Jocko's Story

Hi, I'm Jocko! I'm around 2 years old and best guessed to be an Australian Cattle Dog/Terrier mix. I have nothing but love to give, even though my life didn't always look like this. Before coming here, I spent my days living on a short chain—but thankfully, I've been given a second chance at a much better life.<br/><br/>I do well with other dogs and even cats when introductions are slow and proper. I'm a happy, affectionate guy who's ready to enjoy the world. My only little quirk is that I can jump short fences, so I'll need leash walks or a taller fenced yard or maybe acreage to run on. If you're looking for a loyal companion who's excited to finally live life to the fullest, I'm your guy!<br/><br/>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.<br/><br/>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!<br/><br/>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
