Rabies Vaccination

The new owner is required to have the animal vaccinated by a veterinarian of their choice.  A certificate of vaccination is required within 30 days of adoption.

Exceptions:

The total amount may be reduced if the pet is already spayed or neutered. The fee may be higher if the pet required specialized veterinary care prior to adoption. Occasionally, WHS has grants available that assist Senior Citizens with adoption fees.

Application & References:

Our shelter strives to make sure that each animal goes to a permanent, responsible and loving home.  Non-local adopters are required to provide references from your veterinarian, local animal shelter, animal control agency, or rescue group. 

All pets are not ready to go home the same day.  They must spayed or neutered and micro chipped before they are allowed to go home. This is a Texas state law.
