Dogs are the #1 most commonly owned pets on the planet, and with good reason.

After having a home for 4 years, Kya was given up because her family is moving and can’t take her along.  Her profile says…Kya is an amazing dog. She is sweet gets the zoomies and loves getting lots of pets.  She is very food driven and can be taught a lot with some training. This beauty knows sit, stay, and wait. Although she can be selective with other dogs, Kya will be a wonderful family dog and likes people of all ages.  It is unknown how she is with felines.

To meet Kya (ID 683172) or any other pet, complete the pre-adoption application at www.humanebroward.com and then stop by.  The Humane Society of Broward County is located at 2070 Griffin Road, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33312, and the adoption kennels open daily at 11 a.m.  If you have any questions call 954-989-3977 ext. 6.  The vaccine clinic is now open 6 days a week and opens at 8:30 a.m..  Visit the website to learn more.

Adoption Ambassador: If you can provide a temporary home for a large-breed dog, become an Adoption Ambassador for the Humane Society of Broward County. Ambassadors help market the pet through your network of friends and associates, while giving the pet a vacation from the shelter environment. Sometimes a different setting is all that is needed to help our furry friends find their forever home.

Spay/Neuter Services:

Vaccine Clinic: Is open Monday – Friday, 9 AM – 5:30 PM (close daily from 11:40 – 1:00 for lunch). This is a walk-in service, and you may experience a wait of up to an hour. All cats must be in carriers and dogs on a leash at all times. If you have a retractable leash, please keep it short.

Animal Admissions: The Admissions Department is open by appointment only. Please call 954-266-6873 and allow 48 hours for a call back. Closed on major holidays.

Foster Care: If you can provide a foster home for a cat or large-breed dog, please visit the HSBC website and complete a foster application.
