Shelter Tours

SHELTER TOURS

If you're part of a community or school group that's interested in seeing our facility, we offer shelter tours! During these guided tours your group will see many different areas of our shelter. You will also see the many different animals that we care for, but will not be able to interact with them. Being a working shelter we are very busy helping our animals and assisting potential adopters, therefore we schedule shelter tours on weekday mornings (Monday-Friday), when we are closed to the public.

Requirements
  • Groups should be no more than 25 people (chaperons included)
  • We recommend that children are at least 5 years of age or older to participate in a tour (one adult chaperon for every 5 children)
  • You will see many animals during your tour, but may not be able to interact with them
  • Tours are scheduled Monday-Friday mornings and take around 30 minutes
  • Please plan to schedule your tour at least a week in advance so we can plan properly
  • While we provide tours at no charge, we do suggest and encourage you to check our Wish List prior to your visit

To schedule an appointment or to find out more about our shelter tours, please email ellav@hsccvt.org
