My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi! My name is D.D.! I am a chunky girl who loves being out in the sun with a tennis ball in my mouth. I love to play fetch, but I do occasionally like to chew on the tennis balls too! I love going on walks and being active but I would rather lay in the sun with you all day. I would really love to be in the house where it is just me and you. I have been in the shelter for a while and I will need time to adjust to my new home but I know we will be able to snuggle on the couch in no time.

*D.D.'s Adoption fee has been covered by a wonderful little girl who ran a lemonade stand as a fundraiser for her!!

More about this rescue

The Humane Society of Harris County was founded in 1991 and has continually serviced Harris County and the surrounding area for 24 years. HSHC currently provides shelter and adoption opportunities for homeless dogs and cats though a small network of foster homes and a small kennel on loan to us by a Harris County resident. Just over 600 animals have found new, permanent homes since 2008. In addition, we provide numerous outreach programs including:
• HSHC Pet Food Pantry, which is run in coordination with the Harris County Meals-on-Wheels program. The program has distributed over 4,000 pounds of food since its inception.
• “Tag You’re It”, a pet identification initiative that encourages residents to properly identify their pets by offering low cost microchips and tags. Over 200 resident dogs and cats have been identified through this program.
• Dog Obedience Classes to help local residents train their dogs and overcome behavior problems that cause owners to relinquish their animals to shelters.
• “Helping Hounds” a program run in cooperation with the Muscogee County Youth Development Campus pairing youth offenders with shelter dogs. The program is built on the premise that dogs and people together can become the catalyst for a positive change in each other’s lives.
