A birthday tradition that gives back!
For her second birthday, Quinn and her family celebrated by hosting another fundraiser for the animals at HSDC! They made this same thoughtful gesture for Quinn’s first birthday, and we love seeing this tradition continue year after year.
We are so grateful to Quinn and her family for choosing to make her special day a little brighter for the animals in our care.
Happy 2nd birthday, Quinn!

Celebrating Darlene Kilcher Burks– Our Employee of the Year!
Some people are the heart of an organization, and for HSDC, that person is Darlene. For nearly 30 years, Darlene has been our constant. She is our nucleus - the person who quietly keeps us connected, grounded, and, quite frankly, keeps all our s*** together! She doesn't seek recognition or the spotlight. She simply shows up, day after day, with a positive attitude, a kind heart, and an unwavering commitment to our animals, our customers, and each other. She provides the kind of customer service that makes people feel genuinely cared for, and she makes all of us better just by being here.And here's what makes Darlene even more special: She doesn't have to work here. She chooses to. She chooses HSDC, our mission, our animals, and this team. And she has continued choosing us for nearly three decades. That kind of loyalty, love, and dedication is something you simply cannot put a price on.
Darlene, you are the glue that holds us together, the calm in our chaos, and one of the greatest gifts this organization has ever had. We are so incredibly lucky that you continue to choose us.
Thank you for everything you do, especially the countless things nobody sees. We love you, Darlene! 💕

This Adopt a Senior Pet Month, we're celebrating all the wonderful older cats and dogs waiting for someone to give them a chance. Senior pets have so much personality, companionship, and love to share, and they deserve to spend their golden years feeling safe, happy, and loved.
Don't overlook the gray faces and graying whiskers. Your next great love might just be a senior!
Visit HSDC or go to our website to meet our adoptable cats and dogs!
