Canine Companions Available for Adoption

For information about our Adoption Policies and Requirements, please click here.

We try to keep our animal pages as current as possible, however, animals are adopted on a daily basis so availability changes frequently.  If you see an animal you are interested in, or want to check on other available animals, please call us or come in during our Adoption Center Hours!
Wish you could take them all home, but can't?  You can still provide our canine residents with all of the comforts of home while they are staying at HSCC by sponsoring their care through a Guardian Angelship.  Click here to become a Guardian Angel.  If you see this icon next to a dog below, click on it to see their Guardian Angel.
