Who We Are and What We Do.
The HHS is a nonprofit organization dedicated to caring for the homeless dogs and cats of Alpena County. Our facility is usually pretty full with 20+ dogs and 80+ cats on any given day. We are a no-kill shelter and will work to heal and rehabilitate the pets that come through our doors. While we cooperate with local governments to provide services to the surrounding city, township and county, we rely on private donations to keep our doors open.

The Huron Humane Society offers a variety of services to local residents. Among them are:

  • providing shelter for stray and lost pets
  • locating suitable homes for the pets
  • Rehabilitating ill and injured dogs and cats
  • working with owners to re-home their animals
  • providing microchipping to the general community
  • supporting spay and neuter efforts
  • obtaining full veterinary services for all pets in our care
  • microchipping service to the community
  • school and nursing home pet visitations
Our Mission: to provide no-kill solutions to reduce the number of homeless cats and dogs through education, rehabilitation and re-homing.


 



FLOCK YOUR FRIENDS!


When you flock a friend, HHS volunteers will plant a flock of pink flamingos in your person’s yard, leaving a letter and encouraging him/her to play and support the Huron Humane Society.


When choosing a friend to flock, make sure this person:

1.     Has a sense of humor

2.     Will not be insulted

3.     Is likely to support this fundraiser

Should your friend not want to play, the dreaded flock will disappear within 48 hours of migration


To start the game, simply donate $50.00 and we will start the flocking!

Your friend will then be able to migrate their flock upon making a $50.00 donation.

This game is simple and lots of fun.

So pick a friend to flock and give us a call, send us an email or stop by the shelter and talk to us.


Call 989-356-4794 or email
volunteers@charterinternet.com


All proceeds will benefit the Huron Humane Society Building Fund.

Dogs Win with Kennel Sponsors
Kennel Sponosorships now available for individuals or groups! It's a great way to support the HHS, and one animal in particular. For about $1.50 a day, or $500 for a full year, you can make sure that the animal in "your kennel" is safe, healthy and happy! Your genorosity is recognized with a sign naming you as the sponsor. Your animal will be spayed or neutered, featured on the web and in the Alpena News, and will be given a special toy "just because." Our first sponsors are the Lab Staff at ARMC, and the lucky dog is Brandy! If you, on your own, or with a club or even the people you work with, will help a special shelter pet, click here!
