Story

We rescued Max from a man who wanted to throw him away when he was only six weeks old because Max’s mother didn’t want him. The man told us that Max would die anyway. I brought him home, but we already have a Husky, and they fought really badly. Now we don’t have time anymore — we also have our three-year-old granddaughter living with us. Max is always upset and has bitten Lucky and Luna, our Huskies, very badly. We tried to keep the three dogs separated, but we can’t because the Huskies escape every day, and this is causing problems with our neighbors. Now we don’t know what we can do Max need a home with more attention, our family need focus in stablest the economy and everybody work all day and weekends too. Thank you so much and God Bless you

Puppies, Puppies, Puppies! This adorable trio is full of fun, wiggles, and personality! They love squeaky toys, playing outside, and chasing the bigger dogs around the yard—though sometimes they decide chewing on each other is just as fun. After all that excitement, you’ll find them sunbathing in the yard, soaking up the warmth while watching all the action around them. They’re smart, treat-motivated, and eager to learn, which makes training a breeze. They’ve already mastered the doggy door, and that’s helping them make great progress with potty training. These sweet, playful pups are ready to bring joy, laughter, and lots of puppy kisses to their forever families!

Story

Meet Rio 'Member that scene from Lady and the Tramp where the dogs are sharing a single spaghetti? It's fake. I know this because no dog in their right tooting mind is going to share a pawsta string when there's an entire heckin meatball on the plate. Next thing you know we will find out that wasn't even pawsta, it was squash impersonating a pawsta :0 Either way, I'd have to have a stunt double for that scene because I do not enjoy sharing my food or treats. Foster Mom is practicing better table manners with me. Sharing is caring. She says. Which is ironical because she's never once so much as offered me even a nibble of her oreo cookies. I litterally look like an Oreo cookie which happens to be my Foster Moms favorite treat. Hint hint, send her a pallet for all the schooling she is doing for me. I LOVE TO TRAIN and Foster Mom says I'm a super fast learner. Indeed, I will do whatever a human wants for a food. I know my name, Rio, plus sit, come, down, come, "rest for cooperative care and a hand target. Speaking of Target, before you pick me up, be sure to stop off and get me lots of fetch toys. Get yourself something pretty too, like some chenille slippers, yeah, for yourself, I pawmise not to touch them. *crosses fingers behind his back* Foster Mom has been working with me on my dog-on-dog skills because I can be a real booger. I need a special kind of dog friend. Her own personal dog Jax is serving as my mentor. Here's what Jax has to say about me "Bruh, calm down. Dude, you need a home with a chill dog that is not easily annoyed. One that won't lash out but will still correct your obnoxiousness and inappropriate play. One that will tolerate your shenanigans. Okay, so you heard that raving review from my buddy ole pal compadre Jax. Note to self, find out what obnoxiousness, tolerate and inappropriate means, because honestly all I heard was chili dog and got hungry while visions of weenies danced in my head. :) Foster Mom did say, I would do best with a sturdy dog, my size or larger. I guess you need to know my size. I'm a ruff and tumble and mouthy player so your dog would have to be more of a rugby than hockey player. I have lots of fans on the internet and they also told me to be sure to mention my floppy ears, my freckled snooter and the fact that my feet most likely smell like frito pie which I'm fairly sure is a compliment. So if it helps to butter you up with compliments, I bet you smell like cheese because I think you're grate! Like most spunky young pups, I get the zoomies when excited. I love to play fetch and tug. I'm working on sharing my toys. I do need lots of approved chew toys such as pig ears. That reminds me, I am not good with cats. Cats are not approved toys. Cats are NOT approved toys. Worth repeating. I am crate trained, pretty much standard pawcedure. I did also try my heck hardest to get Foster Mom to give me driving lessons, so I could add that to my skill list, but she said "No Rio, dogs can't drive. I guess she's never seen a Subaru commercial. I like car rides but I don't enjoy being restrained so we are working on that too. I am loveable and active. Bath time and nail clip time are not a problem. Occasionally I impersonate a potato on the couch, but fun is more my taste. Foster Mom says if you are the type who enjoys entertaining antics and doesn't mind providing extra guidance, you'd be happy as my family. I would be good as an only son, but if you have current dogs that don't mind EXTRA level whippersnappers, that might work too. Foster Mom is a professional trainer and is willing to give you tips on how to make sure I stay on the path to good boy town. I'm excited to go to goodboyville with you as long as there are snacks and pit stops along the way. P.S. You're driving to good boy town, because 'member, Foster Mom wouldn't teach me how to drive. It's beyond her skill set. $200 Local Adoption Fee (in Texas) $400 Out of State Fee (includes transportation to your area)

Story

Straight from the pasture to your heart, meet the Dairy Dozen: 12 adorable pit mix puppies who look like they wandered out of a Holstein herd and into a cuddle puddle. These little sweethearts are bundles of energy named in honor of Polk County’s beloved dairy farmers—each one a tribute to the hardworking folks who keep kept our milk flowing for generations. They’re already showing smarts and spunk. These pups will thrive in active homes. Whether you’ve got a pasture, a backyard, or just a big heart, the Dairy Dozen are ready to bring joy, laughter, and a little local pride to your life. Set up a time to meet the herd—your future best friend might just be grazing in the puppy pen! If you're interested in adopting one, please fill out an adoption application online at www.polkcountyhumanesociety.org/adopt where you will also find a link to reserve an appointment time. Some pets are in foster homes or may already have an appointment scheduled, so the appointment is important to make sure the puppy 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! #adoptdontshop ##2508492##

Story

Jet’s story hasn’t been an easy one. After being adopted, this sweet boy was sadly dumped by his previous adopters and has since found his way back to us. Despite everything he’s been through, Jet’s gentle spirit still shines through. He may be a little shy at first, but once he warms up, you’ll be greeted with his handsome smile that could light up any room! Jet is very sweet guy who loves affection—he’ll never turn down pets, cuddles, or a nice walk. His favorite cuddle position is upside down in your lap! He’s kennel trained, fully potty trained, and rides wonderfully in the car. Jet is looking for a loving, committed family who will give him the security he deserves and never give up on him again. Could that be you?
