Meet Willow! She's a 3-year-old goofy girl who absolutely loves being in the dog park where she can do zoomies and play in the kiddie pool. She also likes playing fetch and tug-o-war with stuffy toys.
Willow would love to be the center of attention as the one and only pet in her new home. She also loves being with her people and would do best in a quiet, routine, adult-only home.
If you're interested in adopting Willow, please visit hswestmi.orgor contact the adoptions department at adoptions@hswestmi.org.

Summer Heat Safety
This heatwave shows no signs of slowing down, which can spell trouble for your pets, both inside and outside of the home. We’ve got some 'hot' tips from the ASPCA to keep your furry friends safe during this crazy weather!
The first and most obvious safety tip is to keep your pets cool! Know the signs of heatstroke, and make sure to avoid leaving your pet in a hot car or taking them for a walk on hot asphalt. Feel free to trim the coats of longer-haired pets, but never shave them as their coats actually help them to regulate heat!
Be sure to supervise your pets carefully around common summer activities, such as pools, fireworks, and barbeques, as many foods and drinks found at cookouts can be poisonous to pets. For pets that stay inside the home, make sure any open windows have screens for safety, and all pets should have easy access to clean, fresh water all summer long.
Happy Pride from HSWM!
This month, and every month, HSWM and staff value inclusion and equity. During the month of June, they'll be celebrating Pride with the community while also recognizing that inclusion and working towards equity isn't limited to one month, it requires dedicated work all year long!
This month we pause to celebrate all LGBTQ individuals and families, no matter who they are, as long as their heart has a place for four-pawed friends!
