Hi!! Apollo here. I'm a big, sweet, loving baby! I am told I am also a bit goofy. I think that makes me extra special. I love attention, treats and being around humans. The staff says I am "connected at the hip." I just want them to know I love them. I can be a little shy at first, but once I know you, I will love you unconditionally and always. When asked to sit, I do it excitedly. I am still trying to figure out leash walking, but I am great in a kennel overnight and I am potty-trained. I am looking for a family to call my own. Will you come meet me? I can't wait to meet you. 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 request an appointment to meet me. 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 Minneapolis, MN areas at least 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 and we will call you at the time of the visit once it is confirmed. For long distance transports, there is an additional $100 fee to cover the cost of the transport ($65) and a health certificate from a veteinarian ($35). Going that last mile home for our sweet pets! show less

Hi,I'm Argyle! I'm the most sweetest, loving, and affectionate cat around!! I love to get belly rubs and play with my best friend Sage!  I have tested positive for Feline Leukemia.

Howdy! I'm Buckeye Unfortunetly, I was found on the side of the road in Morrisville with a buddy. We were left with our bed and food :(( But not to worry, that sad start in life doesn't effect me in the slightest! I am in a foster home and they are taking the best care of me and helping me become the bestest boy around! My foster family says I do great on a leash, love to play with other dogs, and I love playing ball! I'm a sweet boy, around 8 months old and I don't think I will get much bigger! I look to be maybe a Beagle/Bulldog mix but that's a guess. I will most likely be medium sized around 30-35 lbs at most.

Hi, I'm Cocoa! I'm a sweet lady. I came to the shelter with my 3 babies and we were all malnourished, dehydrated, and just in really rough shape.

Hi! I’m Cyrus! I’m about 2 years old and look to be maybe a Doberman/Lab mix, but that’s just a guess! I’m a very happy boy and I love to play!  I’m very sweet and would do great in training (as I will do just about anything for a treat ). I’d do great in an active family, someone who can take me on daily walks and help me get out some energy. I do good with other dogs, but the shelter still reccomends we do a meet & greet if I'm going to be in a home with other dogs. I've spent the last 4 weeks at a training facility getting hands on training to be the bestest boy! I kow how to sit, lay down, and walk well on a leash!

Hey...I am Fischer! Thank you for taking a moment to read more about me. As my name suggests, I loooove the water! On a hot summer day, you can find me splashing in the kiddie pool or playing with the hose! Who doesn't love playing in the water? I am looking for a swimming buddy, fishing mate or if you need a lifeguard, I am your guy. The staff tells me I need some more confidence. I am working on it, but know the right family will build it right up. I really like other dogs, but takes me a little time to feel comfortable - might be the confidence thing. If you're looking to add some energy into your life, look no further! I'm full of energy and can't wait to play with you. I can't wait to meet you. The results are in! Our breed test show we are 27% American Pit Bull Terrier, 25% German Shepherd, 12% American Staffordshire Terrier, 11% Bloodhound, 8% Labrador Retriever, 5% American Bulldog, 4% Boxer, 4% Basset Hound, 2% Boston Terrier, and 2% Chow Chow! Which equals out to be 100% very good dogs! To apply to adopt from Polk County Humane Society, you can use the adoption application, process and links that you will find on this page: polkcountyhumanesociety.org/adopt. Some pets are in foster homes or may already have a meet & greet scheduled, so be sure you have looked at our adoption process, completed the adoption application and use the link on that page to request an appointment before you come to the Humane Society. Our adoption application form is simple and there is a place for you to ask any questions you have about our pets on the form. We look forward to receiving your adoption application and setting up a meet and greet soon. show less
