About Romper

Hi there! I'm Romper, a 2-year-old German Shepherd mix with a heart full of love and energy! I found my way to my foster home a few months ago, a little underweight and needing some TLC, but now I'm all cleaned up and ready for my forever family. I weigh about 50 pounds, but I still think I'm a lap dog! I'm a smart cookie and learn quickly, and I absolutely adore toys, especially chew toys and playing tug-o-war. I get along wonderfully with other dogs, cats, and even goats, but chickens aren't my cup of tea.

Ideal Home

A home where I can run and play is ideal! I'm looking for a family who understands my energetic nature and can keep up with my zest for life.

Ongoing Health

I'm up-to-date on all my vaccinations and have been treated for fleas, ticks, and heartworms. I've also been spayed and microchipped.

Training & Support

I'm a quick learner and eager to please, so I should pick up on new things easily. I'm already a social butterfly with most animals, but it's best if we avoid chickens.

Application Details:

  • Applications start by contacting us through Wags.
  • You can find our adoption application online at www.polkcountyhumanesociety.org/adopt.
  • Please reserve an appointment online to ensure I'll be available to meet you.

Transporation

I'm currently located in Bolivar, Missouri. We offer transport to Denver, CO, Des Moines, IA, and the St. Louis area twice a month. For adopters in Colorado and Iowa, there's an additional $100 fee for transport and a health certificate. For St. Louis transport, the additional fee is $50 to help cover gas. We can also arrange virtual visits via FaceTime or other apps for potential adopters in these areas. Just request a virtual visit when you book your appointment!
