My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Gwen
Gwen is a Female Doodle
DOB: March 9, 2024
Adoption fee: $150.00

I have typical Labradoodle energy and behavior. I am learning to walk on a leash but will need to learn manners and boundaries. I am recommended for children 10 years and older. I get a bit overstimulated, and I jump a lot which could be overwhelming for younger children.

I will require a physically fenced yard. I am sure to just go wherever my crazy doodle brain decides it wants me to go. I am very excitable in the shelter setting; I would do much better in a home atmosphere with less commotion. Pending a meet and greet I should do well with another dog with similar energy. With a slow acclimation, I should do okay with dog-friendly cats.

I would do my best with someone with breed experience. With a calmer atmosphere, structure, and daily exercise I will be a great companion for the right situation.

If you are interested in being my adopter, please visit my shelter's website and complete the adoption application that is available there! HSSCM.org you can find the applications under the "adoptions" tab.

We are the area's nonprofit advocate, sanctuary and source for companion animals since 1887.

Our Mission:

We believe in second chances at the Humane Society of South Central Michigan. Our service area includes all of Calhoun County and parts of Kalamazoo, Barry and Branch counties.

The Watkins Road shelter cares for up to 100 animals a day, and adopts out more than 500 animals a year. Countless area residents use the Society’s animal care, adoption and education programs each year. The Humane Society is overseen by a board of directors. We do not receive any government or tax dollars, or national humane organization funding. Our services are made possible by people in our community who care about homeless cats and dogs - people like you!

The Humane Society of South Central Michigan values:
-The ethical and humane treatment of animals
-Its role as a shelter for animals that suffer from pain, fear, and neglect
