The Humane Society of Central Texas provides adoption, rescue and foster opportunities for the homeless animals at the Waco Animal Shelter located at 2032 Circle Road in Waco, Texas. Thanks to our community and supporters, even with an annual intake of about 4,000 animals, we have attained No Kill Status, meaning that at least 90% of animals that come into the shelter leave here alive for wonderful new homes!
1. Visit the Humane Society with every member of your household 2. Meet with a Pet Matchmaker. 3. Sign your Adoption Contract 4. Get your Gotcha Day Picture TakenIf your new pet is not yet spayed/neutered, they will need to stay at the shelter, and you can pick them up after surgery. This is the policy for both the Humane Society of Central Texas and the Waco Animal Shelter. Your animal cannot leave the facility without being spayed/neutered. You will not be able to take your animal to your veterinarian to have them spayed/neutered. Your animal will be attended to by the shelter's inhouse veterinarian. We will provide you with an escape-proof collar and sturdy leash to take your pet home, thanks to Greg May Honda! An Adoption Counselor will call you within a few days after adopting your pet to make sure everything is going well. She will be able to provide you with advice and direct you to resources if you need them to help your pet's transition into your home. Note that if you adopt one of our more challenging dogs, you may be offered professional training to ensure a smooth transition!
