THE DOGS
(Updated July 3rd)


Below you'll find some of the friendly faces just waiting to smother you in wet kisses!

Some of the pets listed may have already been placed in good homes. We try to update this site regularly, so please visit us again or call (360) 757-0445 for more information. For adoption information, click HERE.

Please note that if an animal was brought in as a stray, it must remain at HSSV for 72 hours before it can be adopted. The date each animal was brought in to the shelter is listed below under the animal descriptions. All dogs must be spayed or neutered before they leave the shelter. If you are adopting from outside Skagit County, a location check of your property must be conducted before you can take the dog home.
