Buddy has been at MHS for 64 days! And you know what that means... right now his adoption fee is completely WAIVED!

He is a 9 year old boxer who is looking for a home where he can enjoy his golden years as the only spoiled dog. Don't let his age fool you though, this frosted faced cutie still has plenty of energy and will enjoy playing in the yard or going with you on daily walks. He loves people and just wants to find a soft spot to land.

Visit Buddy today until 6pm or check out our adoptable pets online at www.midlandshumanesociety.org/adopt. All pets that have been available for adoption for over 30 days have waived adoption fees through Saturday, April 12th!

Another day, another "let's find Dottie a home!!" post! 🥹

Dottie is a 1.5-year-old Pointer mix and she is the longest resident dog at the shelter, having been at MHS since late June 2024. She is nearing her one-year mark here at MHS, making it almost half her life living in a kennel instead of in a loving home. She is a dog who prefers the company of humans rather than other animals, and we know this is a large reason she has been overlooked. However, we know there is an amazing home out there looking for a single, spoiled dog to be the light of their lives... and we're asking for YOUR help to find that home.

Visit Dottie today until 6pm or check out our available pets online at www.midlandshumanesociety.org/adopt

Ridley is ready to settle into his new home....

Meet Tilly! 🥰

She is a 6-year-old pit mix who was found as a stray in a walmart parking lot back in January. She is laid back, gentle girl who is as sweet as can be. She went to the Clarinda Correctional Facility as part of their dog training program, and being the smart girl she is, she excelled with her training. She loves everyone she meets and we think she will be a great addition to most any home. Tilly will need to be adopted to an area without a breed ban.

Visit Tilly today until 6pm or check out our adoptable pets online at www.midlandshumanesociety.org/adopt🐾

Sweet Archie wants to say hi! 👋

Archie is a 2y old, neutered male, Husky mix. Archie is a very sweet boy that is looking for someone that will give him time to warm up and show his personality. Right now new things are a bit scary so a quiet home that can help build his confidence would be ideal. Archie has done ok with other dogs but is very shy on introductions.

Come meet Archie and our other adoptable animals until 5p today!

Say hello to Maverick 👋

Maverick is a 2 & 1/2 year old, neutered male Lab Mix. Maverick went through the Clarinda Prison Dog Training program so has learned some basic obedience skills. He would benefit from a home that could continue working with him to build these skills. Maverick would need a meet and greet with any potential housemates as he can be a bit selective with other dogs. He has never been around cats.

You can come meet Maverick and our other adoptable animals today until 5pm!

This morning we were joined by the sophomore class of Underwood Community Schools as part of their “Integration” event that encourages students to learn about community service and how they can help out.

These awesome students helped with general cleaning and even put on some gardening gloves to pull some nuisance weeds from the front of our property. Like we sometimes say, “it’s not always puppies and kittens around here!”. With that being said, we definitely made sure these hard workers got to spend some time socializing with a couple of our adoptable dogs.

Thank you to this great bunch of kids for spending your morning volunteering with us at MHS. We are very grateful for all your hard work!
