Story
Estimated age: 1 yearSex: FemaleSize: Small-medium (25-30 lbs)Breed: Terrier mixKid friendly: YesDog friendly: YesCat friendly: UnknownEnergy level: MediumLeash skills: Work in progress!Keeps a clean kennel: Sometimes!Her Story:Bella is a sweet young pup who was rescued in the nick of time! Thanks to a good samaritan's eagle eyes, Bella was spotted on the road. When she disappeared, her savior kept searching until she was found again - she had crawled underneath their car out of fear. At first, we assumed she was a puppy, and looking at her sweet face and smaller stature, it's easy to see why. But according to her teeth, she's at least a year old. We'd be surprised if she got much bigger than her petite 25-30ish pounds.Get to Know Her: Bella is a fun and enthusiastic player. She enjoys toys but she likes affection from humans even more. So far, she's never met a stranger; every human she spots is a potential playmate. Bella has done well with meeting all the dogs we've thrown her way! She has met adult dogs larger than her and small breed puppies - although her play style can be rambunctions at times, she doesn't discriminate when it comes to making new friends and is equally receptive to males and other females. At her estimated one year of age, the puppy energy is undeniably present. However, she's capable of compartmentalizing her play and makes sure to be full of manners when she's supervised indoors or as office dog even while she wrestles, leaps, and rolls outside. She's happy to lay on the couch in our office, cuddle up to a big stuffed toy, and doze off listening to the ring of the phone and the clacking of the keyboard. Her social skills with people are admirable! She may need some guidance when it comes to being around smaller children solely due to her playfulness and inital excitement, but her sweet and eager to please nature bodes well for her ability to quickly pick up on some manners! We'd pegged her as a hyper dog when she first arrived, but as she's been here now for just over a month and spends a ton of time every day playing, expending energy with her friends, and gaining confidence, her energy level has evend out to what we see today - that is, an enthusiastic gal who can read the room and know when to chill vs romp.With Bella's ideal mid-size, joyful outlook on life, and social attitude, we know she'd make the perfect dog for lots of people.

Open Wednesdays-Fridays 12noon-7pm. Open Saturdays-Sundays 10am-4pm.

Story
Hi there, I'm Jesse Spano. Life in the shelter is okay, but I dream of a home where I can be my sweet, friendly, and cuddly self. I love to play, give kisses, and curl up for a good nap. I've got a heart full of love to share. I might not be the star of 'Saved By The Bell', but I promise to be the star of your life. Why should you adopt me? Because I'm ready to give unconditional love, loyalty, and endless cuddles. I promise, you won't regret letting me into your life. 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 ##2318636##
