Story
Rip is an extremely energetic dog and loves to cuddle. He would climb in your body if you would let him. He’s very affectionate and loves attention. He used to get along with our Rottweiler, however he’s now competing to be alpha, which is why we are looking to rehome him. He’s a really good dog, but needs an alpha male present in the home to bond with. He is very treat driven and does all of your basic tricks sit down and Paw. It’s extremely bittersweet to have to let him go, but we know that he is not getting the attention that he needs and desires right now and feel that somebody else can provide that. We wish for no money for him. We only ask he goes to someone loving and will do right by him. Thank you.

Story
Hello. This is Caine. He is a loving four year old American Bulldog. Caine is a super active dog who loves LONG walks, car rides, to play, to cuddle, and also to just follow you around the house to make sure you’re ok. He isn’t a “protector” dog but he is “protective”. I received Caine in 2021 from a breeder when he was about 11wks old. He is NOT full breed but he his full of character and personality lol. My decision to rehome him is more of a ME problem. I fell into a deep depression from 2022-the beginning of 2025 which caused vet appointments to not be real concern of mine as well as my own health. I am now currently working but my hours can be longggg sometimes and I can tell that it’s caused him to be a little more stressed and anxious. I UNFORTUNATELY DO NOT have time to love him through his anxiety. Caine needs a person or family who has time to reassure him of how much of a good boy he is and proper care (vet appts). I wish I could but as I restart, I can not.

Story
Meet Sampson, a handsome, nearly two-year-old pup weighing in at a happy 62 pounds! After a brief adjustment period, Sampson has truly blossomed, revealing his active, joyful, and playful spirit. He's full of life and ready to bring endless fun to his forever home. Sampson is a smart cookie who's not only mastered "Sit," but is also fully potty and crate trained – no accidents after his first week! While he knows "Lay Down" and "Stay," he's a bit of a stubborn sweetheart and prefers to be in your lap than on the floor, especially if treats aren't involved! This boy is extremely playful and loves to chew, so a home with plenty of durable dog toys is a must – and vigilant tidiness is key, as shoes, stuffed animals, and even remotes can become tempting targets if left unattended! He's fairly good on walks, staying by your side with just a slight pull if an irresistible scent catches his attention. Sampson is a social butterfly, fantastic with other dogs – he even eats politely alongside them with no signs of food aggression. He's also a true gentleman and remarkably gentle with his human friends, big and small. He's been observed playing tug-of-war happily with his four-year-old foster sister, showing his gentle nature. Sampson is generally quiet, rarely barking, and absolutely loves to cuddle and be by your side. A true water enthusiast, he even enjoys bath time! If you're looking for a loving, lively, and incredibly cuddly companion who's ready to learn and grow with you, Sampson might be your perfect match!

Margo loves her humans and loves to snuggle. She is a very sweet girl who loves walks, sticks, food and laying out in the sun. She gets along great with our boy dog. After 4 years of being best friends and snuggle buddies with our other girl dog she got into a fight with her while my parents were dog sitting. Since then they have not seen each other. It is not something that we can risk happening again due to us expecting a child. Margo would be a fantastic pet for someone that wants a dog who is loyal and a dog who will love their humans with every ounce. She would do best in a house with no other dogs or a boy dog.

Story
Hey there, I’m Susie! I’m a 4-year-old Bully mix with that classic look — chonky, short, and strong! Right now, I’m hanging out in a foster home where I’ve been learning all sorts of good manners. I even graduated from a 7-week basic obedience class (I’m pretty proud of that!) and my awesome foster keeps helping me learn new things every day so I can be the best doggo I can be. I’ve got a big personality — loving, loyal, and just the right amount of sassy. I’m not a fan of cats, and I can be a bit particular about other dogs, so I’d probably do best as your one and only pet. But trust me, I’ve got enough love to fill your whole home! If you’re looking for a sweet, spunky girl who’s ready to make you smile every day, I think we’d be a perfect match! 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 ##2204969##

Story
Hi! My name is Raspberry Beret! I'm a 2 year old, happy-go-lucky Pitbull mix. My foster Mom tells me I'm a shy but sweet, eager to please girl that loves to PLAY, so I NEED another large active dog in my new home!   I also love playing with toys and chewing on nylabones, but I REALLY love running through the back yard. I get along with my 4-legged foster siblings, and I would do best with a submissive, tolerant male dog that really enjoys playing. I really need a similar size very active dog in the home. Due to my activity level, I'm too much for a smaller dog. I'm a young lady with a LOT of energy to burn and need a back yard in my forever home or a very active person that likes to walk or hike on a regular basis. And I can jump really high so a 6 foot fence would be ideal. I'm also potty trained and after a day of play I do good in my crate at night and actually prefer to sleep in the crate, keeps me out of trouble.    Did I mention that I love to play!?! But what I love most is SNUGGLING (after we've gotten to know each other of course!)!     I would love to become the newest member of a family that will include me in their activities. If you like snuggling after going on new adventures together, fill out an application and my foster Mom will contact you so we can meet! 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. Raspberry Beret’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.
