ADOPTIONS BY APPOINTMENT: Effective today, 3/25, we will be offering adoptions by appointment. With people being home often during this time, we do believe it can be used as an effective time to acclimate a new pet. Please keep in mind that if you do adopt, it will be important to help your new pet learn to be independent as well as soaking in all the love you can until things return to normal..

HOW IT WORKS: Visit our website, https://hssc.us/all-pets, where you can see basic information on our available pets. Call us at 563.388.6655 between 10am and 5pm and we can take it from there. All paperwork and formalities will happen over the phone or via email. Adoption fees for dogs is $105, and all felines are $20, including kittens.

AS WE SPEAK: We are working on uploading a "Meet your Match" program to our website, which will assign pets certain personality traits and describe their ideal characteristics in a new home to help you with your decision.

PLEASE BE PATIENT: This is an entirely brand new process to us that we are implementing for the sake of both our pets and our community, so please stick with us and help us identify areas of improvement..
