Story
Bub is a sweet boy who loves to snuggle, chew bones, and go on long walks. I adopted him from a rescue end of 2022. He is of unknown age but likely to be around 4 years old. Hes well potty trained and does well with kenneling. Looking for a loving home that would have plenty of time to give him all the play and attention he deserves. It's been such a tough decision having to find him a new home, but I'm not in the position in life to give him all he needs, and I just want him to be happy.

Story
The Survivor Litter - born brave, built for joy. Meet Bravery, Chance, Courage, Fighter, Grit, Hardy, Perseverance, Resolve, Soldier, Spirit, and Tenacity - a lively crew of heeler mix pups who have already shown the world what resilience looks like. With bright eyes, wagging tails, and hearts full of hope, they're ready to start their next chapter. These pups are thriving - safe, warm, vaccinated, and discovering that every day brings something new to love. They're a mix of sweetness, silliness, and steel spined charm, and they're looking for families who will celebrate the strength and spirit behind their names. If you've been waiting for a sign, this is it. Adopt a Survivor. Give them the joyful ending their story deserves. 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 ##2707942##

Story
Bluey was found in the field of a Catholic Church School while our rescuer was trying to trap another dog. He was with the other dog but the only one of the two that was able to be caught. He didn't know it at the time, but he is lucky, and will now live the good life as a Colorado boy! When I first saw Bluey my immediate thought was "bowling ball." Other thoughts might be "potato" or "Roly Poly." He rolls all right- right out of bed to his bowl for a meal. He likes to sleep a lot in his crate like a potato. He does this funny thing when he's outside on the grass and throws himself back and gives you his belly. Then like a Roly Poly, or Ladybug stuck on her back- he is stuck on his back. Bluey is very capable of being an active, healthy, medium energy dog, with the right, motivational human. He's already super playful, silly and loves to play chase with his best friend Hanalei. Bluey is good with female dogs big and small, kids, but not always good with male dogs- he's selective. Bluey has been with his rescuer in San Antonio, Texas for a year now, but he just heard about Colorado and he's pumped! Or he'll get pumped? One of the two. Either way, let's get this ball rolling, literally, roll him North up to Colorado- he just need an adopter or committed foster please. ***Bluey is being posted on behalf of our partner rescue in Texas- the process and adoption will go through them. The adoption fee does not include the transport fee (usually $125-200/per dog).*** Red Fern Animal Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit foster-based animal rescue in Denver that saves animals from abandonment and neglect in South Texas for new lives in Colorado. We primarily rescue dogs off the streets and from kill shelters in San Antonio. ##2671545##

Story
Buddy Blue was living his best life going on hunting and fishing trips and accompanying his owner everywhere he went- he loves car rides! Unfortunately his owner passed and Buddy has been left confused and needing his person. The family is hoping Buddy could find a new home with an active family that will include Buddy in activities, has a yard, and gets him running around every day. Buddy Blue is a three year old pure bred Blue Heeler, about 50 pounds. He is house broken and good with other dogs and cats, with slow, controlled introductions. He is comfortable with kids, but as an active, excitable boy, he jumps a lot, so better with older kids. In his current home he is living with a small dog, big dog and cats. It took him some time to get acclimated to the news dogs but he now does his best to play with the Chiweenie. He was previously very well leash trained but has fallen out of the habit in his current house, so just needs some practice to get him back to mastery! Buddie Blue is being fostered in Littleton, Colorado- available to meet! Red Fern Animal Rescue offers a two week foster to adopt trial in your home before finalizing the adoption to ensure the animal is the right fit for you, everyone in the home, human & animal, and vice versa. Red Fern Animal Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit foster-based animal rescue in Denver that saves animals from abandonment and neglect in South Texas for new lives in Colorado.

Story
Meet Kylo! He was rescued from a high-kill shelter in San Antonio, TX after learning that he had been attacked by another dog in the "play yard" and was facing euthanasia the next day due to being fearful after the incident. Once he was out of the shelter, Kylo took the time he needed to decompress in a foster home in SA. He is now ready for his new beginning in Colorado. Kylo is intially shy when meeting people. Once he trusts his humans, he is loving and affectionate. He adores playing with other dogs and would benefit from a home with a confident dog that can teach him how to feel safe.   Kylo can come to Colorado once he has a secured foster or foster-to-adopt home waiting for him.

Story
Really wants to love and be loved. Often picked on but takes it well and gets distance Sweetheart! The SW Shed dogs were found by Rezdawg locked in a shed. The owner dropped food for them but they were never allowed out. He had no idea how many of them there were and of course they had never been to a vet or socialized in any positive way :( Due to the circumstances these dogs were found in, they are going to need specific situations: Need to stay in martingale collar and leash drag until dogs are bonded to people/place NOT allowed off leash (for longer than most dogs) HOLD space for them (for longer than most dogs) They have never been without their siblings, this will take some adjustment They also only know how to play they way they did with their siblings, this may take a patience and a solid dog to help them with. Dogs are their main language and what they like/know better than us – they will struggle if there isn’t one around They came from an absolutely quiet area into another relatively quiet one; traffic, people, normal stuff is going to be stressful for them; treat them more like a cat than a dog….no outings, let them get comfy at home and find their footings without the chaos of people, life and the environment. Incl no walks until they really settle in. They should wear a tracking device 24/7 for their first 8mo (apple airtag as a last resort) ##2447562##
