Pippin’s FAQs

What is Humane Society of Terrell County’s adoption process?

All HSTC pets are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, heartworm tested, dewormed and on monthly prevention medications for heartworms and fleas; it is our goal to make sure all pets are healthy while under our care. The adoption fee for dogs is $85 and cats $75 (we will discount if more than one pet is adopted at the same time or the adoptee is taking on some type of medical care). We do allow out-of-state adoptions, however, transportation is the responsibility of the adopter.  We require a completed adoption application with a vet reference provided.  We will call your vet to verify your information. Adoption applications are approved on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration matching the needs of the pet to an owner. Some long distance adoptions may also require a home visit from a local animal rescuer in the adopter’s area.  HSTC does not have a shelter!! We are a network of foster homes in the Dawson (Terrell), Alban
