Beautiful Elsa is a husky mix of fur and love. We named her Elsa after "Frozen" because her coat is white and fluffy like the snow in winter. We found it to fit her. We are unsure of her exact age, but we guess that she is about 3 years old. She prefers to hang out on the outside area of her kennel during the mornings when everyone is barking and being noisy. Elsa is pretty low key and will shy away from people initially, but she is very friendly and loving. She enjoys being groomed and petted. She has no problem rolling over onto her back so that you can reach all the best places. She came to us after a fatal chicken incident and was never claimed by her owner. You could tell that she was pretty scared and was quite stand-offish. Now she greets us, she paws at us when we get close to her. All-around, Elsa is just a great dog. She does well with some of the dogs here at the kennel, but not with our resident cat. She loves to explore in our play yard and play with her toys. She has even been caught trying to play with her kennel neighbors under the fence. She has been so good and patient, we just want to tell everyone about how sweet she is. She will gently lick your cheek when she sidles up next to you. Please contact Van Buren County Animal Control at 269-621-4624 or visit the shelter at 58040 County Road 681, Hartford, MI 49057 to learn more about beautiful Elsa!

Meet Alex and Max, happy little guys who are certain to put a smile on your face! They are playful and adore attention from people. Pure breed Havanese dogs, only 4-1/2 years old. Alex is grey and weighs around 14 pounds. Max is black with white and weighs around 16 pounds. Both boys would like to lose a couple of pounds, but wouldn't we all?!! Alex loves to be held and carried. Max is more independent, preferring to walk and climb up beside you. The boys are crate-trained, however, they are not fully house-trained and will need work with leash-training, but they are smart and have wonderful personalities! The boys are neutered and up-to-date on vaccines. They recently saw their groomer, so their normally longer coats will be growing out soon. Neutered and up-to-date on vaccines. Reach out to Paws of Hope at [email protected] to learn more about adorable Alex and Max.
