My story

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

With eyes as golden as her name, Honey is a gentle soul who’s looking for a calm, patient home where she can truly feel safe and loved. Originally found as a stray, Honey has known the uncertainty of life on her own—but through it all, she’s remained respectful, thoughtful, and quietly affectionate.

Honey spent a few months in a home where she got along well with a younger male dog, but struggled to bond with a dominant female dog. She’s shown she can be a wonderful companion with the right match and would likely do best as the only dog or with a calm, respectful canine friend. Honey has also shown some resource guarding around food, but she’s incredibly polite and will sit and wait patiently when asked—she just prefers her meals in peace and her space respected.

Because of her sensitivity and desire for a low-stress environment, Honey is looking for a home without young children. She thrives in quiet moments, loves being outdoors, and walks beautifully on a leash. She already knows several commands, is muzzle trained, and is eager to please the people she trusts.

Honey may not be the dog who leaps into your lap right away—but give her time, and you’ll discover a deeply loyal friend with a heart as golden as her eyes. She’s sweet, soulful, and so ready to find her forever.

If you believe in second chances and the quiet magic of earning a dog’s trust, Honey will reward you with a love that’s deep, steady, and absolutely priceless.More information? Call Marion Area Humane Society at 740-389-6548 or email at manager@mahspets.org

More about this shelter

Marion Area Humane Society is a 501(c)(3), non-profit organization incorporated in 1967 under ORC 1717. We strive to educate, assist and protect the animals of the Marion area. Since 1986 have operated a shelter to provide a humane environment for homeless animals. In 2011 several generous donors and grants made it possible for a shelter renovation and addition of a separate intake section. MAHS operates a open-admissions shelter with a guilt and fee free surrender policy, to encourage owners who can not properly care or maintain proper living conditions for their pets to do the best thing for the pet. MAHS also provides humane investigations and a spay/neuter voucher program for Marion county.
