My story

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

This is Zelda, a very sweet and outgoing French Bulldog 6-7 years old.  Zelda is the last of the 12 frenchies we had taken in from Animal Control from a cruelty and neglect case.  She was confiscated from a "breeder" and most of them were in terrible shape (including Zelda).  She had heartworms and two tumors.  One tumor was on her hind quarters and the other one was on one of her back legs.  It has taken us some time to get her healthy and ready to be listed for adoption.  The tumor on her hind quarters was cancer.  Thankfully, we were able to remove it all.  The one on her back leg was removed and tested negative for cancer.  She successfully underwent treatment for heartworms and is now heartworm free and on prevention.  Through all of this, Zelda has been a complete trouper.  It has never slowed her down and all she wants is attention.  She will be such a great companion for some lucky home.  She knows some basic commands and is good with other dogs -older, gentle children will be fine, we do not know about cats.  She is up to date with shots, spayed, on heartworm prevention and crate trained.  If you would like to give Zelda the home she deserves, please complete an adoption application at www.myhstc.org



Adoption fee is $85 and includes all veterinary care



If you have never adopted from us before, we do screen all applicants prior to a meeting.  To be screened, please visit our website at www.myhstc.org and complete an application.



We do allow out of state adoptions.  However, we do not ship nor transport sight unseen pets for many reasons.  We require travel in person adoption.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The adoption fee for dogs is $85 and cats $75 (we will discount if more than one pet is adopted at the same time or the adoptee is taking on some type of medical care). We do allow out-of-state adoptions, however, transportation is the responsibility of the adopter.

We require a completed adoption application with a vet reference provided. We screen all applications prior to a meet and greet and we will call your vet to verify your information. Adoption applications are approved on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration matching the needs of the pet to an owner. Some long distance adoptions may also require a home visit from a local animal rescuer in the adopter’s area.

HSTC is an all volunteer organization - we have no paid staff and we DO NOT have a shelter. The majority of our pets are in individual foster homes with fosters who work full time jobs - some of our dogs are in boarding at one of our vet's offices. We make every effort to respond to questions and make contact on applications within 24-48 hours of receiving them. Please be patient with us.

Go meet their pets

HSTC partners with the local PetSmart store in Albany Georgia in adopting our cats into permanent homes. We rotate our cats every two weeks to keep them from getting too bored or stressed while in the adoption center. Our foster homes are happy to work with anyone that would like information on any of our cats that are not currently in rotation and housed at the PetSmart adoption center. Please do not hesitate to email us for information on how to meet your new best friend!

HSTC holds small adoption events at PetSmart in Albany, GA on the first and third weekends of each month where you can meet some of our dogs available for adoption. PetSmart Charities holds national adoption events during the months of February, May, September and November and HSTC participates in each of these national events. HSTC does not hold our normal first and third weekend events during the months of the national adoption events. We are happy to schedule a meet and greet with potential adopters who would like to meet particular dogs once an application is approved.
