Attention: The safety of our adopters and volunteers is our highest priority. HART has cancelled all dog and cat adoption events until further notice, however we are still doing adoptions and looking for foster homes for our animals. Please submit an application online to adopt or foster a dog or cat. After we receive your online application, we will contact you as soon as possible regarding the dog or cat you are interested in.

Cross-Post Guidelines
We are happy to cross-post a few pets at a time for other rescue groups to give
those pets a better chance at finding new homes. However, because many of
our applicants do not readily grasp the concept of a cross-post and think these
are "HART dogs and cats," we require the following from groups that cross-post with us:
-
Rescue groups must be responsive to inquires they receive
via the HART website. When they are not, it reflects negatively on
HART.
-
Rescue groups may not solicit funds for their pets via the
HART website. By virtue of the inherently confusing nature of cross-posts,
this creates additional confusion with applicants and supporters, both
HART's and the cross-poster's.
-
Rescue groups must adopt out responsibly, which includes
requiring pets be spayed or neutered, interviewing applicants, visiting the
applicants' homes, and obtaining veterinary references.
Failure to meet any of these requirements will result in HART's refusal
to cross-post for an adoption organization.
