Meet the HSHV Pet of the week at https://www.hshv.org/petsoftheweek-2/

Hi my name is Gus! I am a shy kind of dog who is looking for a patient adopter willing to give me time to adjust and open up in my new home. I can get nervous when I first meet someone, it’d be best for me to meet my potential dog siblings before I go home. Once I get more comfortable, I will come out of my shell and start to show more of my true personality. If you are interested in meeting me, please fill out an adoption survey online or in the shelter.

Pet of the Week is sponsored by Mighty Dog Roofing

All the animals available for adoption through the Humane Society of Huron Valley (HSHV) are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on their vaccinations and have a microchip I.D. which is included in their affordable adoption fee.
