Story
Hi, I'm Thane! I'm still a pup, but I've got a big heart full of love. I'm sweet as can be and I love making friends. I'm playful, and I love toys, especially the squeaky ones. I'm not just about fun and games though, I also enjoy quiet times for cuddles. Life in a shelter is okay, but I dream of a home where I can share my love and joy. If you're looking for a loyal friend who'll bring happiness into your life, then I'm your pup! 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 ##2335846##

Story
Meet Hagrid! Hagrid is a big ol’ sweetheart and a true gentle giant at 100 pounds of love and sloppy kisses. With his mild and laid-back nature, he’s the perfect companion for someone who appreciates a calm and loving dog. He’s about 5 years old and a Great Pyrenees/lab mix. His foster got his dna test done!This big boy enjoys following his favorite person around and being part of your day-to-day life. Hagrid seems to get along well with other dogs, but may be better suited as a loyal solo companion. Hagrid needs a loving family that is willing to provide additional care for him in the future if need be. He has been diagnosed with a MRSP skin infection that may require ongoing care and medication throughout his life to keep him itch free and comfortable. Although MRSP can be treated and cured, there is also a possibility that ongoing treatment may be required. Hagrid is currently responding to his treatment and is a happy, go lucky boy! Are you ready to welcome this big bundle of love into your family and give him the extra care down the road if he needs it?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. If you are seeing our pets posted in your state, that's because you live near a transport stop, they are not currently at that location. Petfinder lists our pets as 'Out of Town' pets at other locations, and Adopt-a-Pet lists our location as a Transport stop. Those are currently the only options they offer to make this clear, so we put this description we've put at the bottom to explain it. You can read more about transport here: www.charmingpetrescue.org/transportWe understand transport is not an option for everyone, but we offer it at the cost we pay the transport company for those who wish to adopt from us.March 3, 2025, 11:06 am
