Meet Lexi - Our Macaroni Dog of the Week

Lexi is a super sweet, people loving 4 year old German Shepherd. Her favorite activities are playing and running. She knows several basic commands such as “sit” and has lived with children in the past. What makes Lexi unique is that she has a medical condition called Megaesophagus. Due to this condition, Lexi has to eat upright in a special chair (called a Bailey’s Chair) and maintain a very strict feeding schedule. She doesn’t let this stop her from acting like a regular dog! Lexi quickly became a staff and volunteer favorite; it is hard not to fall in love with this adorable lady. Lexi has officially been at HSTC for over a year! If this special needs pup sounds like she may be the one for you, please give us a call at 772-223-8822 or stop by the HSTC main shelter at 4100 SW Leighton Farm Avenue in Palm City.


Meet Wonder - Our Macaroni Kitty of the Week

Wonder came to HSTC in January of 2021 when she wasn’t feeling well and her owner was not able to provide adequate care. We determined that Wonder was diabetic and quickly began regulating her diabetes with a special diet and insulin. Wonder is a very sweet, calm and quiet cat. She likes to be brushed and to watch out the window. Wonder is 13 years young and her adoption has been sponsored by a very generous donor! She is accepting visitors at the HSTC main shelter in Palm City.
