Charlevoix Area Humane Society

Charlevoix Area Humane Society An independent non-profit no-kill animal shelter serving Charlevoix County since 1974

OUR PURPOSE

We advocate for the humane treatment of animals by initiating community awareness of pet care, owner responsibility, animal population control, and prevention of animal cruelty. We seek the return of lost animals to their owner, locate suitable homes for adoptable animals, and foster animals with special needs. We will set an example for all, providing humane education and special hum

ane programs to reach and guide the community. We will efficiently use our animal shelter as a safe haven to provide care, treatment, and protection of lost, abused, injured, surrendered, and/or abandoned animals.

The dog in Our Gang (also known as The Little Rascals) was Petey, an adorable, clever, and loyal pup who was a central figure in the gang's adventures. Petey, most famously known for his distinctive ""circle"" around his right eye (which made him easily recognizable), was an important and beloved member of the group, often participating in the childrenโ€™s shenanigans.

Petey was more than just a pet; he was like a member of the gang, often helping the kids get out of tricky situations or providing comic relief with his antics. His loyalty to the children, particularly Spanky and Alfalfa, made him an enduring part of the Our Gang legacy.
The dog who played Petey was actually a Bull Terrier named Pal, who was trained to perform various tricks on command. Pal's most famous trick was his ability to interact with the children in a way that made him feel like an integral part of the gangโ€™s fun. Petey's appearances in the series added warmth and humor, making him just as much of a star as the kids themselves.

Well we have over 500 photos! I always tell my students that they should find time to practice every day. The best times is during breakfast and just before bed!
My goal is to get to nearly all of the 500 by June!
Everyone has been kindly messaging me asking if they can buy their drawing ๐Ÿ˜Š, I decided to turn this into a fundraiser for our local Charlevoix Area Humane Society!
Iโ€™ll have a donation box in the studio for pickup, if I need to mail them I can make arrangements with you through messenger. The donation is clearly up to you! Any amount helps!
Letโ€™s see what three maybe more I can get done today!

Message us if you are interested in receiving your sketch! We will make arrangements. Several folks have been asking me how much? $
I want nothing, I do ask only if youโ€™d like to make a donation to our local Charlevoix Area Humane Society. I am taking donations in person at the studio if you are picking up. If I need to ship I accept Venmo. (Anything helps! )
Itโ€™s been great learning that some of these precious beloved pets have actually come from the humane society! Keep watch because Iโ€™m sketching as many as possible and it looks like I have enough references to last the year! ๐Ÿ˜‚
Letโ€™s raise some money for a good cause! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿปโค๏ธ๐ŸŽจ
P.S. if this is your first time seeing this feel free to doo a photo in the comments. There is an original post from the other day that also has about 380 cool photos! You can add to that as well. I will be working through as many as possible in the mornings and evenings. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

Our website is currently undergoing renovations and some of our adoptable animals are not appearing. We are hoping to have this remedied and our updated website up and running by the end of next week.
Until then, our available dogs can be seen below. If you are interested in any of these sweet pups, application requests can be sent to [email protected] or applications can be picked up in person at the shelter.

***Courtesy post, this dog is not at our shelter***

This is Carnage, he will be turning 4 in July and he is an Anatolian Shepard/ Great Pyrenees mix. He is a sweet goofy guy who loves to think he is a lap dog, he is a big baby. He has grown up with kids and other dogs and is great with them. He seems ok around cats but doesnโ€™t have a lot of exposure to them. I have never seen him get mean and growl or show teeth to anyone/anything. He is a bit of a barker. He is fixed, crate trained and house trained. He is food driven and will eat almost everything. He is being rehomed due to no fault of his own, his owner is struggling to find pet friendly housing.
Please contact Danielle at [email protected] for more information.

Temps are brutal right now and there are too many strays out there for rescues to help them all right now.

One simple thing that anyone can do is put a shelter out and stuff with straw only!!! Open your garage until the temps warm up!! If you can, even a spare room until temps break out of this freeze ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

Please do the best you can and try.

Meet our Pet(s) of the Week, Peach and Daisy!
These darling sisters are Peach (pink collar) and Daisy (orange collar). They are about 4 month old, redbone coonhound mixes. These girls are very sweet, but have lots of energy as puppies do and will need some training. They will also need some work in the house training department.
Daisy and Peach love toys, other dogs and pretty much everyone they meet and are sure to steal your heart! We are unsure of how they will do with cats, but are young enough that with some patience they could definitely learn to live with them. Please keep in mind, these girls are still babies and learning manners so young children may get knocked over with their excited jumps. If you are interested in meeting one of these cuties, please fill out an application and we would be happy to set up a meet and greet!
***Please note that all puppies under 9 months require puppy classes.***
