April Fools!
A month before our wedding, we were searching for a pet. I signed us up for the Love Train emails just in case one of those cuties would steal our hearts.

I sent my husband the picture and highlighted the name with a big please?? The Love Train came on April 1, so when my husband sent me a picture of a puppy saying “meet the boy named

Stevie stole our hearts!
I lost my elderly dog in early 2022 and was absolutely heartbroken. The house was too quiet and lonely without him, and I missed the energy dogs bring. A couple months later I saw Stevie’s picture on HSHV’s website and immediately drove over to see him. He was brought in with their Love Train program. When I got there he was jumping all over his sister trying to get my attention, whining and “screaming” at me when I pet his sister. When I got to meet him separately from the puppies, he immediately started giving me kisses, jumping everywhere, just

Finding Love
Glitch found me during a rough patch in 2019. I traveled to many shelters and HSHV was the last stop of the day. The moment I saw Glitch’s sweet face I knew I wanted to get to know him. I admit I was very hesitant at first, as he is blind and has cognitive complications, and I was a 20 year old working college student. With a little push from a friend, I took Glitch home. The rest is history. He’s my best cuddle bug and companion. I think he’s helped me grow through love and I like to think

Keno has changed our hearts forever ♥️
April 2010 we adopted Keno, a pit bull mix, from HSHV. At the time Keno was 7 months old. We fell in love with him almost immediately. He came into our home and has brought so much joy, love, cuddles and laughter, he is a part of our hearts forever. We were originally told that Keno loves toys, and you were right, till this day he loves toys! We have given Keno the best life we can offer, with home-made dog food, comfy beds and blankets, plenty of toys, nice fenced-in backyard, healthy treats and a ton of human friends!
