HSS does require a mandatory Preadopt Application, a veterinary reference, possible home inspection and introduction to other pets in the household (at the discretion of the foster guardian), then a signed legally binding contract -sealing the adoption of the animal to the new family.
*Only with an approved preadopt application, will a scheduled meet/greet be arranged.
All HSS animals will be spayed or neutered, current on vaccines, preventions and microchipped prior to an adoption.
Thank you for your patience and support for adopting a rescue animal!
