We have been talking about getting a new dog so we decided to go to the Humane Society of Huron Valley and look. We got there, went through, and saw Elese. We took her for a walk. Our 19 year old wanted to walk her and the minute she was told to sit and she gave my son her paw, it was over: we knew she was the right one for us. We brought our other dog up to see how they interacted. We took Elise home for a Pajama party for 3 days, and that Friday, we signed her

We adopted Denver so that our girls could grow up knowing and loving a dog, and Denny delivered! At the beginning she was very rambunctious and did need a lot of devoted training and exercise to teach her how to behave around our small children. We are so happy that we didn’t give up on her and were devoted. Now she is super protective of her human sisters and is a great family pet. She gives my girls kisses all the time! We love Denver as a member of the family! Minnie now Denver

I started volunteering at HSHV in October of 2016 after losing my first fur-baby to lymphoma a few months before. Three weeks later, I met my first HSHV alum, Dobby, and fell head over heels the moment I saw him. At the time, we were living with my parents and their puppy, but in the summer of 2017 Dobby and I were able to get a home of our own. I had planned on getting Dobby a sibling when my work settled down a bit, but it soon became apparent that he needed another dog around sooner rather than later.

I’d been in my new, cat-friendly apartment for six months when I decided it was time to adopt my first furry pal. Having grown up with cats but never having cared for one alone, I figured I’d choose a young adult, maybe 2-5 years old, as an easy place to start. Scooby had other ideas. This 11-year-old plushy black kitty won me over with his snuggly, laid-back demeanor and steady purr. After a week of soul-searching, I decided I couldn’t leave this older fellow in the shelter for another night. Within 20 minutes of popping out of his crate, he
