Story
Hank is a 6 month old terrier mixed with some basset or corgi we think because of his short legs, big paws and long body. Hank has the sweetest face. He came to us from Oklahoma with a bad case of kennel cough but after treatment, doing so much better better. He is about 25 lbs and guessing he will be a medium sized dog. Hank loves his foster people and the foster dogs in his home. He loves to chase, get the zoomies, play tug of war and steal your shoes- he’s an absolute puppy. But Hank is the biggest lover. He loves to cuddle, sleep in bed, lay next to a human or his dog bed. Hank does go in his kennel while his foster parents are at work and he’s doing so great on potty training, he sits by the door when he needs to go out now. Hank loves to go for walks and walks very nicely on his leash. He does have a very deep loud hound bark when he passes other dogs. Hank is a little shy when meeting new people, especially small kids. But once he warms up to you, you’ve got a permanent shadow. Hank would thrive in a home with another dog but not a must if his humans are prepared to play, walk him and help him exert his energy then enjoy his snuggles when he crashes.All adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots. Senior dogs, at our discretion, are adopted out at $150 per dog because we know they will have less time with your family and may eventually have more needs as they get older. But we feel these dogs deserve to live out the rest of their lives as part of a loving family.

Meet Candy! 🍬 Candy is as sweet as her name and just as delightful once you get to know her. This petite 2-year-old wirehaired dachshund mix may be a bit shy when first meeting new people, but with patience and kindness, she blossoms into the most loving, devoted companion. Candy would do best in a calm, understanding home where she can build confidence at her own pace. Once she feels safe, she loves with her whole heart—especially when it comes to snuggling! She’s fully house trained, enjoys leash walks, and is a joy to have around the house. She gets along well with other dogs and cats, making her a great fit for many households. Candy has made wonderful progress in her foster home and now happily greets her people with excitement when they walk through the door. And if you want to win her over quickly, chicken treats are the way to her heart!

Story
Nora was found as a stray and is an 8-year-old sweetheart who's all about love and affection. She enjoys being close to her people, soaking up pets, and sharing quiet, happy moments. Gentle, loving, and easygoing, Nora would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a calm, affectionate friend to call their own.  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##
