Story
My name is Buddy and I am a brown & white chihuahua sh. I am an intact male (I will be neutered before I am adopted) and I am 2 years old. I am here because I was given up by my owner on 05/15/2026 due to the fact my owner was not able to afford to take care of me. They were my family for 1-3 months. They got me from my previous person, who was an elderly man who had to go to a nursing home.I am used to staying inside during the day and inside during the night. I am still learning how to be potty trained. Once the shelter takes care of my neuter surgery, that will help a lot. Little dogs like me just need some consistency and someone who`s around a lot because we have itty bitty bladders.I am a medium energy dog and I can live with an owner with no prior pet owning experience. I am used to staying in crates when I am alone or need to be safely contained. I generally walk nicely on the leash but will pull/tug if I see something or someone I want to check out. I would do well with simple obedience training to help us bond and for us to learn how to communicate with each other. I do not have a history of trying to escape the home or yard, but the shelter staff always recommends owners be mindful that I do not accidentally get out a door or escape the yard. I do not need a fenced yard, it`s always nice be nice to have one so I can run free in a safe space! I can be good with men, women, and children. and I can be good with other dogs.

Story
Meet Bootcut, Skinny and Relaxed. Born to our stylish mama Jordache, this trio of trendsetting pups is ready to strut their stuff straight into your heart. Each one comes with their own signature “fit,” stitched together with sweetness, silliness, and plenty of puppy charm. They’re the perfect blend of style and snuggle, ready to grow into loyal companions who fit your life just right. 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 ##2682252##
