A loving, friendly puppy or dog can provide many happy years of loyalty and companionship. When you adopt a shelter dog from the Cashiers-Highlands Humane Society, you will also enjoy the greatest gift of all – the gift of unconditional love. All adoptable pets at CHHS are spayed/neutered, microchipped, up to date on all age-appropriate vaccinations and flea/heartworm preventative.
SHELTER HOURS: Tuesday - Saturday; 10am - 4pm (by appointment only)
