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

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

Sadie (dog on left) and Sydney (dog on right) were both Love Train dogs. We adopted Sydney 3 years ago. She is the greatest dog. Full of love and energy. We adopted Sadie 4 months ago. She was heartworm positive and very shy. She made it through treatment and is a completely transformed dog. She has a love for life, is more confident, and loves her new cat sisters. We love our Love Train dogs!   Thelma-Flower now Sadie/Sydney
