My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Elizabeth is a very sweet girl, who can be shy when you first meet her but loves to cuddle and receive attention once she is comfortable.

Elizabeth thrives living in a quiet neighborhood and also enjoys having a fenced yard to run around and play fetch. She likes short walks twice a day as well. She is petite and athletic, weighing in at 37 pounds. For enrichment, she enjoys her meals out of a Kong wobbler (which can be sent to her new home with her) and playing with toys. She responds well to positive reinforcement training.

She gets along well with her dog foster sibling, but would like to meet any potential siblings before adoption to ensure it is a good match. She does have a strong prey drive, so needs a home without cats or other small critters.

Elizabeth is currently living in one of our amazing foster homes! Adopting from foster is easy! Just contact the adoptions team at 734-662-5585 or email adoptions@hshv.org to set up a visit today!

Additional adoption info

Thank you for considering adopting and saving a life! Our goal is to provide you with the knowledge you need to adopt while making the process a positive experience, so here are some things to know:

+ You must be at least 21 years of age to adopt at HSHV. We welcome all--from any county or state!

+ Prior to visiting an animal, you must complete an application. You can do this at the shelter, or save time by bringing a completed one with you by downloading it from our website at www.hshv.org/howtoadopt.

+ Some animals have special adoption requirements.

+ If you have a dog and wish to adopt another, we may require a dog-to-dog interaction.

+ Adoptions are first-come, first served and holds are limited to one 24-hour hold per family.

+ Please allow at least an hour if you plan on adopting. Bring your driver's license or other government-issued ID with proof of address, a copy of your lease (if it applies) and vaccination records for current pets.

+ Applications are accepted up until 15 minutes prior to closing.

+ Most adoptions are same-day, you'll take home your new friend!

When our animals go home, they've received an initial health check and have been:
+ Spayed/Neutered
+ Microchipped
+ Current on vaccinations (as appropriate to their age)
+ Dewormed
+ Feline Leukemia tested (kittens and cats)
+ Heartworm tested (adult dogs)
+ Temperament tested (adult dogs)

Every adoption from HSHV also comes with:
