Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This enthusiastic, happy-go-lucky, everyone-is-his-friend good boy is Bean Bear. His tail wags so fast it turns into a blur! We're not sure we've ever met a more joyful pup! He's such a great size; he weighs about 39-pounds! He's got a derpy lil' personality and we can't get enough of him.
We would love to see Bean Bear find someone who is active and energetic like he is. If you're a hiker, we could see him being right next to you the entire way. If you're a runner or a walker, we just know he'd be there with you to complete your daily steps.
Another awesome thing about Bean Bear is that he really does seem to enjoy meeting people. We are teaching him polite manners and he sure is catching on already! Once he has hung out with you for a little bit, he settles down and is super willing to work for treats. Bean Bear knows how to sit and he is very tuned in to whoever he is working with!
If you have another dog friend, they should be high-energy and love to play like Bean Bear does. As far as kitties go, a slow introduction would be best as Bean Bear is an active dude! We think kiddos should be sturdy, so maybe 8ish and up. Bean Bear is about one year old and he is neutered, so come to MHS to meet him! You won't be disappointed...trust us!

Come into the shelter to meet our animals! We find the best way to select a pet is to spend time with them. Sometimes what you expect from a photo on Facebook is not what you’ll find when you meet them. We want you to know the good and the challenging about our animals!
Fill out an application at the shelter. We do not provide applications in advance, because we want you to meet the pet first. Allow yourself fifteen minutes or so to complete the two page application.
You call us the next day for our decision. We review applications during the shelter’s closed hours. Sometimes we will have questions, or you might want to bring your dog to the shelter to see if it gets along with your potential new dog. Once we are all ready, we will schedule an appointment to complete your adoption contract, pay your fees and take your new pet home!
That includes all initial vaccinations (except rabies), spay or neuter if required, heartworm or feline leukemia testing, and flea treatments.

Our adoption process is easy as 1-2-3!

More about this shelter
The Michiana Humane Society provides a safe harbor for 1,200+ animals yearly. Most of these animals are surrendered by their owners who can no longer provide care. We also take in strays, abandoned, and unwanted animals found in our service area. Once here, healthy, non-aggressive animals are assured of our care until we find them homes, no matter how long it takes.
With an annual budget of around $550,000, our caring staff and volunteers provide shelter, food, basic medical care, and vaccinations. Since 2015, 100% of our dogs, cats and rabbits are spayed or neutered before being adopted. We are a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization relying solely on private donations; we receive no tax funds to help with our mission.
Our service area includes both LaPorte County in Indiana and Berrien County in Michigan, but depending on the animal we sometimes adopt beyond those borders.
The Michiana Humane Society & SPCA has been a leader in animal welfare since 1920, when a group of local women in the Long Beach, Indiana area began to collect small amounts of money to care for stray animals. In 1948, the organization incorporated and evolved into the Michiana Humane Society & SPCA, Inc. Over the years volunteers kept the shelter going with private donations and hard work.
The shelter moved to its current location at 722 Indiana Highway 212 in Michigan City in 1997. The shelter was designed to provide plenty of space for our residents, with separate facilities for dogs, cats, and other small animals. A classroom space is used for educational offerings and group activities, and Alynne’s Animal Aid Center, our veterinary suite, provides medical care for the shelter’s animals. Our outside space includes a kennel for dog play adjacent to the building, the three-part Bark Park for meeting dogs, and a three-acre fenced dog park used by the shelter to walk and exercise dogs, and available to the community by membership.
