Story
Hi, I'm Nora! I'm an 8 year old girl that is special needs. I have diabetes insipidus which you can read more about online but basically it is not treated with insulin. Currently I am on a medication for it twice daily and it seems to be helping. I'm a sweet girl but not a fan of other animals so I'm looking to be your one and only. What do you say? Take a senior girly home and love me forever.  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 ##2620129##

Story
Q LOVEs: couch buddy, walk on leash, hike off leash, returns when called, car rides, dog parks, potty trained, all shots current, healthy, 17lb, 10yrs He came to me 2yrs ago, was considered "challenging dog" - I took him bc I'm a vanlifer and could provide time/energy to train him. We've done well, now ready for a home that can give him a bit more space than a van (apt/house both are great) CURRENT NEEDS: some body handling sensitivity remains. For washing him, walk in shower is great. He doesn't like nail trims and tooth brushing, but loves dental treats! I'm happy to share all I've learned. He will do amazing w someone who is willing to build trust and continue train. TRANSPARENCY: he has bit me in very early stage bc I tried to bathe him w/o proper knowledge. He now enjoys warm shower on his body bc I educated myself. It's often the humans, not the dogs!

Story
Meet Cleo the Chi Weenie! She needs someone that is patience and will give her time to settle into a home as she came from a hoarder and the world is a scary place. It only takes her a few days to settle in and be her playful self! She is super a happy girl just gets a little nervous sometimes She is good with other dogs and cats! She is not fully potty trained yet and will need to continue using a crate and working on this so she understands that we dont potty inside anymore. She’s doing well with a structured routine with crate time immediately followed by outside time. Using a crate is a requirement for her to be successful in continuing the no potty inside rule Everyday she comes out of her shell more and more! She loves to play with the other little dog in the home and cuddle up on the couch She is such a sweet little girl that is only going to continue to grow High level notes from her dog trainer foster: -literal perfection on leash -gets a little nervy passing ppl/dogs on walks but I think it’s just new for her -figuring out potty training -loves treats and scarfs up her meals -loves chasing balls, very spazzy and playful -sassy little thing, can be a little barky when she wants something but figuring out quickly it doesn’t work -some fomo when left fully alone but works through it pretty quick -shy with ppl but worst she does is freeze up All POSO Dogs come with: - Spayed/Neutered - Basic Shots (age appropriate) - Fecal and 4dx testing - other medical concerns addressed before adoption - 2 Free one on one dog training sessions with a professional dog trainer - Training received in foster home - Basic things like some food, treats, leash and collar - PDFs of training material and local coupons and dog sitter recommendations

Story
Otto Corgi/ Jack Russel Mix - 10 months - 34lbs Playgroup - https://youtube.com/shorts/9eVOsvrtamk?feature=share Otto is a 10 month old neutered terrier mix weighing 34 pounds of scruffy charm. This adorable low rider has short little legs, a big smile, and an even bigger heart. At first he can be a bit shy, but underneath that cautious exterior is a total undercover lover just waiting to shine. Once Otto warms up, he is incredibly sweet and affectionate. He loves giving kisses and will happily lean in for attention from the people he trusts. He is food motivated and especially has a soft spot for hotdogs, which makes winning him over a pretty easy task. With a little patience and a few tasty treats, you will quickly see his loving personality blossom. Otto does well with other dogs and would really enjoy having another dog in the home to help him continue building confidence. He walks nicely on leash, enjoys car rides, and carries a gentle, easygoing nature that makes him a wonderful companion. This scruffy little guy may be short in stature, but he has a heart full of love to give. Otto is looking for a patient and kind home where he can feel safe, continue to grow in confidence, and finally be cherished for the sweet boy he is.

Story
Hi! My name is Diesel. I'm pretty fearful with new people and take some time warming up. I'm also pretty head shy and being leashed by new people can make me pretty scared. Once I warm up an get to know you I become very sweet and affectionate. I would do better with older children (14+) due to my fear and sensitivities around my head. I have had great home history with dogs but since I've been fearful we recommend you bring your pup to meet me! I would probably not do well in a house with cats since I have history of chasing them. Please come meet me today!March 2, 2026, 7:51 pm
