My name is Gabi. I was formally known as Dahlia at HSHV and I moved to my forever home on 7/8/24. I just wanted all of my 2-legged and 4-legged friends at HSHV to know that I’m doing great and thank you for the great care you provided while I was a resident at your fine establishment. When I arrived at my new home, I checked in and learned the 3 most important things of life…where to eat, where to go to the bathroom and where to sleep. It was all downhill after that. My new family and I quickly

The day I found out about clementine I just knew I had to meet her. That night I sent the wonderful foster family a text asking if we could meet her. I received a response right away and was able to arrange something for later that week. When I met this spunky, feisty girl she was the sweetest little angel who was not shy and came out and said hello. I got some kisses and she even took a little nap on me. I knew right then that I wanted her to live with me forever! At the time she

I can’t believe it’s only been a month since we adopted her. She’s spicy and sweet, and the queen of the house. When I first adopted her, she didn’t like to be picked up or held. I kept her in a small room so she wouldn’t be overwhelmed, and spent lots of time with her. She eventually let me pet her, and then pick her up. I very gradually introduced her to my two other cats. Patrick, who was also adopted from HSHV, fell in love with her, but Tyrion wants to be the king of the house and isn’t

Back in May (May 20th, 2024 to be exact), my boyfriend and I took a trip to the shelter. We were going to “ just look”. Needless to say, sweet Penelope stole our hearts immediately. Since then, we’ve had many ups and downs, adjusting as a family of three. But we could not be happier! She loves to cuddle, go for rides in the car and of course long walks!! And obviously she’s on Instagram @penelopethehuskyy Penelope, now Penelope Paige

For about 6 years, 2008-2014, I was a puppy foster for HSHV. On March 24, 2012, the foster manager called and asked if I would be willing to take a male puppy, 9 weeks old, who wasn’t doing good with his siblings at another foster’s home and we said we would. Oliver Blue came into our home and decided he was here to stay. From that point forward he helped foster many of the puppies that came to us. He was very helpful with potty training and playing with them. Blue was very selective of the people he trusted. As

On May 3rd (my birthday), my mom and I were scrolling the list of adoptable animals at Huron Valley. We were truthfully just looking at all the kitties names without thinking of adopting any as my father and I are allergic. However, when we saw Gopher’s photo we immediately knew we needed to know his story. Not much was known about his backstory other than he was really sick and had to have both eyes removed due to injury and infection. That was Friday, and at opening on Sunday morning we were there to meet Goph. He was still very
