neuter program at our shelter to provide our community a reasonable solution to the senseless slaughter of innocent animals.
At the Humane Society each animal will be observed and evaluated before going up for adoption. Health and temperament are closely evaluated by our vet and temperament specialist. We view euthanasia with mixed emotions. That animals must be killed is a difficult burden to bear; but diseased, frightened or injured animals trying to survive in a hostile community are infinitely worse. The Humane Society is the first “No- Kill” Animal Rescue Shelter in Polk County. Our desire is to make our community a “no kill” community, one in which we kill the crisis, not the animal.
