Each week, WKTV features an adoptable furry friend (or few) from various shelters in the Grand Rapids area. This week, we focus on Humane Society of West Michigan, located at 3077 Wilson Dr. NW in Grand Rapids.
Humane Society of West Michigan’s mission is to rescue hurt, abused and abandoned animals and find them new, forever homes. The 501(c)3 non-profit organization helps over 8,000 animals annually and is 100% donor-funded by caring individuals and businesses in the community. Additional programs help reduce pet overpopulation, provide assistance to low-income pet owners, behaviorally assess animals and reunite lost pets with their owners.
Bates – Male Shepherd Mix
I’m a happy 3-year-old dog looking to find my forever family! I have a happy face and a lot of love to give. I am currently sharing a kennel with a female dog and we get along very well. Homes with children would be required to bring their children in to meet with me prior to adoption. Please come meet me at Humane Society of West Michigan and see if we are the right fit!
