My story

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

Meet Riker, your future best friend and built-in happiness booster.

Riker is a kind, playful boy with a heart full of love and a tail that never stops wagging. He absolutely lives for playtime, especially when a game of fetch is involved. Toss a ball and you’ll see his joyful, fun-loving personality shine as he happily runs it back, ready for “just one more throw.”

When playtime winds down, Riker’s favorite role is being your ultimate love buddy. He enjoys staying close, soaking up affection, and reminding you how good it feels to have a loyal companion by your side. He has a gentle, sweet nature that makes him easy to fall for and even easier to love.

If you’re looking for a dog who’s equal parts fun and affectionate, Riker is ready to be your partner in play and your cuddle companion at home. Come meet him and see how quickly he steals your heart.

Additional adoption info

HSSM is home to over 300 pets on any given day, most of which are looking for new forever homes! Your new best friend could be waiting at HSSM right now. Our beautiful, 41,000 square foot facility is currently open to the public. HSSM is open for adoptions Tuesday – Friday from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. No appointment is necessary to adopt, however, adoptions are first-come, first served. You must come to HSSM to complete your adoption and make sure you bring a photo ID, as it is required to complete adoption paperwork.
Our adoptable animals page is self-updating and displays ALL of HSSM’s adorable adoptable pets from “pocket pets” to birds and of course the hundreds of dogs and cats currently calling HSSM home! See one you like? Make sure you note your favorite’s name and animal ID number so that HSSM staff and volunteers can easily find him/her when you come in!
Adoptions are cut off every day about 30 minutes prior to closing and possibly earlier if volume is high. Weekends are busy and you may have to wait more than an hour (especially in the afternoons) so please be prepared.
