Location
RHS does not have a physical location. All our pets are in foster homes with our volunteers. We are sometimes confused with the Richardson Animal Shelter, which is the public animal services organization for Richardson, TX.
Adoption Fees
Our adoption fees are $250 for adult dogs, $300 for puppies (less than 1 year) and $125 for cats. All our pets are up to date on shots and heartworm preventative, spayed or neutered and microchipped. Other health conditions are identified, treated and disclosed to applicants. The adoption fee goes toward partially defraying these vet costs.
Meeting Pets
RHS does not have a physical shelter; all our pets are in foster homes. As of March 2020, we have had to change our adoption process due to COVID-19, so please see the revised adoption process here.
We hope to get back to having our “Meet the Pets” events soon. Please see the event calendar for the next MTP event. We post the pets that are expected to be at that weekend’s event on our Facebook page on Friday evenings.
Surrendering a Pet
Our first priority is rescuing pets that are currently in shelters. However, if you have a pet you want to rehome, you may complete this form to be considered. Since we are foster home based, intake is dependent on whether we have an open foster home.
