Story
Hi, I’m Wiley, and I’m looking for my forever family. I’m about a year old and am officially up to 39lbs, and while no one knows for sure, they think I might be a mix of German Shepherd, Border Collie, and Husky. What we do know is that I’m incredibly sweet, smart, eager to please, and love to play! My journey hasn’t been the easiest—I was picked up as an emaciated stray and found myself at Cedar Rapids Animal Care and Control. When my rescue and foster family saw my face (and guessed I’d need a personalized feeding plan), they knew they had to come get me. Since then, I’ve been learning what it means to be safe, loved, and cared for. Trusting life experiences is still a work in progress, but have come so far! I’m getting there! I would thrive in a home where someone is around more often than not, and where I can go on walks, run, and use my nose—because let me tell you, I’m a fantastic sniffer! I love to be active and engaged, and I’m ready to keep learning with my forever family. Tomorrow, I get to meet my rescue’s professional trainer, and anyone who chooses me will be able to continue this training (paid for by APL), until complete. This will help build a solid foundation and a strong bond between us! If you’re looking for a smart, playful, and loyal companion, I’d love to meet you! Please help me find my forever. That’s all I’ve ever hoped for. Wiley is up to date on vaccinations, neutered, microchipped and has been 4DX tested. He would do best in a home with a physically fenced in yard so he can run and explore safely. Applications can be submitted within his profile, here: https://www.aplanimalrescue.org/dogs (an application does not bind you to adoption, it is simply our starting point)

Story
Woohee! We are a great blend of German Shepherd and Texas Heeler. We are going to be smart as a whip and quick as a snake. We will be the bestest you ever met if you'll just give us a chance to be your BFF! 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 ##2346183##
