Story
Pryncess may have a name fit for a throne, but she’s actually a very modest and quiet girl. She is a shy-but-sweet soul who prefers to observe from the sidelines until she knows she’s safe. Once she trusts you, however, she reveals her true colors—a devoted, tender-hearted companion who will follow you with quiet loyalty. 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 ##2674221##

Keith [Urban] is an incredibly sweet-natured and fun-loving Anatolian Shepherd / Catahoula Leopard Dog mix with a personality as big as his namesake! This playful, smart, friendly, and curious little guy is already living like a country superstar—he loves bringing the entertainment and will happily soak up all the love (and belly rubs) from his adoring fans. Whether he’s exploring like he’s on tour, chasing toys like they owe him money, or cuddling up close for a slow “love song,” Keith is guaranteed to steal your heart. He may not have a guitar just yet, but he's already mastered the art of puppy charm and is quickly learning the ropes of how to be a very good boy. Keith is looking for a forever home where he can continue growing, learning, and headlining your daily life. If you’re ready for a little bit of country, a whole lot of cute, and a lifelong best friend—Keith is ready for his encore in your home!  Keith thrives on having a bestie to zoom, tug-of-war, and nap with. A home with another playful dog is basically his dream come true! If you’ve got a furry friend who’s ready for a sidekick, this adorable goofball is ready to join the squad. ##2698523##

Story
Meet Ember! This sweet girl is full of love and potential. She's a smart, playful, and headstrong companion who loves learning. Ember is potty trained, knows basic commands like “sit,” “lay,” and “paw,” and is working hard on mastering “place” and waiting for her release. She’s made huge strides in getting comfortable with new people and dogs—though introductions need to be slow, she does great with proper supervision and is especially wonderful off-leash in open spaces. Ember enjoys fetch, walks (though she’s still working on leash manners), and relaxing with her favorite stuffed animals or a peanut butter jar. Ember will thrive in a home as the only dog with a yard where she can run and burn off energy. She's reactive with on-leash dog introductions and needs continued training and patience in this area. Ember can also be cautious with small children, so she’s best in an adult-only home. Ember is a happy, snuggly girl who is ready for a loving, patient family to help her continue to blossom. Is she the right fit for you? ##1703938##

Story
We are looking for a new home for Gracie, our loyal and loving 6-year-old medium-sized dog with significant reactivity issues. She loves food, running and playing in the backyard, and long snuggles on the couch. We have had her for over five years. She is afraid of and aggressive toward strangers and is slow to adjust to new people (ranging from a few hours to many days or weeks; faster with women) but becomes fiercely loyal and affectionate with time. She had never gotten along particularly well with most other dogs, but she and our other dog tolerated each other until recently, when she began snapping at and getting into severe fights with our other dog. Given these risks, she should not go to a home with other animals. She was initially nervous around our newborn child but became very patient and tolerant of that now toddler-aged child. Still, we would not consider her kid friendly given her reactivity and do not recommend families with young children adopt her.
