**Please note that, although we try to keep our site updated as often as possible, some of our animals may have already found loving homes**
CLICK HERE to find our ADOPTION APPLICATION Please stop in to the shelter and visit the pet that you think may be a good match for you. The Lenawee Humane Society houses many more pets than you see here -- often as many as one hundred -- so plan a visit to the shelter to see all the available pets (this site may not have all the animals up for adoption pictured). OUR POLICY & ADOPTION FEES:
The adoption fee includes routine vaccinations and blood tests up to date for each animal, with the exception of a rabies vaccine. It does not include spaying or neutering of that animal (although some animals have this done while residing at our shelter). This must be done at your own expense by your veterinarian if the animal you take home is not sterilized at the time of adoption.
All animals at the Lenawee Humane Society are now microchipped and registered with 24PetWatch! LENAWEE HUMANE SOCIETY ADOPTION POLICY In order to adopt a pet from LHS, you must meet the following conditions:
The Lenawee Humane Society reserves the right to refuse adoptions to anyone. Each one of our animals has different needs and we try to place them accordingly. Please understand that completing this application does not guarantee you will be approved. No animals will be adopted to prospective owners who mislead our staff or fail to provide accurate information on the adoption application. We will hold an animal for an approved adopter for one business day only. You will have the option to Foster an animal for 3-5 days before completing the adoption. This requires a refundable deposit equal to the adoption fee of the animal you are interested in. You must finalize the adoption or return the animal to the shelter at the end of your foster period. The adoption price is $75.00 if the animal you wish to adopt is already spayed/neutered. If the animal you wish to adopt is not spayed/neutered the adoption price is $60.00 plus a $25.00 sterilization deposit (total $85.00). This deposit and spay/neuter contract is required by Michigan law to ensure all animals adopted from shelters are sterilized. When you have the animal spayed/neutered at your cost and bring in the sterilization contract signed by your vet, the deposit of $25.00 will be refunded within two weeks or you may choose to donate your deposit back to LHS to help us have more animals spayed/neutered. The adoption price includes all vaccinations and tests up to date with the exception of rabies. It does not include sterilization of animals not spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. The Lenawee Humane Society does not have a licensed veterinarian on staff at the shelter, therefore rabies vaccines must be given by your vet if not current at the time of adoption. Please allow a minimum of 1 hour for us to complete the adoption process. This allows us to ensure our animals are going to loving homes and also to answer any questions you may have. You may fax or email an adoption application to us at any time to get a head start on the approval process. All adoptions stop at 4:00 PM. We apologize for any inconvenience and will continue the approval process for any submitted applications on Within two weeks of adoption: We ask that you take your new pet to a veterinarian for a checkup, and to schedule the animal to be spayed or neutered (if needed). This helps you to ensure that you have adopted a happy and healthy new pet.Please Remember... One of the Lenawee Humane Society's goals is to control pet over-population and prevent so many animals from becoming unwanted, like this abandoned puppy that was picked up by Animal Control.
