Latest Updates & Breaking HSHV News
Thank you to ann arbor's 107.1 fm and morning host Martin Bandyke for giving the homeless pets a voice!
Listen every Thursday morning around 8:30 for the Pet-of-the-Week segment!
The 107.1 fm Pet-of-the-Week is Franklin!
Franklin is a sweet guy who believe it or not was found as a stray. It's hard to imagine that a dog Franklin's age could wander away without being looked for. We think Franklin is about 13 years old. Our veterinarians have done a medical exam and Franklin is in pretty good shape for a older guy.
Franklin is a love who likes to sit on your lap and get petted. He likes to get and give kisses and his tail starts wagging as soon as you pick up his leash. He likes to go for walks and sniff the ground looking for any people food that may have hit the floor. Hot dogs are a favorite of his - we found that out when he went to "Paws in the Park" with us! He can sniff out a hot dog a mile away!
Franklin is a Chihuahua and is a funny little dog. He likes some dogs and not others. If dogs get in his space too fast he doesn't like that. Franklin love kids that are 10 and older and he really love to sit in your lap. Franklin may develop cataracts eventually because we can see some cloudiness.
To find out more, visit www.hshv.org or call 662-5585 and ask about Franklin. HSHV is open daily from noon to 6 pm for adoptions.

Thank you to Lucy Ann Lance and Dean Erskine for hosting a weekly "Pet-of-the-Week" segment. Make sure you tune in at 9:00 am every Saturday to hear Lucy Ann and Dean on 1290 AM - WLBY.
The 1290 WLBY - Lucy Ann Lance Show Pet-of-the Week is TRINA
Trina is a 6 year-old Boxer Mix who was adopted from a rescue group and then dropped off at our shelter because the owner was moving and the rescue did not have room to take her back. The poor girl! She has been through a lot in her life and she deserves so much better than this!
If you are looking for a bit of an older dog that enjoys walking and hanging out with you, then you should meet trina. Trina is house-trained and she is good on her leash. She amiles a lot and enjoy being with our volunteer dog walkers. It's pure joy for her when she gets to run around our playground! She is really a lovely dog.
Senior dogs make great pets. They still like to play but they have learned so much and enjoy lying on the couch with you and being a calm and friendly companion. Trina is that type of dog.
Thank you to Ann Arbor.com for hosting a weekly Pet-of-the-Week spotlight on their web site.
The Pets-of-the-Week are Ziggy and Zippy
Ziggy and Zippy are a brother and sister pair who really must be adopted together. They are very attached to each other and you can often find them napping with Zippy lying her head on her brother's back. Their connection is endearing and special. We know they take great comfort having each other to rely on, especially during the large transitions in their lives. We call pets that need to stay together "Perfect Pairs", and we give them a special adoption price so that it makes it easier for a family to adopt them.
We've had many people want to adopt just one, but it would be heartbreaking to split them apart. They've already been through so much! They had a home in the south but when they weren't wanted any longer, they ended up in a shelter in Tennessee and then when they couldn't find a home there, PetSmart Charities Rescue Waggin' brought them to the Humane Society of Huron Valley so that we could try to find them a home together.
Ziggy and Zippy are Welsh Corgi mixes and are completely grown at almost 3 years of age. Many people mistake them for puppies because they are smaller dogs with the large corgi ears. Ziggy is the boy and he has a unique grey/brown marbled fur pattern. His sister, Zippy, if almost all black.
HSHV is open daily from noon to 6 pm for adoptions. If you have room in your heart and home for two very nice dogs, please come and visit Ziggy and Zippy.
Thank you to ArborList and the Ann Arbor Observer for featuring a homeless pet!
The ArborList Pet-of-the-Week is Cassiopeia
This beauty is Cassiopeia. She's about 2 years old and is a very dear cat with a tiny little voice and glossy black fur. Cassiopeia is a quiet girl who gives her love in a gentle and sweet way. She might not be a great match with small children, but she loves to rub and bump her head on your hand and has a tiny little purr motor.
Cassiopeia is yearning to be a lap cat and looking for a quiet home where any kids are at least 12. Cassiopeia is curious and chatty and would love to find a forever home where she can hang out with you!
HSHV is open daily from noon to 6 pm. Please visit www.hshv.org or call (734) 662-5585 and ask to see Cassiopeia.
