My girlfriend and I came in just browsing after randomly finding the website and looking at all the puppies and dogs. We originally came to look at Bella a female cane corso mix, but the humane society accident had her tag and her brothers swapped right next to her. Once we noticed and got it switched and we’re looking at the right dog, we just knew we had to take her home. She was 5 ish months old at the time and just recently spayed so she was quite energetic but sore it seemed. Turns out though funny enough we

We found and adopted our first cat, Percy, in 2019, and we quickly realized that Percy was lonely and in need of a friend. We found Pablo, now Caduceus, in one of the communal rooms, where many cats (often those who don’t know each other before sharing the room) live together. This ended up being a great indicator of Caduceus’ personality and socialization. Although Percy was apprehensive at first, we introduced them over a few weeks and now they are truly the best of friends. Caduceus is incredibly affectionate, chatty, adaptable, and charming. We are so lucky to have our

It was covid. I was so lonely and needed to make a new friend. I decided to take my Mom to Tiny Lions to just hangout. I never planned to meet a new friend that day. A little guy sat on my Mom’s lap and she said, “He is the one!” I read his collar and his name was LT.Dan and I held him and knew he was going to be my best friend in the whole world. I brought him home a few short weeks later, and we became best buds. I decided while I worked he couldn’t be

Three years ago, our daughter adopted Mila from your facility. As Mila just turned 7, we wanted to provide an update of her life. Simply put, she is a delightful companion, and we love her dearly. She is sweet, fun, and smart, and we couldn’t imagine life without her. She goes on long walks, enjoys playing fetch and tug-of-war, and barks at invisible intruders in the yard. She is living her best life. Thank you for all you do for animals who need you! Mila

Just wanted to give you an update on Sasha aka Passion Fruit. She is doing very well at her forever home with her big brother Steve French, also from HSHV. She is growing and very comfortable. She has a new fascination with falling leaves. Definitely has some major zoomies moments but loves to snuggle with her favorite blanket! Big Brother Steve is very good with her and definitely loves his baby sister! They have both brought so much joy to our home! Passion Fruit and Steve French, now Sasha & Steve

We adopted Aphrodite in early April, and she has been an absolute delight… while also being the most consternating animal I’ve ever met! I wouldn’t change a thing about her! She moves at her own pace and does things her own way, but she’s also incredibly sweet and loyal. It took about three months for her sense of humor and personality to really start coming out, but now we see her. Aphrodite isn’t our first large dog, but she is our first mastiff, and while I’ve walked plenty of dogs her size or heavier, she is the only one who

It all started when I agreed to a private adoption for a grey tabby. His owner was prompt, friendly & described him in great ways. Until I got to meet him and found that he was NOT socialized to be with other animals! She hadn’t been honest with me! Despite my best efforts, I knew, sadly, that I could not give him the home with the my resident cat I’d hoped. I took him to HSHV for a sad surrender (where he eventually spent a few weeks in behavioral & was happily adopted thereafter!). Nevertheless, in search of dopamine &

When I was 8 years old my parents finally agreed to letting me get a cat so they took me to HSHV where I met Ranger a little tabby kitten with a milky film over his left eye. That day he became my best friend. I’m now 18 and I couldn’t have made it without him. He has helped me deal with PTSD and crippling anxiety. He has been the best thing to ever happen to me and it couldn’t have been without HSHV’s help. Ranger
