Story
I’m off to college, but I’ll be graduating on November 14 and ready for my new home then. I must explain. I was chosen to be a part of the DARR Center Department of Ag Companion Animal Program this semester at MSU in Springfield, MO. You see, I really have gone to college. And, I’m one lucky dog! The students are working with me and 5 of my friends on basic commands and behaviors. I’ll be all polished up and ready for a new family when I’m finished here. If you’d like to meet me in the meantime, we can set up a virtual appointment – otherwise, I’ll be at my graduation ceremony/adoption event on Friday, November 14 just waiting for my forever family to come along. Get ready to break ground on a lifetime of love with this hardworking (and heart-melting) Border Collie mix puppy! I am full of energy, smarts, and affection—ready to help build a forever home. I am sweet, charming, and oh-so-smart. Watch your heart expand—no hard hat required. Adopt me lay the foundation for a lifetime of love! If you're interested in adopting me, fill out an adoption application online at www.polkcountyhumanesociety.org/adopt where you will also find a link to reserve me for an appointment. Some pets are in foster homes or may already have an appointment scheduled, so the appointment is important to make sure I will be available to meet you when you come. Polk County Humane Society is located in Bolivar, Missouri, but also makes transports to the Denver, CO, Des Moines, IA and St. Louis areas twice monthly. For potential adopters in those areas, we can do a virtual visit using FaceTime or another app. Just request an appointment using the same link, but note that you want the visit to be virtual. We will call you at the time of the visit once it is confirmed. For long distance transports to Colorado and Iowa, there is an additional $100 fee to cover the cost of the transport ($65) and a health certificate from a veterinarian ($35). For transports to St. Louis, the additional fee is $50 to help cover gas. Going that last mile home for our sweet pets! All of our pets are neutered or spayed, have vaccinations appropriate for their age, treated with flea/tick/heartworm prevention, dewormed and dogs are also microchipped. #adoptdontshop ##2424236##

Story
Name: Carmella Breed: Border Collie Sex: Female Age: 2 year old Weight: 45 lbs. Carmella has some behavioral needs, and she's available for adoption or through a foster-to-adopt arrangement. Good with dogs? Carmella will need a slow introduction to other dogs Good with cats? No Good with kids? Not tested but based on her behavior with meeting new people we would recommend she go to a kid free home. Energy level: High. Carmella is a driven Border Collie with a strong need for mental stimulation. She would thrive in a home where she has a job to do—bonus points if her adopter is interested in helping her learn how to herd! With her high energy and working-dog instincts, Carmella would love nothing more than a purpose-filled life where she can stay active and engaged. Animal Characteristics: Carmella is a beautiful, sensitive soul searching for someone special to help her shine. This shy girl hasn’t had the easiest start, and she’s still learning to trust the world around her. When meeting new people, Carmella can be fearful— but with patience, structure, and love, she begins to open up. Her ideal home will be with an experienced, compassionate adopter committed to continuing her training and providing slow, gentle introductions to new people and situations. Carmella isn’t the kind of dog who will greet you with tail wags and kisses on day one — but if you give her time and understanding, you’ll earn the love of a truly loyal companion. Please learn more about the adoption process and fill out an application at www.pawsco.org/adopt/adoption-process. I look forward to meeting you!

Story
Ladle is an incredibly sweet, affectionate boy who absolutely loves his people. He came in with another dog friend, but he can be a bit wary when meeting new dogs. He would likely do best with a calm dog who respects his space—or he’d be perfectly happy soaking up all the attention as your one-and-only. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who will shower you with affection every day, Ladle is ready to fill your home (and heart) to the brim.* May be choosy with other dogs - afraid

Story
  Animal Rescue of the Rockies believes every pet should find a wonderful and caring home. To ensure Biscuit #2 finds the best possible home, we ask you fill out our adoption application so we can learn more about you and your household. We review each application in the order submitted and will contact you within 48 hours  (please check your spam folder for our emails) .   Biscuit #2 | 11 weeks | Australian Shepherd Mix with a playful heart Biscuit is an 12-week-old Australian Shepherd mix weighing about 15 pounds, and he’s every bit the happy, confident puppy you’d hope for. This light-brown little guy is playful, affectionate, and loves being close to his people. He enjoys toys, chew bones, and snuggling under the covers, and he has an endearing habit of hiding his toys and resting his head on you when it’s time to relax. Biscuit is very social, loves meeting new people of all ages, and is friendly and outgoing with other dogs. Biscuit is well on his way with house training and already knows to run to the back door when he needs to go outside. During the day he uses a doggie door and does great, with only occasional puppy accidents. Crate training is progressing nicely—he goes in with encouragement, especially since his meals are fed in his open crate, and while he may whine at first, he settles fairly quickly. Covering the crate with a blanket and leaving him a chew helps him feel secure when left alone for a few hours. Like most puppies his age, Biscuit is just beginning leash training and is still taking in the big wide world, preferring to stop and sniff everything along the way. He’s very smart, already knows cues like “sit,” “come,” and “no,” and is highly motivated by food, toys, and affection. He has classic puppy energy, loves to play hard, then happily curls up for cuddles. Biscuit is also in the teething stage, so continued guidance with play biting will be important. Biscuit would thrive in a home with another playful dog or an active family who can give him plenty of attention, structure, and ongoing training. He’s a sweet, snuggly, joyful puppy who is ready to grow up alongside a family committed to all the fun and learning that comes with raising a young dog.   If you and the dog are a good match then we'll connect you with our dog's foster parents to chat more in-depth. If both you and the foster agree that the dog is a good fit then a meet and greet is scheduled. We require applicants' dogs to meet ours to ensure they get along. We'll ask you to read and sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee to complete the adoption when it comes time. Our adoption fees help cover the costs of saving more lives!  A home visit will be scheduled within one week of your new pet going home with you.  The adoption fee for this pet is $450 (includes a $50 refundable puppy training deposit). Our adoption fee covers the following: Spay/neuter Microchip DAPP vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog.  Rabies vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog. Adopters shall be responsible for all vaccinations after adoption. Please fill out an adoption application by clicking  here . Please give us 48 hours to review your application and respond to you. (Remember to check your spam folder for our emails!) We want our pets to go to a lifelong new home, so thank you for your patience during the adoption process! Please email dogs@arrcolorado.org for more information, as we can't accept calls.PLEASE NOTE:  The breed listed is the information we've received from the shelter.  Shelters usually guess at the breed, so there is no guarantee, as we don't DNA test our foster pets.  Here is some interesting info on breed identification:  https://arrcolorado.org/category/puppy-dog-tips/ Our adoption process is: 1. Fill out our Adoption Application online.  We'll contact you within 48 hours to answer any questions you may have about the pet. 2. If the pet looks like a great match, we'll schedule a meet and greet and ask you to fill out our online Adoption Agreement if you'd like to proceed with adopting.  Once you've completed the Adoption Agreement and pay the pet's Adoption Fee, you can arrange to pick up your new furry family member!
