Toastie is a very special girl who has faced more sadness in her short life than any dog should have to face. When she was brought into rescue, she only weighed 24 lbs. She was a skeleton...you could see every vertebrate, every rib, hip bones, her skull bones....we didn't know if she would make it. Her parasitic load was high and she was covered in fleas. Sweet Toastie was just a shell of a dog.

Read more about Toastie

Her eyes told us right away she wasn't done fighting. From day one she was thankful for the help and displayed it with many tail wags, kisses, and a lean against our legs to tell us she trusted us. Toastie is still working on gaining weight but now that she's gained over 10 pounds, she's showing us her most silly self.

Toastie has never met a human or dog she didn't like. She's SO friendly and playful. From puppies to grumpy senior dogs, little Toast has been welcoming and gentle. If you have a dog that likes to play rough and wrestle, she likes that too! She is crate trained and potty trained, great in the car, and is down to live life with you!

Wyatt is a sweet, goofy guy who believes personal space is completely overrated. If he likes you, there’s a good chance he’ll be standing on your feet, leaning into you, or finding some other way to make sure you know he’s there.

Oreo is a sweet, affectionate girl who is ready to find a home of her own. She came to HSMC just in time to give birth to 10 puppies in the comfort of our TLC Center. Now that her puppies are off to their own homes, it’s Oreo’s turn to be spoiled!

Oreo loves people, enjoys playing with toys, and is always happy to get out for a walk. She also loves treats and would enjoy a laid-back canine companion to keep her company.

Oreo was born on 6/22/2025 and weighs about 40 pounds. She is looking for a loving, inside home where she can enjoy walks, playtime, cuddles, and being someone's special girl.

    How to adopt from The Humane Society of McCormick County, Inc.

    Our adoption process starts with an interview. We want to know what type of cat or dog they are looking for, their lifestyle, and their expectations. Then we set up a meet and greet either at the shelter, a pet store, or at their home. Then they fill out an adoption contract. We offer and encourage potential adopters to take the dog or cat home on foster-to-adopt for a few weeks before finalizing the adoption. Our adoption fee is $65 for cats and $125 for dogs which included spay or neuter and vaccinations and for dogs, it includes a microchip. Cats can be microchipped upon request.

Adopting a dog in Anderson County

Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.

Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
