Pet Adoption In The Hartland Area: New Pets Added This Week
Want to add a new member to your family and do something good for the Hartland community at the same time? Consider adopting a dog, cat or other kind of pet from a local shelter or organization. Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, facilities have dogs, cats and other pets ready and waiting to be adopted.
Across Michigan, there are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages without a home — and many of them are located within driving distance. In the search for an adorable new fur child, consider looking around at a local adoption center like Michigan Humane Detroit Center For Animal Care, where Mr. Mackerel the dog is waiting patiently. If you aren't sure if you have time to take care of a pet year round, many shelters also offer opportunities to foster pets until they are placed in permanent homes.
Need some help in your search? Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We put together a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you're a dog person, meet Hattie, a Spaniel mix up for adoption. If cats are more your thing, there are several great cats available, too. Click on any listing for more information, or to start the adoption process.
