Aren't Nelson and Tito the most handsome best friends? They would love more than anything to be adopted together. These boys are about four and a half years old and are neutered.
Nelson is the bigger of the two and is the leader of this little pack. He will come up to the front of the kennel and is quite the chill boy! Tito loves his big bro so much and always trusts in what he is doing. If Nelson feels all is good, Tito is close behind him. Both of the boys are easily enticed by Churu snacks!
We think the best home setting for them would be a relatively quiet household. Tito is more of an introvert and feels most comfortable when all is calm. Nelson evens out the playing field and is a bit more outgoing and social. But don't worry! Once Tito feels safe, he loves to burrow under blankets with you to snuggle. In fact, his middle name is "Cuddles", so you know that means something! Nelson loves to play with pipecleaners and water. Together, these boys are the purrfect pair.
Even though Nelson and Tito are on the young side, their teeth do need a bit of attention. So, they will be adopted out on a dental rider. What that means is that they are available for adoption but will need to be brought back to the shelter when their dental procedures are scheduled, most likely in January. So, please ask to see them when you stop by MHS for your introduction to Nelson and Tito!

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.
