Our Shelter...yesterday, today, and tomorrow

The Humane Society & Adoption Center of Rockport-Fulton (HSAC) was established in a small storefront on Hwy 35 in 1988.  Now located on 3 ½ acres of wooded grounds, the “House of Hope” Shelter building was constructed in 2013.  It is a gem on the Texas coast, where a small staff and volunteers lovingly care for animals that are lost or abandoned.  Our Shelter is unique, with 15 fenced yards for dogs to play and run freely, 3 cattery rooms adjoined by covered screened porches, an indoor kennel room for small dogs/puppies, bathing/grooming/ laundry area, medical supply room and a front desk where volunteers welcome visitors and assist with adoptions.  From the moment you enter the grounds, the facility reflects our commitment to provide an exceptional Shelter environment until animals are adopted and go to their “forever” home.  

We Take "Humane to Heart"

We accomplish our mission with the help of a small professional staff, a number of passionate volunteers and funding from private donations and grants. Currently we can accommodate 54 dogs and a similar number of cats.

Our expenses include the operation of our building and grounds, a lean payroll and the necessary funds for veterinary care, food, bedding and other necessities.  Our Shelter offers many opportunities to support us, with large or small contributions of time or money.  Some of the ways to be a part of our HSAC family include:
