Lonely Hearts Club Members are animals that have been at HSHP for over 30 days. In an effort to help them find homes, we have discounted their adoption fees!
While we are a no kill shelter and will not euthanize for space, it is not healthy for these animals to sit in a shelter setting for too long. Most animals will begin to decline in mental happiness which leads to physical deterioration. Some animals will begin to lose weight, hurt themselves trying to get out of their kennel, develop barrier reactivity, joint issues from being on concrete. We hate so see animals go through this horrible transition in life and want to do what we can to find them homes sooner rather than later.
PLEASE NOTE: SOME OF THESE ANIMALS MAY ALREADY BE ADOPTED!
This page can sometimes fall behind on adoptions that have already taken place during the week. Please make sure you look at the Adoptable Animals tab at the top to see if a certain Lonely Heart Member has been adopted or not! You can also give us a call or email to double check as well!


Meet Marley! Marley is a 1 year old, spayed female, German Shepherd / Labrador mix. Marley was previously owned by an elderly person and could not keep up with the high energy Marley has.
Marley definitely needs a home with routine and structure. She can become a little more hectic if she is in a setting that is unpredictable (like the shelter). She is very sweet and smart. She would make a great project for someone who is willing to work on her training. Once she gets through a training routine, she is going to be an amazing and loyal pooch!
Marley does get along with dogs that are smaller than her and not so rough. She does prefer to be the one in charge and would do better in a home with submissive dogs. She has not been tested with cats yet and we are not sure how she will do with them.
We would prefer Marley not go to a home with small children as she can be a bit too much at the moment and may knock them down.
Marley just needs someone to see past her shelter jitters and see the potential she has!

Meet Lucas! Lucas is a 3 year old, neutered male Shepherd mix.
THE CUTEST PUPPY FACED BOY!
Lucas is one of the staff favorites at HSHP! He was with us over a year ago and sadly returned due to the adopters no longer having time for him. Lucas loves people of all shapes and sizes! Though, it should be known that he may knock small children over. He loves most other dogs, but can have issues with other dogs that are too dominant.
He has kept his kennel cleaned while being here at the shelter.
This great boy will do wonderful in any home!

This pretty girl is a 1 year old spayed female Husky/Lab mix.
Irene is what you would expect for a 1 year old Husky. She's active and playful, and she needs plenty of exercise to keep her happy. She's not going to be a good fit for someone that doesn't have a lot of free time, or isn't capable of giving her the physical and mental stimulation that she needs. Irene will thrive with an active owner who can keep her on her toes!
Irene has been around other dogs and kids, and gets along with them all. She is not good with cats though and will not be adopted to a home with any. She doesn't know her size and tends to jump, which may knock over small children, so supervision will be needed until she can complete her training. Irene has received some training, but she still has some accidents inside and will need an owner willing to work with her on this.
Have you already fallen in love? Irene is up to date on her vaccinations and ready to go to her forever home! If you think this sweet girl could be the dog for you, stop by and meet her today!

**Meg is currently staying at Petsense in Hays, so head that way if you would like to meet her! ***
A terrifying monster - meet Meg! Meg is a 1 year old spayed female Domestic Shorthair cat.
Meg was named for the best movie ever, The Meg starring Jason Statham - but we didn't know how apt that name would be! When Meg is in sight of other cats she can become quite the terror. She's super sweet with people otherwise, but she is just absolutely not a fan of other felines. Due to this, we will not be adopting her out to any homes that already have a cat. She briefly met a dog and surprisingly did well with him, but that was only for a short time and we have yet to do any full introductions. We have not seen how she is around children.
When Meg isn't terrorizing the seas (or our cat room) she loves lounging around and receiving pets. She is a very affectionate cat with the people that she knows, and will rub all over your legs looking for attention.
Meg is litter box trained and up to date on her vaccinations. She's ready to get out of the depths of the shelter and back into the free world! If you think she could be the shark - we mean cat - for you, stop by and meet her today!

Meet Monday! She is a 1 year old, spayed female, Domestic Shorthair. Lets be honest, most Mondays are rough. But this Monday? She's the highlight of our week! This sweet girl came to us as a stray mama-to-be and handled her "Mom-day" era like an absolute pro! She raised four adorable kittens who have all found their forever home, and it's finally her turn! Since Monday was a stray, we don't know much about her past. She's gotten along with other cats, but we have not tested her with dogs yet. We recommend a meet and greet with the whole family prior to adoption. This sleek black beauty is the perfect mix of loving, social, and just the right amount of adventurous. She is already litter box trained and has been started on her vaccinations.
Here's what your week looks like with Monday
Mon - Fall in love instantly
Tues - Discover how sweet and friendly she is
Wed - Watch her explore every corner like a curious queen
Thur - Enjoy some play time with her favorite toys
Fri - Treat her to her favorite wet food
Sat - Wonder how anyone could have lived without her
Sun - Finally have some snuggles and relaxation
She's ready to finally get out of the shelter and into a home with her forever family! So stop dreading Monday - come out and adopt her instead!

Meet Corbin aka Squeaks! This sweet boy is a 9 year old male Domestic Long Hair Cat. He has already been neutered!
Corbin came to HSHP to no fault of his own! His original owner gave hime to a friend to care for when they ran on hard times. The friend already had her own personal animals, but had no problem caring for Corbin until other arrangements could be met.
Corbin is a very sweet boy that has been having a hard time adjusting to shelter life. The loud dogs barking and constant flow of human traffic has not been easy for him. He stays down in his hidden cubby all the time which has been making it difficult for him to get adopted.
When you take a couple minutes to get to know Corbin, you will learn he is actually very sweet and affectionate.
He would do very well to have another calm cat in the home as he is very sensitive!
You can see in the photo, how sad his eyes are. He is longing for a quiet home where he can spend his retirement years in peace!
