Story
Stella turns ONE on December 6 and my dream is that she has a furever family by then! Stella was born from working LGDs and spent the first 6 months of her life in a barn with zero training or supervision. The farmer decided she was a "failed LGD" and was going to put her down so I took her. She was the most affectionate, calm, beautiful pup I'd ever seen despite obviously carrying trauma from her upbringing (lack thereof). She had never been inside before but she learned quickly and is 98% house trained. She sleeps in a kennel but doesn't go in during the day (She'll lay in it but hates when you close the door and will panic piddle). We're also struggling with the concept of "holding it." We take her out every 3-4 hours just to be safe. I was sorely tempted to keep her, but I really think she wants a big, fenced in yard to spend more time outdoors and I think she'd really love having kids to watch and play with.

Story
Grits and determination!! That is the saying, right? To get anywhere you must have grits and determination?? Grits are good for you, ask any Southern mama :) You guessed it, my name is Grits and I have a LOT of determination! I came from the pound with HORRIFIC injuries related to a multiple dog attack :( And boy I was in pain and had horrible infections and was so so skinny and just sad... But the rescue peeps fixed me up! It took several weeks of LOVE, good nutrition, wound care and "heart repair" to return my zest for life and to see the glimmer of hope in my eyes... Now I am all fixed up, healthy and happy and READY for you!! Don't ever let me be out on the streets again, fighting off other dogs to live. Give me your COUCH, an air conditioner and lots of love and treats and I will be yours FUREVER!!! And speaking of fur, well, you know I am a Great Pyrenees and we SHED great amounts, so you must love me more than my hair!!! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area, $50 temporary fuel fee will be included)

Story
Hello, I'm Mo! I'm the sweetest, friendliest, most curious and smartest dog you'll ever meet. I've lived most of my life outdoors, so I could adapt again to that life or life inside loving you. If you're looking for a friend that can turn any situation into a comedy sketch, I'm your dogs. Adopt me, and let's create our own sitcom! 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 ##2032005##

Story
Snow is a pretty typical name for a white dog.... but for me it is like a sweet cool breeze! Because I HAVE a NAME and LOVE to go with it!! You see, I was living in a home that didn't want me up until I arrived at the rescue several weeks ago. So, I didn't get a nice name, or a bed or love and hardly any food :( I am still shy at first but my life has changed so so much that I can't help but love everyone now :) I especially love other dogs and would be best in a home with another loving, confident dog. I will just need the love I have been craving, so if I look like your next family member then you better fill out the adoption application soon!! I can't wait to meet you :D Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Hi, I'm Luna Bear! I'm a 8 year old Great Pyrenese mix. I'm an older lady and have been in the shelter system for almost 3 years...I'm a lady of leisure and independence. I appreciate my own space, and while I may not be the life of the dog park, I offer a mellow companionship that's hard to find. I prefer a quiet home where I can relax and be myself. I'm not one for other dogs or cats, but I promise to fill your life with a unique kind of love.

Story
Duke is a 1 year Pyr pup that loves to snooze and hang outside. He is excellent around children of all ages, including infants. He is great on walks, house trained, kennel trained. He is not neutered due to the recommended age being 18 months for bone development, so because of this I am waiving a rehoming fee if he goes to the right home. He gets along great with other dogs and loves to play. He has not really been exposed to cats, but he's a very docile dog and has never shown aggression toward anything or anyone. He is submissive and very lovable, if you call him over he will gladly sit on your lap.
