We are a 501(c)3 non-profit voluntary organization dedicated to the humane treatment and improving the welfare of animals. We exist soley by the donations of time, money and adoption fees. We do not receive federal, state or local tax dollars. Our Mission, through our Foster/Adoption Program is to rescue, assist with and provide for the health and welfare of animals that have been abused, neglected, abandoned, surrendered, lost or injured.
Talk to everyone in your home to ensure they are all committed to adopting a new pet. Fill out our online application, by submitting it, you are essentially signing it. Or if you prefer, you can print the application and mail it to us, the mailing address is on the application. The Humane Society of Caroline County will then check the personal references and veterinarian references that you provide us. Once your references check out, we will contact you to schedule a home visit with the pet you would like to adopt. If the visit goes well and you want to adopt, you can pay the adoption fee and leave with the pet. Upon receipt of your check/cash of an adopted animal, the adoptee assumes all responsibility for the care of the adopted animal. This includes but, is not limited to veterinary care, booster shoots, and/ or veterinarian office visits. HSCC will turn over all medical records and will have been responsible for any Spay/Neuter and inoculations that bring the animal up to date on care at the time of adoption. The final and most important step is to love, care for and enjoy your new family member for the rest of its life and please remember us when you want to adopt your next wonderful companion.
