Story
Meet Ruby! This sweet young lady is everything wrapped up in one adorable little package. Ruby was rescued from a hoarding situation where she lived with many dogs in a small apartment with very little human interaction. Because of that, the world is still new to her — but she’s learning every day that it can be a safe and happy place. Ruby bonds easily with other dogs and truly thrives with canine companionship. She looks to other dogs for comfort and guidance, and meeting new dog friends is her absolute favorite thing! A confident, friendly dog in her forever home would help her continue to blossom. If you’re looking for a dog who instantly bonds with people, Ruby may not be your girl just yet. She needs a patient, loving, and understanding home that will give her the time and space to build trust at her own pace. Once she feels safe, you’ll see her sweet and silly personality shine. Ruby may be slow to trust, but she’s incredibly observant and learns quickly. From chasing her own shadow to hopping up on her hind legs to catch a moth, her goofy curiosity and innocent spirit will absolutely melt your heart. With patience, love, and a cozy spot to curl up at night, Ruby will grow into the most loyal and devoted companion. Local adoption only $200 (in TX)

Story
Meet Checkers, a gentle soul who is looking for a quiet place to land. Checkers recently lost his lifelong companion, and while his world has changed quite a bit, his capacity for love hasn't. He is a sweet boy who is currently looking for a patient heart to help him find his confidence again. He can be a bit temperamental when he feels overwhelmed or pushed too fast. He’s not being naughty—he’s just a little guy in a big world who likes things done on his terms! 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 ##2704339##

Tango

Chihuahua Terrier (Unknown Type, Small)

Male, 9 yrs
Bridgeton, MO
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Tango is a gentle 9-year-old terrier mix weighing just 12 pounds, with a heart that craves love and connection—on his own terms. He adores attention and affection and is happiest when his person sits nearby, talks to him, and showers him with gentle love. While he isn’t a lapdog, Tango enjoys being close and feeling included. Tango also appreciates his independence and likes having time to himself. He’s perfectly content relaxing quietly on his own, making him a great match for a calm household that respects his need for personal space. He enjoys life’s simple pleasures: going outside and laying in the sun, chewing on bully sticks and other chewies, and playing with toys—especially ones that make noise or have squeakers. Tango would enjoy regular walks and, as long as he’s walked frequently and monitored on a leash, he does not require a fenced yard. He should not be left unsupervised outside. Tango gets along well with other dogs, particularly those his own size, and would do well in a home with or without other dogs. He’s happy sharing space but doesn’t demand constant interaction. At night, Tango snuggles into his comfy doggie bed in his foster mom’s bedroom and sleeps quietly through the night. While other dogs may climb into the big bed, Tango prefers his own cozy spot—comforted simply by knowing his person is nearby. With his peaceful temperament, gentle affection, and independent streak, Tango would thrive in a quiet, loving home where companionship is balanced with respect for his space. If you’re looking for a sweet senior dog who offers calm devotion without being clingy, Tango is ready to find his forever home. Tango is neutered, up to date on all his vaccinations, is heartworm negative and on heartworm preventative. He’s had a dental, is microchipped and dewormed. Tango’s adoption fee is $300. Out of state adopters are responsible for arranging transport. WE DO NOT SHIP DOGS. If you're looking for a very sweet and lovable little guy to join your family, please fill out an application on AAP’s website.

Chihuahua

Male, 1 yr
Bridgeton, MO

Story
At just one year old, Ollie is seven pounds of pure devotion and love. This little chihuahua adores his person and wants nothing more than to be included in all the fun things that are happening. Ollie loves getting pets and lap time but is also content to snuggle up in a cozy dog bed near his person. Ollie does well with other calm pups and enjoys engaging in some gentle play and chase games with them but has definite opinions about other pups trying to share his food (Not Gonna Happen). Ollie enjoys a good game of fetch, does pretty well during walks (big loud vehicles driving by are scary though), and is good during car rides (though he would really like to sit on your lap while doing so). He’s currently working through potty training. Ollie does pretty well using potty pads, but is not always perfect. He will potty outside but is not always quick about it and if it is raining outside… well it’s safe to say it will be a potty pad day. A home with a fenced yard may be better suited for him as he seems to prefer time to explore in order to find the best place to potty. Ollie is looking for a home where he will be a big part of the family. An adult household and/or a family with older dog savvy children would be a good fit. Ollie is neutered, up to date on all vaccines, on heartworm preventative, de-wormed, and microchipped. Ollie’s adoption fee is $400.00. Please go to our website aaprescue.org to learn about our adoption process.
