Additional adoption info

f you are interested in adopting from HSAC, there are a few things you should know.

If you currently have a dog at home, it is strongly recommended that you bring your pet in to meet with the animal you are planning to adopt. This will be a requirement for most adoptions (and required for ALL dog/puppy adoptions) done here at our facility. It is very stressful for humans and pets when things don't work out after the new pet has arrived. A vet and/or home check may be required.

In order for us to be able to adopt an animal to you, we will need for you to bring a valid state-issued photo I.D. and documentation about your residence. If you rent, we must see a lease agreement stating that pets are allowed on the property. If you own your home, we must see proof of ownership - a tax bill, deed or mortgage coupon. We cannot accept utility bills or any other form of address verification.

Adoptions of pit bulls and mixes must be approved by management for the safety of the dogs.

We accept cash and major credit cards. Personal checks are not accepted. Prices and policies are subject to change at management's discretion.

Cats and kittens are $100.
Dogs over 8 months old are $200.
Puppies under 8 months old are $400.
Senior dogs over 7 years old are $100.
