We adopted Charity (now Winnie) from HSHV in October last year, and she immediately fell in love with her sister, Chubbina (Chubby — from Monroe County Humane Society, no relation to HSHV) They get along so well and love cuddling up next to each other on top of the recliner. Charity now Winnie

I was struggling with anxiety and loneliness, as my partner had to move out of state for work, and we were considering relocating. After a particularly hard day, I decided to go for a walk around the shelter and found Cali — she was sweet and friendly, and immediately I was drawn to her. Two days later, I took her home. Cali has seen me through two cross-country moves, bouts of anxiety and depression, the best days and the worst. She is a wonderful companion. Adopting Cali was the best thing I ever did for my mental health. Cali

We adopted Sicario in March 2017 from the Love Train. Adopting Sicario was the best decision we’ve ever made! We got so lucky with her; she greets everyone with her nonstop wiggle butt and grumpy face (underbites unite). ? Charlotte now Sicario

I adopted Dixie when she was around 8 months old. Over 2 years later, we are best friends and do everything together. This adoption has been the best decision I have made, and I can’t wait for many more fun years together. #adoptdon’tshop Dixie

Paddy was at the shelter two months when we adopted her. We were 3 weeks into marriage and knew she was the one for us. Now she is enjoying life in jammies, long walks down the community gardens and tons of snuggles.

I Saw Seamus at HSHV 6 years ago now. He was — and still is — a very cuddly kitty. He is, however, slightly larger than he was when adopted. He was 9 lbs when I adopted him. He currently is about 20 lbs. He is such a love bug, and I couldn’t be happier. Seamus McFuzzy

In March 2018, we had to say goodbye to our elderly calico after a happy 17.5 years full of naps and food and tummy rubs. Originally, we thought it would take some time before we were ready to open our hearts to another creature. But after a week of the house feeling sad and empty, we made our way to Tiny Lions lounge and adoption Center (HSHV’s cat cafe). On our second visit there, we spied a minuscule, wide-eyed, giant-tailed, fearless 7-month-old dust-mop hiding behind a door. With a bit of coaxing, she came and licked our hands and graciously

I fell in love with this sweet face on The Humane Society of Huron Valley’s Facebook page. The next day, I got there as soon as I could to see if I could find him, and I did! He was shy at first, but lay down on my lap. I knew I had to take him home that day! This puppy’s love has filled my life with joy! I couldn’t be more grateful for The Humane Society of Huron Valley and their Love Train program! Today is Frankie’s birthday, and we’re celebrating in style! Frankenstein now Frank

When my family of four lost our old man Basset Hound when he crossed the Rainbow Bridge, it took us time to be ready for our new furry family member. When it was time, I headed to HSHV intending to adopt a young adult dog. Brownie sure changed my mind. He was polite and calm for a little puppy, and I thought, “Why not play with him a little?” Well, that was it. Stole my heart. He has been wonderful — from potty training to sleeping through the night and basic training. He is smart and willing to learn. I
