I recently went through big changes in life and found myself living alone and feeling very lonely. I went to the Humane Society to look for a bonded pair, and I found these two girls. They are wonderful. They were very shy at first, every sound and movement scared them. They used to growl any time the neighbors opened their doors. But now, a month later, they are so happy and comfortable. They make cuddle piles all over the place, and they have favorite spots and blankets now. If I don’t cuddle them for at least half an hour every

In May of 2022 I was fortunate enough to adopt the perfect bunny who needed a home, Blueberry Chalet. When I walked into HSHV I was told she just got returned from foster care and hadn’t been adopted in 2 years. I knew she was exactly what I needed. The day I brought Blueberry home I let her out to explore the living room. Instead of hopping around she immediately hopped onto my lap and sat with me for an hour. I knew then she needed me just as much as I needed her. Blueberry was definitely hesitant for a

In November 2022, I adopted Ivy (JJ) – a 13yo Australian Cattle Dog mix. Having lost my 14yo beagle a month prior, I had been visiting HSHV in hopes of meeting a dog in their golden years. I was delighted to meet Ivy! Since bringing Ivy home just a few short months ago, she has brought immense joy and companionship. From the very first day, it was clear that Ivy’s senior status did not dampen her spirit or her capacity to love. She adjusted seamlessly to her new home and showcased a strong ability to learn a new environment. When

I adopted Yeimy in the summer of 2019 and she was the smallest little 2 year old, just barely 7lbs. It was love at first sight; her reaching for my hand from her cage at the bottom of the row, and me instantly getting a little head butt. She has always been so sweet and gentle, and has a passion for food and cuddles like no cat I’ve ever seen. She’s my soulpet, a pet who is like your soulmate and that you’re so grateful for every day. She’s turning 6 this summer and we’re going to throw her a

I remember I went to HSHV with the idea to adopt a dog that I saw on the website, but when I walked in I saw so many dogs and I decided to stop by all of them and say hi. There’s when I saw Deeno, he came to us and burped hahaha it was funny, and also his chunky body – we literally fell in love. But I needed some time to think about it so I decided I was going to come back on Friday and meet him. It was really late when I got there Friday so

Our family adopted Thumper on St. Patrick’s Day 2010. He was 2 1/2 yrs old so he really is an old man now, getting close to 16 years old. We knew right away that he was for us! He has his share of physical challenges but he still wants his 2 walks a day, although he needs quite a bit of help. We are happy to help, as you only live once! When we brought Thumper home, he already had such a beautiful personality. We did the dog training classes at HSHV and he passed his canine citizenship test. We
