Spring Adopt-a-Thon
Humane Society of Huron Valley

Spring Adoption 2.jpg Join the Humane Society of Huron Valley for the largest pet adoption event in our history!

IMPORTANT: Since we anticipate being very busy on Saturday, we encourage you to fill out your dog and cat adoption surveys now and bring them in with you. As a thank you for filling out your adopter surveys, we've provided these valuable coupons that can be redeemed on Saturday as well. You must bring your survey with you to use the coupons.

We do require a dog-to-dog interaction if you want to adopt a dog an already have dog(s) at home. If it is not convenient for you to visit and then return home to get your dog, please do bring them with you. The forecast is calling for mid 40s on Saturday so pets should be safe in your vehicle for a period of time with the windows cracked. Please do inform our staff that your dog is with you in the car and we will do our best to facilitate a timely interaction if you find a dog you wish to adopt.
