Xylo's Story

This is Xylo... This older gentleman has been here in our shelter since July 2023, due to a housing issue. Xylo is 7+ years, and 66 lbs, he's a true shadow dog, wanting to be by your side & getting all the loving. This big guy knows sit, paw, and down. Xylo loves to please his person. He can be dog selective and is recommended to be the only pet. We are recommending he go to a home with no small children due to his strength and size.<br/><br/>Update 4/27/24 Xylo had a suspicious growth removed last week, but thankfully the biopsy came back that it was benign (Not cancer)! Now he's back to acting like a puppy again and ready for his furever family. Primary Color: Brown Brindle Secondary Color: White Age: 9yrs 8mths 0wks Animal has been Neutered

The Humane Society of Atlantic County's Adoption Policy

For general shelter questions, please contact shelter@humanesocietyac.org. If you are interested in adopting from HSAC, there are a few things you should know. If you currently have a dog at home, it is strongly recommended that you bring your pet in to meet with the animal you are planning to adopt. This will be a requirement for most adoptions (and required for ALL dog/puppy adoptions) done here at our facility. It is very stressful for humans and pets when things don't work out after the new pet has arrived. A vet and/or home check may be required. In order for us to be able to adopt an animal to you, we will need for you to bring a valid state-issued photo I.D. and documentation about your residence. If you rent, we must see a lease agreement stating that pets are allowed on the property. If you own your home, we must see proof of ownership - a tax bill, deed or mortgage coupon. We cannot accept utility bills or any other form of address verification. We accept cash and major credit cards. Personal checks are not accepted. Links to the downloadable pre-adoption forms are provided below. Please fill out your adoption form completely, as any incomplete forms will only delay the process further. Prices and policies are subject to change at management's discretion. Adoptions of pit bulls and mixes must be approved by management for the safety of the dogs. Kittens and Cats - $100 INCLUDES: • Spay and neuter • Rabies vaccine • Distemper vaccine • Feline leukemia test • Microchip • De-worming Puppies (under 8 months old) - $400 INCLUDES: • Spay and neuter • Distemper/Parvo combo vaccine • Rabies vaccine • 1 mo Heartworm prevention • De-worming • Microchip • Martingale collar and leash Adult Dogs - $200 INCLUDES: • Spay and neuter • Distemper/Parvo combo vaccine • Rabies vaccine • Heartworm test and preventive • De-worming • Microchip • Martingale collar and leash Senior Dogs (over 7 years old) - $100 INCLUDES: • Spay and neuter • Distemper/Parvo combo vaccine • Rabies vaccine • Heartworm test and preventive • De-worming • Microchip • Martingale collar and leash
