Adoption Center

We encourage you to visit the shelter on a regular basis to meet the available pets. Because we have a high volume of pets arriving each week, the website may not show all of the available pets

Adding a dog or cat to your family can be a 20 year commitment. Different breeds or groups display particular characteristics. It is important to research breeds, and realistically consider the time, space, training needs and resources you can regularly provide for any particular pet before you adopt. Listed below is general guideline information. If you have specific questions, please call us at 772-461-0687 or e-mail at info@hsslc.org.
