Our Mission

The Siouxland Humane Society (SHS) is Siouxland’s only open admission full service Shelter, caring for thousands of pets each year. SHS takes great pride in finding forever homes for one-hundred-percent of the adoptable pets. Along with the homeless pets cared for each year, the SHS also serves the people of Siouxland through its many programs and services, some of which include adoption/surrender, spay/neuter assistance, humane education, veterinary/food/sheltering assistance, cruelty/neglect investigation and so much more.

Adoption Policy

ADOPTION INFORMATION The placement of adoptable pets into loving, caring homes, thereby enhancing the bond between pets and people is the primary goal of the Siouxland Humane Society Adoption Program. We focus on education so that every pet owner can benefit from their contact with the Shelter, whether or not they adopt a pet from us. Our knowledgeable staff is here to assist you in choosing a pet that is right for you and your family. Matching the needs of the pet with the potential owner, as well as responsible pet ownership education, helps to ensure the successful placement of Shelter pets. Visit our Shelter, tour the kennels with a staff member, and note which pet you are interested in. You can visit with the pet in one of our visitation rooms or our outdoor courtyard. We encourage everyone in the household (including other pets) to meet the new pet before making a decision. Should you decide to adopt, our staff will ask you to complete an Adoption Questionnaire and meet with an adoption counselor. ADOPTION FEES While you can’t put a price tag on a lifetime of hugs, kisses, companionship and unconditional love, there are costs involved in caring for a healthy pet. When you adopt a pet from the Siouxland Humane Society, we’ve already performed procedures that are critical for maintaining his or her good health. These important benefits are provided to you in the price of the adoption which include the following: • Initial Preventative Vaccinations • Deworming • Microchipping • Free Veterinary Health Exam Cats/Kittens $55 – $75 - $100 - $150* Dogs/Puppies $95 – $135 – $165 - $195 – 300* • Price varies based on breed, age, spay/neuter status and veterinary costs. Higher fees go to help other pets who wait months to find homes. • Prices may be less than those listed above for Cats/Kittens/Dogs/Puppies if the fee has been reduced from donations to our Sponsor a Pet Program.
