☃️ Do you want to build a snowman? ☃️ We have so many dogs just waiting for their turn to go home to play with you in the snow and then snuggle up by the fire 🤍

From zoomies in the snow to catching fresh snowflakes on their noses, these guys know how to make the most of the chilly season ❄️

We want to give the BIGGEST thank you to Precious Paws Veterinary Hospital and their clients for their incredible generosity this holiday season. Through their Giving Tree initiative, they collected donations to help support the animals in our care, and we are truly humbled by their kindness and the kindness of their amazing clients. 🫶🏼

To everyone who participated in the Giving Tree, please know that your generosity is helping save lives and brighten the future for so many animals. From all of us here at the Humane Society of Scott County, thank you for being such a vital part of our mission. 💞

✨Senior Spotlight✨ Kane here had his appearance on Channel 6 last week and wants to tell you why you should adopt him:

🍟 Loves French fries
🩶 Has the most adorable grey face
🐾 When you ask for his “paw”, he actually hears “lay down”
🥔 Following his “lay down”, immediately rolls over for belly rubs—he’s just the best potato ever
👀 Will keep a close eye on your meal while you’re eating so you don’t miss a single bite
🚽 And finally… what we all want in a new pet—he’s housebroken! 👏🏻

Kane is 8-years-old and weighs about 55 pounds. We think with his gentle demeanor that he would do well in most homes including those with other animals and kids!

🕰️ Visit us during adoption hours to meet with Kane 🤎
MWF: 12pm-5:30pm
Thursday: 2:30pm-5pm
Saturday + Sunday: 12pm-4:30pm

𝚃𝚑𝚊𝚗𝚔 𝚢𝚘𝚞, 𝚟𝚘𝚕𝚞𝚗𝚝𝚎𝚎𝚛𝚜! 🫶🏼🫂 We have such an amazing group of volunteers that not only spent their New Years Eve morning but also New Years morning to ensure as many dogs got out as possible!

Not only does this ensure the dogs don’t miss any time for socializing and enrichment, but it allows staff to focus on cleaning while volunteers spend time with dogs + allows everyone to get home quickly to spend the holidays with their family 💛✨

Right around 40 dogs were walked, enrichment was provided with nylabones, and as if that wasn’t already a MAJOR help—some volunteers then took laundry home to help with the overflow 🥹🧺

THANK YOU for spending the holidays with the pets in our care 💞🐶🐾

✨Buttercup pictured here absolutely loves his time with volunteers AND he’s currently available for adoption 😉✨

🚨Sweet Irish desperately needs your help— Irish is a sweet-natured girl who’s struggling more than ever at the shelter. While Irish adores children and dreams of being a loyal family companion, she’s asking for a home where she can be the only dog. Unfortunately, the shelter environment has been extremely overwhelming for her, and her mental health is rapidly declining.

Irish is currently being housed in a quiet room away from the other dogs to help reduce her stress, but she’s still finding it hard to cope. It absolutely pains us to see just how stressed she is and unfortunately, we only have so much extra space in the shelter we can move her to.

This special girl has so much love to give, and we know her perfect family is out there. She needs a home where she can relax, decompress, and truly shine. 🏡

If you’ve been looking for a dog who:
🐾 Loves kids and family time
🐾 Is happiest as the only pet in the home
🐾 Deserves a fresh start and a chance to heal

… then Irish could be the perfect match for you.

Time is of the essence for Irish. Please consider opening your heart and home to this deserving pup. If you can’t adopt, share her story—help us find her hero!

If you’re not in a position to adopt, but open to fostering—visit our website here to apply: hssc.us/foster

We are open TODAY from 2:30pm-5pm and tomorrow from 12pm-5:30pm.

Please ask for Irish by name when you come in ❤️‍🩹🍀

➡ Tune in every Wednesday night for Weather Dog during the 10:00 pm Local 4 News WHBF TV to meet an HSSC adoptable dog and get your precise dog walking forecast!

Thank you to our partners Andy McCray Local 4 News and our sponsor Rock Island Animal Hospital!

Our weather dog of the week is Wolfie! 🐺

Wolfie is a laid-back, independent spirit who's easy to handle and great on a leash. Once outside, she's all about exploring-sniffing every inch of the yard and marking her territory. She might need a little refresher on her commands, but she's always ready to hop into your lap for a quick pet before heading off on her next adventure.

Wolfie would thrive in a home with a big yard or with someone who loves regular walks. If you're looking for a companion who's easygoing, curious, and just the right amount of affectionate, Wolfie might be the perfect fit!

🌞🌦 Be sure to check the forecast before taking your pup out on a walk!

Happy New Year! 🪩 If your pet could set a 𝑝𝑎𝑤-𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 for the new year, what would it be? 🧐

Now, if YOU could set a 𝑝𝑎𝑤-𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 for the new year—what would it be? We have a few ideas if you’re unsure:

✨ Adopt a pet from your local shelter
✨ Open your home to temporarily foster a pet from your local shelter
✨ Get involved + volunteer—ask your local shelter how you can help.
✨ Donate—both in kind donations and monetary donations greatly help to care for incoming pets
✨ Spread the word! Sharing a shelters biggest needs on social media can lead to a lifesaving adoption or foster placement for an animal that desperately needs it!

We want to start the year off right with a 𝑁𝑒𝑤 𝑌𝑒𝑎𝑟 𝑃𝑎𝑤-𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠 adoption special! 👏🏻🎆

Adult Dogs (7+ months old - 6 years): $125
Senior Dogs (7+ years old): $65
🐶 All dogs are microchipped, up to date on age appropriate vaccines, heartworm tested, and spayed/neutered prior to adoption.

Adult Cats (7+ months old): $40
Senior Cats (7+ years old): $20
🐱 All cats are microchipped, up to date on age appropriate vaccines, and spayed/neutered prior to adoption.

Visit us during adoption hours to meet with Luke!

Our final week of ✨Meet the Team, Monday✨

Meet Sylvya!

Sylvya has been working in animal welfare for 1 year! She is currently a dog care technician but truly helps out wherever needed 🥹

Sylvya’s favorite adoptable animal is Kane—he’s a sweet old boy but always happy 🫶🏼

Sylvya’s fun fact is she LOVES to go kayaking 🚣🏼‍♀️

Sylvya’s favorite part of working in animal welfare is helping animals that need extra love 💕

Thank you, Sylvya, for your hard work and dedication to HSSC as both a staff member and your volunteer time prior to being hired. We (and the animals) are extremely grateful to have you a part of our team! ❤️

Rookie is a sweet three-year-old who's house-trained, enjoys fetch, and knows commands like sit, stay, lay down, and fetch! 🎾

Though she's a bit shy at first, Rookie is great on car rides and settles well in a home. She keeps a loose leash on walks, though she may need some space when passing other dogs.

Rookie would thrive in a quiet home without kids or other pets, where her playful side can really shine. If you're looking for a gentle companion with a lot to offer, Rookie is ready to meet you!

Visit us during adoption hours and be sure to mention Rookie by name if you’d like to meet her:

With our 2024 kitten season coming to an end, we want to thank all of our foster heroes that worked so tirelessly over the summer months to assist us in any way possible 💞

‼️ 1,530 animals were placed into foster care during 2024. Let’s break that down even farther:
🫂 360 foster parents onboarded
🐶 307 dogs
🐱 1,197 cats
🦜 7 birds
🐇 2 rabbits
🐁 17 small animals (mice, rats, guinea pigs, etc.)

We truly could not do this without fosters devoting so much of their time to save as many babies as possible! The long nights, the juggling of work and then coming home to care for kittens, the long middle of the night feedings, the heartbreak you feel when a tiny kitten just can’t fight any longer, seeing them through adoption, rearranging your schedule to coordinate pick ups, drop offs, vet checks, etc. THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts!

Kitten season can be overwhelming, but thanks to our incredible fosters, it’s also full of hope and love. You opened your hearts and homes to the tiniest and most vulnerable lives, giving them a chance to grow strong, healthy, and loved.

Because of YOU, countless kittens found the care they needed to thrive and prepare for their forever homes.

You’re more than fosters—you’re lifesavers, and we couldn’t do this without you. Thank you for being part of our team and helping us make a difference, one kitten at a time. ❤️🐱
