Story
I'm Miguel. So.... long story short, my owner went to jail and I was living in a tiny camper with a total of 6 dogs and 4 guinea pigs inside. Not to mention the two that were chained up outside, so life was pretty croweded and confusing. Now, I'm learning what it feels like to have space and lots of people who care about me. I'm a little unsure at times, but i'm really trying my best and I warm up fast when someone shows me love! I'm looking for a fresh start with someone who can give me a safe, calm home. I promise i've got a big heart ready for you! 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 ##2601476##

Story
Meet Hera! This 2-year-old, 13.5-pound Chihuahua may be small in size, but she has a huge heart and an even bigger love for snuggling. Hera is a gentle soul who starts out shy, but once she feels safe, she blossoms into the most loyal, cuddly companion you could ever hope for. Hera adores children and loves nothing more than curling up next to them for naps. She’s also potty trained and crate trained, and while she was a little unsure before, she’s really come into her own in a loving home. She gets along well with other mild-mannered dogs, though she may be a little shy when first meeting them. While Hera doesn’t trust men right away, she’s not aggressive—just cautious and looking for patience and kindness. She would thrive in a calm, gentle home where she can continue to build confidence and share her quiet, devoted love. If you’re looking for a sweet, snuggly girl who’ll warm your heart (and your lap), Hera is ready to be your little shadow.

Story
Meet Muggle! ✨ This calm, gentle 4-year-old chihuahua mix weighs about 15 pounds and has a wonderfully easygoing personality. When Muggle first arrived, he was a little unsure of his new surroundings — but he simply goes with the flow. He settles in quickly and takes everything in stride. Muggle is quiet, sweet, and friendly with everyone he meets. He gets along great with other dogs and would be a lovely companion for someone looking for a mellow, loving little guy. If you’re looking for an easy, gentle friend who’s happy just being by your side, Muggle might be your perfect match.
