Story
Meet Kendall & Kylie — Two Sweethearts on the Road to Recovery. Kendall and Kylie arrived at Polk County Humane Society after wandering together, clearly bonded and looking for safety. Unfortunately, both girls tested positive for heartworms—a serious but treatable condition. Thanks to our generous donors and veterinary partners, PCHS covers the full cost of their heartworm treatment. But we need adopters or fosters who can commit to the care these girls need during recovery. What Heartworm Treatment Involves: Oral medications administered at home. Veterinary visits for a series of injections. Strict activity restriction for several weeks, including crate rest or confinement to small areas indoors, leash-only potty breaks and outdoor time and no running, jumping, or rough play. This quiet recovery period is essential to ensure the heartworms are safely eliminated without complications. Are you the one who can help one or both of these girls transition from survivors to thrivers? 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 ##2470141##

Story
Meet Simon! Simon is a 4-month-old, 23-pound Husky/Lab mix — and the last of his litter to find a forever home! This handsome boy is bold, curious, and thoughtful in his own way. He likes to take a quick pause before leaping into new adventures, but once he’s decided, there’s no stopping him! Simon is brave, smart, and not shy about asking for what he wants — whether it’s treats, toys, or snuggles. Kisses are his specialty, and he gives them out generously to everyone he meets. When he’s done with his puppy antics, Simon transforms into a total cuddle bug. No pillow fort? No problem — he’ll make one himself! He’s already working on his puppy skills, including going outside for potty breaks, sitting for treats, and learning new commands. He doesn’t sleep through the night just yet, but after a quick potty break and breakfast, he’s happy to snooze again. Simon is equal parts adventure buddy and couch companion — the perfect match for an active family who loves both playtime and cuddle time. If you’re ready to give this sweet boy the forever home he deserves, apply today!
