Story
I got my dog from a lady who rescued it from another lady. She was born March 2024. I’m looking for a home that can help her with her anxiety, and be there more than us. We work way too much. She is wild, hyper, smart. She does have a bit of separation anxiety.

Story
Hi my name is Judd and I’m just a young friendly pup.  Can you believe someone dumped me in a bean field in Hayti Mo and left me there, all alone.  Lucky for me someone found me and took care of me and then contacted Needy Paws and they rescued me, so I’m safe now. I am house-trained, comfortable in a crate, and interact well with other dogs.  I would love to be part of your family. If you are interested, complete the  Adoption Application  on our website at  www.NeedyPaws.org  and we will contact you.  Adopters must live within an hour’s drive of St. Louis, MO. Judd’s adoption fee is $295.00, which includes up-to-date vaccinations, heartworm testing and preventative, spay/neuter and microchip. We are a 100% foster-based rescue and all of our dogs live in approved foster homes. We are dedicated to finding the best Forever Homes, and will perform home visits and conduct veterinarian and reference checks for each potential adopter.

Story
Seren Sadie is currently enrolled in the 12 week Puppies 4 Parole program through the Mo Department of Corrections.  She will graduate around January 15th and will be available for adoption at that time.  If you are interested in adopting Seren Sadie, please complete an application and the foster parent will contact you. Meet Seren Sadie a medium sized girl with a beautiful reddish coat. She is dog friendly and would love to have a dog friend in her new home. Sadie has not been cat tested, so not sure how she would do with cats. SHe would do great with older considerate kids.   Sadie has medium energy. She likes being outside, but wants her person to be outside with her. Sadie also enjoys walks, and does walk well with a harness.   House and crate trained. She prefers being crated at night near her people. If you would allow her to sleep with you even better.   Sadie rides quietly in the car. Sadie does have some stranger danger, and is leery around new people at first. She does best when visitors just ignore her and let her come to them on her terms. She does bark at new people and sounds, so may not do well in a apartment setting    Sadie is a really sweet dog but needs someone who will be patient with her and give her time to trust her new family. Once Sadie is comfortable with you, she will be your shadow. She is not much of a snugglier, but does like to be near you. Sadie really likes chicken as a treat, which can be used to build trust. With time and treats Sadie will be the perfect companion!     If you are interested, complete the  Adoption Application  on our website at  www.NeedyPaws.org  and we will contact you.  Adopters must live within an hour’s drive of St. Louis, MO. Seren Sadie’s adoption fee is $295.00, which includes up-to-date vaccinations, heartworm testing and preventative, spay/neuter and microchip.

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org 🎀✨ Meet Cindy Lou — Your Future Walking, Wagging Bundle of Joy ✨🎀 At just 10 months old, Cindy Lou is already proving she’s less “puppy” and more full-blown heart thief. With her beautiful coat, bright eyes, and joyful puppy energy, she’s the kind of dog who makes strangers smile and friends ask, “Okay but where did you find her?” Cindy Lou is sweet, playful, affectionate, and delightfully goofy — the total package. She adores her people (big and small), though she’s still learning how to contain her enthusiasm when giving love, so older kiddos might be her perfect match. Her affection comes in enthusiastic tail wags, happy hops, and the occasional “oops, I love you too much” moment. She’s great with other dogs and would love a canine sidekick for zoomie sessions and shared mischief. Cats? She’s young, adaptable, and open to negotiations — terms TBD. Outdoorsy? Even a little bit? Cindy Lou is ready. She’s got that “where are we going next?” energy wrapped in puppy curiosity and confidence. Ranch walks? Check. Trails? Absolutely. Puddle splashing like it’s a competitive sport? Gold medal performance. Off leash, she checks in like a pro — part loyal companion, part personal accountability partner. After spending far too much of her young life in rescue, Cindy Lou is more than ready for the good stuff: a home, a couch, a routine, a snack schedule, and people who adore her for the joyful, living mood booster she is. 🌟 Cindy Lou’s Highlights: • 10 months old (DOB 2/24/25) * 60lbs • Beautiful girl with a personality just as bright • Great with people & other dogs • Smart, social, and affectionate (Velcro level: elite) • Adventure buddy by day, champion snuggler by night If you’re looking for a dog who will fill your days with laughter, love, and a whole lot of happy chaos, Cindy Lou is ready to lean in and prance right into your heart. 👉 Apply today at haydudeequine.org — Cindy Lou is ready to start her forever story with you. 🐾💖

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org 🍪 Meet Nilla – Sweet as a Wafer, Twice as Fun! 🍪 If you’ve ever wished for a dog as sweet and comforting as your favorite cookie, look no further—Nilla’s got you covered! This 10-year-old Shepherd mix may be a “golden oldie,” but don’t let her age fool you. She’s still full of zest, zoomies, and plenty of love to share. At 45 lbs, Nilla is the perfect fun-size snack. She adores men, women, and other dogs, and her playful, gentle nature makes her a dream companion. She’s food-motivated (who isn’t when cookies are involved?) but never guards her goodies. Instead, she’s all about sharing her big heart and happily coming when called. ✨ Nilla’s recipe for the perfect home includes: — A comfy couch and a human who appreciates belly rubs and head scratches — Doggie friends to run and play with (she’s fantastic with canine buddies!) --- Would probably do fine with cats (she's pretty much ignores the outside cats) — Gentle, older kids who understand that even sweet cookies need a little care — Maybe a backyard where she can show off her zoomies before napping in the sun She’s housetrained, kennel trained, and not too interested in toys—her joy comes from people, play, and pets. With her easygoing nature and good manners, Nilla would make a pawfect first-time pet parent pup. She’s the comfort food of dogs: always reliable, always sweet, and guaranteed to brighten your day. If you’re craving a best friend who’s equal parts sugar, spice, and everything nice, Nilla is ready to be your forever snack pack companion. 🐾❤️ 👉 Apply today at haydudeequine.org and bring home this sweet wafer of a dog!

Story
Meet Flash! He's a sweet 7 year old pup with a gentle heart and a loyal spirit. He needs to be the only animal in the home and does best with secure fencing, as he's a bit of an escape artist. Once he's safe by your side, he's all love - calm, devoted, and happiest just being with his person. If you're looking for a loyal companion who will treasure a stable, watchful home, Flash is your guy!  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 ##782261##
