Jozi is a 6 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback. She is a very sweet dog that loves time with people and other dog friends. She does great in the house and enjoys laying outside in the sunshine. We are looking for a home that can give Jozi more time and attention, outside play, etc.

My foster family calls me "sweet shelly" because I have a great attitude! Shelly is great on the leash. She does not pull when you are taking her for walks. She stays by your side when you are on a walk. She would do best with an active family that likes walks and adventures! Shelly sleeps in her crate at night and does not make a peep. Shelly has been potty trained in the past. She needed a couple of days to remember where to potty but she is now completely going potty outside. Shelly will let you know when she needs to go by crying and spinning in circles. Shelly knows "sit" and "come here." Shelly is a smart girl and picks up on things quickly. She is very loyal, loving, and enjoys attention. Shelly will follow you where you go to make sure she does not miss out on the fun. She wants to be around her people. Her foster family can tell she has lived in a house previously. Shelly is great with other dogs and meeting new people. Shelly could be the only dog in the home or with other dogs. She settled into her foster home fast. ##2008437##

Mojo, an around-6-year old, 50 lb Rhodesian Ridgeback / Lab mix, is a great example of why people love the beauty and sweetness of mixed breed dogs. This breed mix is in the opinion of Texas veterinarians. Farfel's doesn't do DNA testing and therefore can't swear to it.. All we know for certain is that this sweet as can be guy is absolutely irresistible! Can you imagine a dog being safer at an overcrowded high-kill shelter than with his previous owner? Well, that was Mojo's life. This kind and loving guy had an evil owner who enjoyed watching him suffer. He was left chained up just outside the kitchen window so his owner could watch him each day him slowly dying. Mojo was never fed or given water. The only hydration he received was from the rain that accumulated in filthy puddles in the yard. No matter how this starving dog whimpered and cried, he never received food and was on too short a chain to move and fend for himself. For month after painful month, Mojo was forced to lay on hard cement with no shade or roof. He stayed outside, attached to his heavy chain in the heat of the Texas summer, and the cold of winter. Mojo's body was slowly giving up, and he no longer had the energy to stand. Neighbors started noticing Mojo, unable to move in the filthy yard, and asked the owner to relinquish him to the authorities. Sadly he refused. He told the neighbors that the dog would be dead soon anyway. It wasn't until the authorities intervened that Mojo was thankfully confiscated and removed from the property. A cruelty case was filed against the previous owner. (The picture of skinny Mojo laying on the ground was taken by the neighbor and given to the police). Even though the shelter was nursing Mojo back to health, with abuse cases coming into the shelter every day, Mojo was placed on the euthanasia list due to lack of space. This brave boy has fought so hard to live for so long that Farfel's Rescue just couldn't turn our backs on him. We spoke up to save Mojo's life and he's now safe and sound and has made his way to Colorado. Mojo now sleeps in his foster moms bed at night, and is happier than ever, and hoping to find his forever home soon. Notes from Mojo's Texas foster, and his Colorado foster: * * * * From Texas foster: "The first time I met Mojo at the shelter, we weren't allowed to video or take pictures because he was a cruelty case still pending, however, we couldn't help falling deeply in love the minute we met him. Poor Mojo wagged and loved us up from the very first moment. Our hearts broke because he's such a sweet boy who is sooo skinny and still so hungry. Mojo was a staff favorite and whenever the employees or volunteers were at the shelter, they took this sweetie from his tiny cage, brought him to the office and loved him up! I then took him home to foster and what a good boy. He was so relieved to be in a home that he fell asleep as soon as we got home. Once he started warming up and realizing he was safe, he showed just how much personality he has!!" From Mojo's Colorado foster: "Oh Mojo is a hoot! He is so happy and friendly and social, and you wouldn't even know he's 6 years old, because he acts like he's maybe 2 or 3! He LOVES toys and playing. This boy never got to be a real dog until now, so he is living it up. He is very active and very playful. He would do great with an active adopter who has time to train him some basic skills. He is very cuddly when he does settle down, and sleeps in bed with me. While he is good with dogs off leash and in the home, he has some on leash sensitivity where he barks if he sees another dog. I think he just doesn't know how to contain his excitement. He responds very well to a treat distraction, and is VERY VERY VERY food motivated! He met two kids on a walk yesterday, they were 7 & 9 and he was so sweet with them. He would do well in a home with kids, as long as they know he is not so gentle when taking treats from your hand! He was denied food for a long time, so he inhales it when he gets it! He is potty trained!! " * * * * Our wonderful boy has a cute little smirk. When he was vetted, the vet felt that his smile is just a tad crooked, and that this was most likely caused by a kick to the face by his cruel previous "owner". (Nothing was needed, as he is not in pain and nothing is broken). Whatever it is, it gives him the cutest little smile. When Mojo was vetted and vaccinated, a heart worm test was given that came out positive...not at all surprising for a dog that lived under these awful conditions. Farfel's has already started Mojo's treatment, and will cover all costs for treatment to make this wonderful dog heart worm negative. The only thing we ask of our adopter is to keep Mojo from being too active (a great bonding time) while he goes through the treatment process which consists of several vet visits with injections over a period of sixty days. Farfel's has never had a dog treated for heart worm that didn't ultimately result in a negative heart worm outcome. Mojo is not yet neutered, but we do cover the full cost of his neuter at our vet. (Neuter is required to finalize any adoption). Mojo is available for adoption now. Applications are currently being accepted for this sweet and very loving best friend and can be found at http://farfels.com/farfels-res. cue/adoption-form/.

  These are still early days for 18-month-old Hazel as the 45-pound brown beauty accustoms herself to life in her foster home. Sweet, easygoing and calm, she craves attention and LOVE, and adores snuggling and cuddling with her foster mom, resting her head on her, showing her paw for more loving and turning over for tummy rubs. Moderately energetic, she enjoys going for walks, honing her leash skills along the way, playing and picking up a ball, carrying around a pair of socks in her mouth and chewing on bones. Motivated by love and food, Hazel may not know any commands, but she’s very bright and eager to please, accepts all treats gently, and is almost fully crate and house-trained. With much yet to learn and much love to share, Hazel will be happiest in an especially attentive home, preferably with older children, and patient adopters who will complete her training, including her commands, and keep her both active and adored always.   Animal Rescue of the Rockies believes every pet should find a wonderful and caring home.

Hi, I'm Precious! I am a 5 month old Black Mouth Cur mix. I came to the shelter with my 7 other siblings! I'm still a puppy, full of energy and love. I love to play, and I'm always up for a good game. I'm sweet and cuddly, too. I love to curl up in a warm lap and give lots of puppy kisses. I'm a quick learner, too. I'm potty trained as long as I am kept on a good scheuldue. I am also crate trained, so I won't make a mess in your house. I promise to be a good girl and make you proud. I'm just looking for a family to love me as much as I'll love them. Adopting me means gaining a loyal friend who will bring joy, laughter, and love into your life. So, what do you say? Will you be my forever family? 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 request an appointment to meet me. 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. No need to call to find out about me, you can ask questions on the application or email questions to info@polkcountyhumanesociety.org. Polk County Humane Society is located in Bolivar, Missouri, but also makes transports to the Denver, CO, Des Moines, IA and Minneapolis, MN areas twice a month. 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 and we will call you at the time of the visit once it is confirmed. For long distance transports, there is an additional $100 fee to cover the cost of the transport ($65) and a health certificate from a veteinarian ($35). Going that last mile home for our sweet pets! ##1946543##

Hey there, I'm Roxi! My journey to the shelter? Well, it all started with my siblings and I, the Paw Patrol Pups, playing a game of hide and seek. I'm smart and brave, so naturally, I found the best hiding spot. Turns out, it was a delivery truck. Before I knew it, I was on a surprise adventure across town! Don't worry, a friendly human found me and brought me here. Now, I spend my days being sweet, playful, and a little goofy. I've got energy to spare and I'm curious about everything. I'm just looking for a forever friend who can match my zest for life. Adopt me, and let's start our adventure together! ##1946540##
