Almost 2 months ago, Marshall Meowthers came to us in this tiny hoodie. He was a tough 1.3lb fella who'd chased off two large dogs who were trying to mess with him!

Now, he's happily found his forever home. Congrats to Marshall Meowthers and his lucky person ❤️

Labor Day weekend, we rescued 126 animals from a person with a history of animal cruelty-related convictions and felony charges: dogs, cats, horses, goats, sheep, reptiles and more, many in poor health. This is one of the toughest times our shelter has faced.

Perfect Dog Alert! Somebody come get Sage Grouse! You'll usually see him curled up sweetly in his kennel with his soft blankets and his stuffy toys, looking at you sweetly with his big brown eyes and a wagging tail.

Sage is 2 years old, and would likely prefer to be your only pet. Meet him today!

The busy summer is coming to a close -- which means STORYTIME IS BACK! 📚

Bring your little one under 5 to Little Paws Toddler Time at our main shelter, and Tiny Tails Toddler Time at Tiny Lions Lounge & Adoption Center 😸

Our shelter will be closed on Labor Day, but we're open the rest of the weekend! And may we say--three day weekends are an excellent time to bring home a new family member.

See who's available at 🐾 hshv.org/adopt 🐾 or stop by the shelter any time to meet Pickles and his buddies!

Parents: Want this Friday night to yourselves? Drop off your kids at Tiny Lions for "Cats & Kids", where they'll get to enjoy snacks, games and the kittens at the cat cafe!

Join us Friday, October 24 at Saint John's Resort in Plymouth. Last year this popular event sold out, and we look forward to another full house!

Let's go behind-the-scenes: meet Fish Eye Blind and Pidgeot! These unlikely roommates are living in our Rescue Team's office and are each looking for a forever home. Fish Eye Blind needs a minimum 55 gallon tank, and Pidgeot needs a spacious cage, healthy diet and plenty of enrichment!

We can't get over these adorable pics of Laredo that our volunteer photographer took this weekend! This boy is 6 months old and available for visits and adoption, even though he's not yet on the website. Come meet him today or call us at 734-662-5585!

Sandra is an incredible dog, y'all. Trust us, we've been getting to know her since FEBRUARY🥹

She's nearly 2, wants a home without other dogs or kids under 5. From playing tug on land to playing mermaids in the pool, this little lady fills every moment with maximum fun. 🎉 She is free to adopt!

Did you know not all of our dogs are housed in the public adoption area? Don't overlook Ethel!

Ethel prefers the quieter, non-public side of the shelter. She has a heart of gold and loves zooming after tennis balls, but can be shy at first. She'd love to be your only dog, and is free to adopt!

Sneak peek: Bunny isn't on our website yet, but he's available for adoption!

Bunny has a charming grin, but can be pretty shy. He'd do best in a home without young kids, though he has lived with another dog in the past. We don't know his history around cats. Call us to learn more! 734-662-5585 🐰

ALERT: Our shelter is FULL of animals who need to find their forever homes as soon as pawssible! Here are some of the doggies who aren't on our website yet, but are ready to meet with you today!

From Raine's foster: "Raine is quite literally the biggest cuddle bug. I think he forgets he’s not a small dog some days 💞"

Does your dog want a friend? Lychee (left) and Bitsy (right) are youngsters who love playing with other dogs! If you have an active home where these ladies can get their zoomies out, without small kids or cats, come meet them today!

Hey! Shiloh needs ya to know a couple of things:

1) We are closed July 4th

2) Animals are most likely to run away from home during the bang-bang-booming of the 4th of July. Double check that your pet's microchip info and ID tags are up to date!

Have a safe and happy holiday!

What would be the purrfect volunteer assignment for you?

Tiny Lions Cat Cafe new volunteer orientation is Monday, July 7th from 4-5pm. Hope you can join us! 😻

Sprite is as bubbly as his name! He's a happy, wiggly 2.5 year old who's still learning his manners, but for the right person, Sprite could be the ultimate adventure buddy AND couch companion.

If you have a home without kids under 5, come meet this magical creature!

Enjoy the many faces of John eating treats -- and just imagine, you could be looking at this cute face every day! Come in and meet him or contact us for more info at 734-662-5585 or adoptions@hshv.org 🐾 John is about 3 years old and enjoys hanging out with new people and other dogs.

Did you know some of our most special dogs aren’t in the main adoption area? Ethel is one of them—housed in a quiet part of the shelter, where visitors often miss her. But she’s worth the extra effort! Ethel can be shy, but has a heart of gold and is FREE to adopt to the right home!

Would you like to share your life with a four-legged friend, but aren't able to adopt? We'd love to have you as an HSHV foster volunteer!

Sesame is already making herself at home at her new foster's, loving the patio furniture and sunshine! Call us at 734-662-5585 to set up a meeting with this 1.5 year old lady 🥰 She's free to adopt if she finds the right fit, and is looking for a home without cats!
