Story
Meet Odin! Odin is a happy-go-lucky pup looking for the right forever home to love him for his big personality and show stopping smile! Odin has had a bit of a rough start and is ready for his new family to show him all the love and cuddles he craves. He loves to sit right by (or on the feet of) his humans and is always ready for the next adventure. He has done well in foster homes and loves just being close to his person. He is fully potty trained so don't worry about any accidents! He would do best in a home without other animals as he doesn't want to have to share the spotlight, but would love for him to be your new best buddy.

Story
This little cuddle butt who is house trained, leash trained and crate trained is looking for a home where she can be the only dog. Loves car rides and playing. Likes to cuddle as much as possible! Bonus points if someone likes to go hiking in nature and/or has land she can guard! She is not well suited for apartment living with narrow hallways, doorways and stairwells where she gets startled. Has been respectful of her feline housemate but intimidates my super submissive older dog. I will be providing a home for her until her forever home is found. I have all the supplies to go with her: coat, boots, harness, leash, crate, toys, etc..

Story
Meet Tinka, a charming 40-pound Catahoula and Black Mouth Cur mix with a heart full of love. Tinka is not only intelligent but also incredibly sweet.

With a gentle introduction, he can even get along famously with cats, showing his adaptable nature. But what truly sets Tinka apart is his affection for children. He adores kids and is their loyal and patient friend, always ready to share his love and wagging tail. His good heart shines through in every interaction, making him the perfect addition to any family seeking a smart, sweet, and loving companion. Tinka was with the rescue as a puppy (see cute puppy pic) and was returned after found on the streets of SA :( But he is an amazing boy, had some special obedience training with his previous family and now he can be YOUR new family member!!!

Story
Hey there, I'm Penelope! I'm a fun-loving girl with a happy attitude. I do great on a leash- I don't even pull! I'm potty-trained and do good in my kennel overnight as long as I have toys to play with! I seem to do good with other dogs but the shelter reccomends a quick introduction before sending me home. I'd love to find my person or family that I can call my own.  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 ##2155017##

Story
May came into rescue during COVID with her puppies almost 4 years ago. She has seen so many foster puppies come and go through our barn and continues to patiently wait for her turn for a family of her very own. She is happy here, we walk and explore daily and she is very loved. But y’all she deserves so much more than we can offer her. May is such a sweet girl. She had an absolutely awful start to life but she loves people and loves to be loved. She needs a minute to build trust in new environments and with new people, but she has come SO incredibly far. She would be best as an only dog or would be fine with a pup or non-dominant dog. Please help us help her find the happily ever after she deserves!Her adoption fee is completely sponsored and she’s fully vetted! All we need is the perfect home! She's mastered all basic obedience training thanks to classes with Swift K9 Training. She LOVES people and kids, but would do best in a home with children over 8. She does not mind cats at all and completely ignores them. She loves her crate--it's her safe space. She is great on leash and loves walks. May is about 4.5 years old and weighs 55 pounds. She would do best in a home as an only dog, and needs a quiet, calm environment willing to take things slow to help her adjust to home life. She does LOVE to help foster puppies! She has a lot of love to give to someone who can give her a chance.IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats.
