Hampshire County Pet Adoption Program WHAT IS A FOSTER ORGANIZATION? A foster organization is quite different from a shelter. WHY ARE WE A FOSTER ORGANIZATION AND NOT A SHELTER?

The animals do not all stay in one place/facility, but rather are scattered among the homes of our volunteers. HCPAP has created a small network of foster homes that allows the pets to be able to live in a comfortable environment until they get adopted. So, HCPAP dogs and cats get to enjoy the life of beds, couches and backyards while they are waiting for their forever family. Fostering gives us t

he unique ability to match each animal with an appropriate owner. We are able to discover the personality of each individual animal and the type of environment they will flourish in. It allows us to determine how the animals will behave around dogs, cats, children, etc. It also allows us to discover any not so great behaviors. When animals are fostered they are socialized and learn the "DOs and DON'Ts" of living in a home. Overall, pets that are fostered are better prepared for adoption. WHERE DO OUR ANIMALS COME FROM? The animals in our rescue come from various places. Many are released to us by their owners. We also like to help out other rescues and shelters when possible. DO WE EUTHANIZE PETS IF THEY DON'T GET ADOPTED? The only times that we will consider euthanasia is in situations of severe health condition or severe aggression. We keep the pets in our rescue until they find their forever home. Many of the pets in our rescue will be with us for several months or even years before they get adopted. WHAT VETERINARY CARE DO HCPAP PETS RECEIVE? The pets that come into our rescue will receive all needed veterinary care. Visit our website for details. WHERE TO FIND US:

Because we are not a shelter there is no facility for you to come to. You can see our adoptable pets every other Saturday at PetSmart on Legge Blvd in Winchester, Virginia between the hours of 12:00 p.m. & 4:00 p.m. Keep an eye on our page for possible cancellations. THE PEOPLE BEHIND HCPAP

All HCPAP's volunteers have full time jobs and/or are full time students. Animal rescue by itself is like a full time job. We all have devoted the little spare time we have to finding homes for so many great animals. DO WE ONLY ADOPT OUT TO CERTAIN AREAS/STATES? No, we do not limit adoptions to certain areas or the surrounding states. If you live far away and are willing to drive the distance to adopt one of our dogs or cats, we will happily adopt out to you (assuming everything else, like your application, checks out).

**URGENT** if you adopted a dog from us between 2020-2023 then your pet may have a “Save this Life” microchip. Devastatingly and without notice, Save this Life has ceased service.

Please use the national database to search for your dog’s microchip. If you are unable to find it, then you need to register their existing microchip with a new service.

We are sorry for this unexpected situation. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help during this time.

Panda is still looking for her forever home 💜

She is a fun, energetic, and loving lady. She loves toys and will accumulate them in piles to show you. She wants nothing more than to snuggle right up against her person every night. Panda is a lazy lady at home but gets huge zoomies outside - it’s adorable!!!

Panda got an A+ recently at the cardiologist. We are 3 months out from her surgery and it was a success! We are so thankful for the donations received to help cover the cost. Panda is expected to have a normal life now 💜

If you’d like to welcome Panda into your home, email us [email protected]

On the eighth day of Christmas, we gift you Auggie!! Auggie is a young to middle aged pity mix - he’s giving pocket pity. He is an absolute sweet heart with his people (see video). Auggie came to us from an absolutely horrendous situation. He is totally blind likely due to horrible breeding and neglect. Auggie needs a very special home. Because of his blindness and neglect, he can be easily excited by the sound of other pets. He would do best in a home with no other pets. This boy absolutely adores his people!!! He deserves the warmest l, snuggliest, treat filled home. We know how incredibly hard it will be to place him but we know we can find a home for him.
