Humane Society of Huron Valley

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 18 years of age or older 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. + 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) See our current fees and adoption specials at www.hshv.org/howtoadopt.
