Gateway Pet Guardians is proud to offer a variety of mixed breed dogs available for adoption. However, please keep in mind that we rarely know the genetic background of the animals we rescue and, as such, we cannot guarantee the exact breed combinations found within this dog. Therefore, we do not know his/her actual genetic makeup. Just know that this dog is probably a variety of several different breeds that have combined to create one very amazing and unique animal.

Story
I'm Jonesie. As you can see, I'm a handsome little fella. Only 14 lbs. I'm thought to be a Shorkie (Shih Tzu/Yorkie). I'm looking for a laid back home where I can be myself and thrive. I'm probably not the best for a home with small children or a lot of hustle and bustle, but for the right family - I'm a real catch. 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 ##2723831##

Story
King is a 8-year-old Shih Tzu who has been a beloved member of our family his entire life. We are looking for a caring home that can provide the extra love and attention a senior dog deserves.King is a calm, laid-back companion who enjoys a quiet environment. He is house-trained, independent, and tends to be more of a loner than a social butterfly. His favorite activities include relaxing indoors, taking leisurely walks, and sitting outside on sunny days.King has some skin issues that developed as a side effect of medication, so his coat is kept short to help keep him comfortable. He would do best with someone who appreciates a gentle, low-maintenance companion and can provide a peaceful home where he can enjoy his golden years.He is relaxed, well mannered, and can be won over with treats and rubs. However he can be stubborn so it is important to be stern with him. Due to pets not being allowed where I have moved to, I am seeking a loving caregiver for King.

Story
Murphy came to us from a local animal control due to the sudden and terrible passing of his dad. He was so upset he was lashing out at everyone. He was a scared little guy. He wants everyone to think he is a big mean dog...when in all actuality he is a sweet loveable little guy with a huge need for attention. He is best being an only dog, but has been ok with several others here as long as they have enough room to give each other space. He doesn't mind cats. He will need someone that understands small dog scare tactics :) He was adopted several years ago and returned due to his adopter being unable to care for him any longer. He is now a toothless semi senior guy looking for his perfect retirement home. ##623222##
