Out of an abundance of caution, the intake of dogs at the Lancaster Avenue location is temporarily closed to prevent the possible spread of canine influenza in our shelter. In addition, dog adoptions from the Saxe-Forte (Fort Worth) location are also temporarily closed.
EQUINE RESOURCES
Equines come with their own set of expenses and requirements. The Humane Society of North Texas (HSNT) offers a safe space and resources to help when you need options.
Please call our Equine Department at 817.789-7733 or email equineresources@hsnt.org to discuss the resources below, available to your equines (horses, donkeys, mules).

KEEP AT HOME
If you have fallen on hard times financially but feel you can still provide good welfare for your equines long-term, you may be eligible to participate in our Vet Direct Program. Once your case is qualified, HSNT will cover a percentage of an equine vet visit to provide one-time care benefits such as shots, teeth floats, minor illnesses, and basic care.
EUTHANASIA SUPPORT
If your equine is not healthy with a poor prognosis for recovery, HSNT may be able to assist. HSNT strives to alleviate the suffering of all animals where rehabilitation is not an option. Once your case is qualified, HSNT will cover a percentage of a vet visit to provide end-of-life relief to your equine in need (available for horses, donkeys, and mules only).
REHOME
If you need to surrender your healthy equine for any reason, please contact us. We’ll talk through options to determine the best course of action for you and your animal. Equines are received as space allows and by utilizing collaborative partners and foster homes. As we do not have sanctuary capacity, all equines will be adopted out to approved homes when ready to do so.
WORKING TOGETHER TO HELP EQUINES IN NEED
Through strong partnerships and working together, HSNT is helping owners and their animals in the North Texas area. Thanks to a grant from the Texas Thoroughbred Association with support from the ASPCA®, and The Right Horse Initiative, we are pleased to collaborate with the SPCA of Texas to offer the extensive services above to surrounding communities of North Texas.
If you need assistance with your livestock such as chickens, goats, cows etc., please visit our Livestock Resource page.
For rabbits and other small animals, please visit our Rehoming or Surrendering a Pet page.
