Happy Tails: Sonny (aka Sunny)

We are thrilled to share that Sunny, now Sonny. has officially settled into his forever home!

His adopters report that, “Sonny is doing wonderfully and already showing just how comfortable he feels in his new surroundings. He is incredibly smart, catching on quickly, and making himself right at home.”

And yes, he has a brand-new name! His family renamed him Sonny after Sonny Bono, which we think suits him perfectly.

Sonny truly hit the jackpot with his new family. He now has an amazing setup, including a fully fenced half-acre yard where he can safely run, play, and explore to his heart's content. It’s clear he is already loved and cherished, and we couldn't be happier for him.

Thank you to Sonny's adopters for opening their hearts and home to this special boy. Wishing you many years of adventures, tail wags, and happy memories together!

Happy tails, Sonny! We can't wait to hear more updates from your new life.

"Blep" vs. "Mlem":

Did you know that a “blep” is when a cat sticks its tongue out. A “mlem” is when a cat licks its lips or nose. Both are normal, adorable cat behaviors, and Skelly has been known to do both.

Skelly is available for adoption! Read more about her here: https://hstt.org/adopt/cat/skelly/

We now interrupt your doom scrolling to bring you… Floki. 🐾

Almost one month in the shelter, and we’re still wondering how this sweet boy hasn’t found his family yet. Floki is friendly, loves other dogs, and has the kind of goofy, happy personality that makes every day better.

Come meet Floki—you might just find your new best friend. ❤️🐶

✨ Maddie is still available for adoption! ✨

If you're looking for a puppy who is equal parts sweet, silly, and snuggly, this girl might just steal your heart.

In her foster home, she's become known for her adorable quirks, like pouncing on her stuffed Lamb Chop toy like a kitten and checking behind mirrors to find the "other puppy" she sees in the reflection. When she's not making everyone laugh, she's happiest curled up with her people, gazing up at them with her sweet eyes and rolling into a belly-up position for maximum comfort.

She loves playing fetch and proudly carries her toys back to her bed to enjoy her prize. When she wants attention, she'll simply follow you around, make eye contact, and flop at your feet in the cutest way possible.

For such a young puppy, she's already impressing everyone with how quickly she's learning. She's doing great with potty training, settles nicely in her crate, and is working on commands like sit and "go potty."

Her foster believes she'll thrive in a home where she can be a true member of the family and spend lots of time with her people. She has so much love to give and is ready to bring joy, laughter, and plenty of cuddles to her future home.

Interested in meeting Maddie? Contact us to schedule an appointment and come see if she's the perfect match for your family!

Maddie is 3 months old and weigh 33 lbs. She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. Her adoption fee is $200. Please email [email protected] for more information.

*We do not know what breed they are or might be. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each dog based on personality and the behavior we’ve observed rather than a breed label.

🦭🐶 Are we sure Cody isn’t secretly a seal?

We can’t stop laughing at the resemblance, but what we really can’t understand is why this sweet boy has been waiting over a month for a home. Cody is goofy, lovable, and guaranteed to make you smile every single day.

Come meet him—you might just find your new best friend. ❤️

UPDATE: Dave and Dallas have been adopted!

Meet Deacon, Dave & Dallas!

These three adorable 2-month-old kittens may only weigh about 2 pounds each, but they have BIG personalities! Friendly with kids, curious about everything, and always ready for their next adventure, these little ones keep life fun and entertaining.

They love wrestling with each other, chasing strings, climbing to the highest spot they can find, and exploring every corner of the room. A cat tree or climbing shelves would be a dream come true for these active kittens! They are also very vocal and aren't shy about letting you know when they want attention, food, or playtime.

Their favorite toys include strings, feather wands, and balls, but honestly, they'll turn just about anything into a game. If you're looking for playful, affectionate, and energetic kittens to bring laughter and excitement into your home, these three are ready to steal your heart!

All 3 kittens will be available for adoption starting at 1:00 PM tomorrow, 06/19.
All adoptions are first come, first served. We will have a sign-up sheet posted on our front door prior to opening, however please keep in mind that once you add your name to the list, you must remain on the premises (either in front of the building or in your car) to keep your place in line. If you leave, you will lose your spot.

All kittens have been spayed/neutered, microchipped, and are up to date on vaccines. Their adoption fee is $100 each (or 2 for the price of one!).

UPDATE: FLOWER HAS BEEN ADOPTED!

🌸 FLOWER HOUR LIVE! 🌸
Want to get to know Flower better? Join us for our next Flower Hour Live!
📅 06/18 | ⏰ 11 am
Ask questions • See her personality • Fall in love

Since arriving at HSTT, Flower has been finding her footing, but she's shown us something important along the way. She comes alive around the right company.
She's noticeably more confident and social when she has a calm, friendly dog by her side. If you have a resident dog who fits that description, Flower might be exactly who you've both been waiting for.
Flower's looking for a peaceful household. She'll thrive with someone patient, consistent, and willing to let her grow into herself at her own pace. In return, you get a hiking partner, a couch companion, and a beautiful dog who stops to smell the flowers.

Ready to help Flower bloom? Visit HSTT and meet her today.
