My story

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

From his Volunteer Adoption Ambassador: "Yip Yap is super sweet, has lots of energy and wants lots of love! Is definitely a front-seat dog and loves riding in the car, and playing in the creek. Loves to play fetch and tug of war, and belly rubs as well. Super smart, seems to pick up on training quick. Yip Yap loves the water, he swam some in the pond, and he met and LOVED Aubie :). He seemed to pull more today, maybe because he was in a new place. I ran with him some and he hardly pulled at all while we were running. Yip Yap loves to play tug of war and squeaky toys, he would get super excited when he found out how to make them squeak. Yip Yap LOVES scratches on his neck behind his ear. He didn't love the bath, but didn't hate it either and did really well overall."

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.
