My story

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

Hello there, I'm Rhaenyra! I'm a sweet, friendly gal who loves to play. Toss a ball and watch me chase it with joy. I'm always ready for a game of fetch or a fun romp around the yard. But don't let my playful side fool you, I'm equally fond of cuddling. There's nothing I love more than snuggling up close, giving you my paw to hold, and enjoying a quiet moment together. I'm a perfect balance of energy and calm, always ready to adapt to your mood. Adopting me means gaining a loyal companion, a playmate, and a cuddle buddy all rolled into one. Won't you give me a chance to fill your life with love and laughter?

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Falling in love with a pet is easy and pet ownership is very rewarding. Adopting a pet, however, is a big decision. Dogs, cats, and other furry friends require a lot of time, money, and commitment. Our experienced adoption counselors will gladly help you find an animal that's likely to be a good fit for your lifestyle and living arrangements.

Adoption Fees:
Puppies (six months and younger): $150
Dogs: $85
Senior Dogs (7 years and older): $55
Heartworm Treated Dog: $135
Kittens (six months and younger): $85
Cats: $65
Senior Cats (7 years and older): $25


The adoption fee includes the cost of spaying or neutering your pet, micro-chipping, annual vaccinations and a rabies vaccination. There is an additional $13 fee for a Sarasota County rabies tag and registration for Sarasota County residents. Dogs must go home with a leash and collar and cats must go home in a carrier; all are available in our retail store.

Once you've decided that you're ready to make the commitment, check out our website at www.hssc.org to search our adoptable animals.
