"Good people are those who love animals. Animals are special creatures, and anyone who has had the good fortune to have a relationship with them knows well. Animal nobility is a real teaching. Thanks to them, we are more modest, more empathetic, more affectionate people. They give us their love unconditionally, without asking for anything in return, they do us good."

-~ Keanu Reeves

In the spirit of Christmas, let's remember the silent voices among us - our animal companions. They hold lessons of unconditional love and patience, qualities that enrich our own lives and work. This festive season, take a moment to look beyond the surface and into the soulful eyes of your pets.🐾

It's time we listened more not just at home, but in all our interactions!

Sólo un perro. 🥰

De vez en cuando la gente me dice “relájate, es sólo un perro” o “es un montón de dinero sólo por un perro”. Ellos no comprenden la distancia recorrida, el tiempo invertido o los costos incurridos por “sólo un perro”. Algunos de mis momentos de mayor orgullo han ocurrido con “sólo un perro”.
Muchas horas han pasado siendo mi única compañía “sólo un perro”, pero ni por un sólo instante me sentí despreciado. Algunos de mis momentos más tristes han sido por “sólo un perro”, y en esos días grises, el suave toque de “sólo un perro” me dio el confort y la razón para superar el día.

Si tú también piensas “es sólo un perro”, entonces probablemente entenderás frases como “sólo un amigo”, “sólo un amanecer” o “sólo una promesa”. “Sólo un perro” trae a mi vida la esencia misma de la amistad, la confianza y la alegría pura y desenfrenada. “Sólo un perro” saca a relucir la compasión y paciencia que hacen de mí una mejor persona.

Por “sólo un perro” me levantaré temprano, haré largas caminatas y miraré con ansias el futuro. Así que para mí y para gente como yo, no es “sólo un perro”, sino una encarnación de todas las esperanzas y los sueños del futuro, los recuerdos del pasado, y la absoluta alegría del momento. “Sólo un perro” saca lo bueno en mi y desvía mis pensamientos lejos de mí mismo y de las preocupaciones diarias.

Espero que algún día puedan entender que no es “sólo un perro”, sino aquello que me da humanidad y evita que yo sea “sólo un humano”. Así que la próxima vez que escuches la frase “sólo un perro”, simplemente sonríe porque ellos “simplemente no comprenden”.

🚨 Recall 🚨

Vitamin D is an important nutrient in a dog's diet, but too much can cause kidney damage and other health problems.

Dogs die. But dogs live, too. Right up until they die, they live. They live brave, beautiful lives. They protect their families. And love us. And make our lives a little brighter. And they don't waste time being afraid of tomorrow.

Talk to them too! Tell them to stay and that you’ll be right back. They understand more than we think they do. They’re excitement when you return home is priceless ❤️

WE NEED YOUR HELP. WE ARE FULL! Unfortunately we cannot take in any more dogs or cats at this time as we literally have no space. HCHS or any shelter needs adoptions. We are looking for serious adopters who will commit on their adoption. Please call or stop in during our open hours if you want to adopt. Our community needs you!

I can’t keep my dog because….
We just don’t have time for them.
We have to move.
We just had a new baby.
We don’t have a big enough home.
The kids don’t help anymore.
The kids are allergic.
The dog is too hyper.
The dog is too lazy.
The dog is having trouble housetraining.
The dog got too big.
The dog escapes out of our yard.

EXCUSES. All of them. If your pet means enough to you, you will find a way.

Pray for the people and animals in the Ukraine.

You wouldn’t think this happens often but it does.. with chip bags and other plastic bags 💔

As we all know, we enjoy watching videos of dogs, cats and all animals that bring us joy. However, there are times when we need to get that word out for safety and bring awareness to help avoid future tragedies to our 4-legged friends. This is the story about Petey.
