Story
Meet Clyde – Your Big Sweetheart in Need of a Forever Home! He is neutered and up to date on shots. Currently located in Grimes, IA. Clyde is a 3-year-old, 85–90 lb bundle of love and muscle who will absolutely steal your heart. This handsome pittie is super sweet, has great recall, and loves nothing more than gazing into your soul with those big, loving eyes. He’s been wonderful with adults, teens, a toddler, and a busy, loud household. Clyde gets along with other dogs, but we think he’d thrive best as an only pet or with one calm adult dog. He hasn’t been tested with cats. Clyde is crate-trained and goes in willingly, but he dreams of living like a human—free and loved! He’s strong and a little jumpy, so he needs someone who can work with him on manners. He’s smart, eager to please, and deserves the best life. Why is Clyde looking for a new home? His current family loves him, but due to an unexpected medical emergency, they can’t give him the attention and space he deserves.

Johnston, IA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Marsay is a 13 year old 60 lb pit mix looking for a retirement home. Marsay is incredibly affectionate and still has the energy of a young pup! He loves to cuddle but also loves going for walks with his foster mom. He is house/crate trained. He does fine with most dogs one-on-one and after a proper intro; we haven't seen him with cats yet and require a meet with any resident pets before adoption. He does tend to guard resources (particularly food and high value toys/bones) so we are suggesting older kids in the home and a dedicated adopter willing to put some one-on-one training time in with him. He loves to meet new people and be part of the action! If interested in meeting Marsay, please apply at www.foreverhomedogs.org!All adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots. Senior dogs, at our discretion, are adopted out at $150 per dog because we know they will have less time with your family and may eventually have more needs as they get older. But we feel these dogs deserve to live out the rest of their lives as part of a loving family.

Story
I'm Jocko. I'm one sweet boy. I was chained up outside when I was rescued - so no more of that for me! I'm looking for a home where I will be part of the family and loved on. Is that with 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 ##2602919##

Story
Meet Ollie, an adorable pitbull mix who loves people other large dogs. He can be a little shy at first, but once he trusts you, he turns into a huge cuddle bug. He loves to cuddle up on the couch to watch TV with his people, but can also be active and fun. He's obsessed with toys--balls, stuffies, chew bones, tug toys, every kind! He especially loves anything that squeeks and loves to destroy stuffed toys. He is very athletic and would excel at agility or flyball or would be great for an active person or family. He would love to run and hike with his new family and loves water too! He would love a puppy pool in the summer and would love to go to the lake or river with you too! He loves to play fetch and would love a large fenced yard to play in. He loves playing with other large dogs and would especially love a pretty female companion. He does need a home with no small animals or livestock. He's learning commands, but still gets very excited around his favorite people and is still learning not to jump up to give kisses, so he would be best in a family with older kids. He has so much love to give, is your home the right fit for him?  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.

Story
Hi, I'm Darla! I am full of fun, wiggles, and personality! I love squeaky toys, playing outside, and chasing the bigger dogs around the yard. After all that excitement, I enjoy sunbathing in the yard, soaking up the warmth while watching all the action around me. I'm smart, treat-motivated, and eager to learn, which makes training a breeze. I’ve already mastered the doggy door, and that’s helping me make great progress with potty training. This sweet, playful pup is ready to bring joy, laughter, and lots of puppy kisses to her forever family! Local adoption fee is $250(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Maisy, with a story uniquely her own, Pellets from a BB-gun, marks that have grown. Touch her back with care, for it causes her pain, But her spirit remains strong, through sunshine and rain. She's a good girl at heart, with a love for ice cream, When it's hard, that's her dreamy, sweet, little dream. She frowns upon dogs who leap on her back, For the hurt it might bring, she's got a knack. A companion she needs, a relaxed couch potato, Or perhaps as an only dog, she'll shine like a halo. She relishes walks, car rides, and love without end, Listening well to every word, a loyal and dear friend. Maisy, you're a good girl, through and through, With your quirks and your charm, you steal hearts too. In your presence, love and joy unfurl, Maisy, the one-of-a-kind, precious pearl. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area, $50 temporary fuel fee included)
