Welcome to the HSCC Blog!

This is a page where we will debunk common animal myths & misconceptions, provide general animal care tips & troubleshooting, share fun DIY project ideas, give some insights into the "real world" of animal sheltering, and answer some of the most frequently asked questions we receive from pet owners. Follow along with our blog to stay up to date on all of these topics and much more!

Do you have a specific pet care question or issue that you would like some guidance on? HSCC's Pet Helpline is here for you! Email us at helpline@hsccvt.org or give us a call at (802) 862-0135 ext 29.

In addition to finding homes for over 1,000 animals each year, we provide & prioritize training, education, and health services to keep pets and their families together. To learn more about these Surrender Prevention services, click here.
