Dakota's Story

Dakota is a sweet Chihuahua with a slightly more outgoing personality than those that came with him. He came from a home with many other dogs, so while he’s a bit more confident, the big changes in his world can still feel overwhelming at times.<br/><br/>He enjoys being around people and is quicker to show his friendly side, but he may still need a little patience as he adjusts to new surroundings and routines. With reassurance and consistency, Dakota continues to come out of his shell more each day.<br/><br/>Dakota is scheduled to be neutered on 4/16/26, giving him a great start toward a healthy future. He would thrive with an adopter who understands that even confident dogs need time to decompress and feel secure. With love and stability, Dakota is sure to become a loyal and affectionate companion.

Humane Society of Harrison County's Adoption Policy
An adoption application MUST be completed prior to an adoption. This document can be found on our web page www.hshc-paws.org at the bottom of the webpage under quick links. We will need time to process these applications, so if you are coming from out of town, please send them in ahead of your visit. Animals too young for spaying or neutering may NOT be adopted outside of Harrison County, and we can not respond to inquiries asking for exceptions. No pet that has not been altered will be adopted outside of our county due to Texas State law requiring all pets to be altered that come from a shelter or rescue. If they are to young we will adopt out locally so they can be brought back for surgery when they are old enough. Dog adoptions are $100 plus a $50.00 deposit for a spay/neuter surgery. Total adoption fee $150.00. Once the surgery is completed and we receive paperwork back from the veterinarian's office, we will refund you back your deposit. Cat adoptions are $65.00 plus a $35.00 deposit for a spay/neuter surgery. Total adoption fee $100.00. Once the surgery is completed and we receive paperwork back from the veterinarian's office, we will refund you back your deposit. Please call 903 938-7297 if interested in adopting a particular pet, or send us an email at hshcpaws@gmail.com
