Apollo

The Helotes Humane Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to placing unwanted animals in loving homes. All of our animals receive age-appropriate vaccinations, testing, a microchip, and spay/neuter surgery if needed.

Helotes Humane Society is a foster-based rescue with the majority of our adoptable pets residing in foster homes.  We are not a shelter, so we do not usually have adoptable pets at our office location. To meet one of our adoptable pets, please complete an application (no obligation) to connect with our foster team.

Remember, don’t shop, adopt!

Cornyval Booth Volunteers Needed!
We need volunteers to represent HHS in our booth at Cornyval. Sign up to work a two-hour shift and help get the word out about our rescue and our rescue pets! Want to help but not a current volunteer? Complete the volunteer application and sign up for the shift of your choice. 

As a small non-profit organization, we rely heavily on volunteers to foster animals, run adoption events, plan fundraisers, maintain our facilities, sort donations, answer phones, create materials, and a myriad of other tasks. Interested in joining our team of volunteers, complete an application and we will help you find the right spot for your skills and talents.

Second Chances Thrift Shop

Second Chances Thrift Shop is a hidden treasure that helps support the Helotes Humane Society. If you are looking for that special unique item you won’t find at the big box stores, come visit us! You’ll find everything from books, clothing, and household items to antiques and collectibles. We do the sorting, you do the discovering! 

We accept item donations to help support rescued animals.

Our Mission

Helotes Humane Society

The Helotes Humane Society’s mission is to promote the benevolent treatment of animals and provide humane education. Our group takes in neglected, abandoned, and unwanted dogs and cats. We spay and neuter them, medically treat them, and get them ready for adoption. We are a non-profit organization dedicated to placing unwanted animals in Helotes, Texas and the surrounding San Antonio community into loving, forever homes. You can help by adopting a dog or cat, donating or volunteering!
