You’re Just What an Underdog is Waiting for

Oct 22, 2024

This October, Subaru’s Make a Dog’s Day is turning the spotlight on senior underdogs, those older shelter dogs who are far too often overlooked due to their age. In its fifth annual event, Subaru and our retail partners are encouraging families to consider adopting a senior dog, who may be a tad bit slower but is filled with love, loyalty, and plenty of wisdom.

Senior dogs make lovely companions. More often than not, they are calm, house-trained, and quick to settle into their new forever homes. It also helps that Subaru is helping to cover adoption costs for these older pups, making it even easier to give them a second chance at happiness. Since 2008, Subaru and our retailers have donated over $52 million to national and local organizations and impacted the lives of over 480,000 animals.

Even if you cannot adopt at this time, you can help spread the love by volunteering, donating, or getting the word out by using the hashtag #MakeADogsDay. Let’s get out there and show these sweet seniors that it is never too late for a fresh start in life.

Are you ready to make a senior dog’s day?

September’s Adorable Adoptables

Sep 23, 2024

Welcome these adorable animals below to Hallie Hill and they are up for adoption this September. Fill out an application to come out to HHAS to meet these wonderful animals! Hallie Hill conducts meet + greets and adoptions by appointment only.

Hunter

Hunter is a spirited and charming boy who adores life to the fullest! He’s very friendly with other dogs and enjoys swimming in the sanctuary’s pond. Hunter is a very sweet boy who is always ready for playtime. Hunter can feel a bit anxious around new canine friends but he warms up beautifully as time goes by. Excitement can make him slightly ‘mouthy,’ but he responds well to a ‘sit’ command followed by a delicious treat. Visit halliehill.com and apply today to meet Hunter.

Marvin

Marvin is a wonderful dog of small to medium size who interacts well with other dogs. Unfortunately, Marvin feels very insecure when visiting new places and meeting new people. As a result, he does not appreciate long walks in unfamiliar areas or having visitors in his home. After Marvin becomes comfortable with his new home and family, he may attempt to bite those that he does not recognize as “family members.” Therefore, it’s necessary to place him in a separate room or kennel when expecting visitors. To arrange a meeting with Marvin, please submit an application at HallieHill.com.

Marci

Marcie is a charming Tortoiseshell cat who does not seek out other cats, but will tolerate their presence. She has a fondness for treats and canned food and enjoys affection from her human companions. To arrange a meeting with Marcie, please submit an application at HallieHill.com.

LeeAnn

LeeAnn is a charming girl with a lot to express. She’s quite vocal, perhaps longing for a warm home filled with love and care. Her favorite time is mealtime, and she’s always happy to finish off leftovers from her companions. Her fur is remarkably soft, and she has a way of melting into you when you pet her. For those who adore hounds, LeeAnn is sure to capture your heart! To arrange a meeting with LeeAnn, please submit an application at HallieHill.com.

New at the Sanctuary- Dog Daycations!

Jul 22, 2024

We’re excited to introduce our new “Dog Daycations” program, where our shelter dogs and volunteers get to enjoy a fun-filled day together. Volunteers can take a shelter dog out for an adventure, whether it’s a stroll in the park, a refreshing swim, or other enjoyable activities. This initiative not only gives our dogs a delightful break from the shelter environment but also offers volunteers a rewarding experience of companionship and joy.

Enrichment is a wonderful thing for a shelter animal and having the opportunity to participate in new experiences and explore the world is the most valuable kind of enrichment (unless it’s getting their very own home!) The dogs learn A LOT and we learn A LOT about the dogs! It’s a WIN-WIN. Become a Tier 3 Volunteer and go on a Dog Daycation! You’ll be glad you did!

Check out what our volunteers have to say about their experiences with our “Dog Daycations” program and get to know some of our wonderful dogs! Read their heartwarming stories and see how these special outings have created unforgettable moments and strengthened the bond between our shelter dogs and their human companions.
