Lake Haven's Most Used & Important Links

Support No-Kill Animal Shelters  Lake Haven believes that the "No-Kill" approach to ending the unnecessary killing of dogs and cats is a sound approach. Unfortunately, most people do not know that most of the largest animal support organization in this country ignore the successes of "No-Kill" shelters and continue to destroy adoptable animals. How is the money you donate being used by these organizations?

Please Contact Your Congressman  You can help to put an end to pound seizure and inhumane euthanasia in Michigan. Please help.

Online Donations  Lake Haven can now accept credit card and PayPal donations from our website. Spread the word!

Electronic Newsletter  Our hardcopy newsletter was just mailed to people who have made donations in the past. We have also created an expanded version for online viewing. You can easily subscribe or unsubscribe so please check it out, it has many great success stories.

Holiday Videos  Darlene Ninnemann (a special volunteer at Lake Haven) created holiday DVDs that were distributed as special gifts. They are just beautiful. We have made them available for all to enjoy. 

More Videos and Stuff  DOnce in a while we get some home videos and other fun stuff that we want to share. The videos are from our dog foster program. Check them out. If you are interested in fostering check out our 'How You Can Help' page.

Photo Gallery  We have created a photo gallery of various pictures we have taken of dogs and cats that have been rescued. In addition we use this gallery to temporally hold new picture during the process of edition. We think you might enjoy the "Slideshow" view of the dog & cat albums.

Some Success Stories  We have had many success stories over the years. We wish we could tell all the stories. Here are a few of the success stories we have collected with pictures sent in by their new owners. If you have adopted from us we would love to hear from you and please send us some pictures. Send them to petstories@lakehavenrescue.org.

Patty,  a sweetheart of a young mother cat.

This new mommy who is 10 months old and had 4 kittens that are about 6 weeks old - two orange and white and two tiger. She is an excellent mommy, very affectionate and loves attention. She has extra toes and one of her kittens does too.

Her experience at being a mother cat has made this girl VERY affectionate. We think that once you come to PetSmart to see this sweet girl you will want to take her home..

If your interested in these great cats please complete an online application or call Cheryl at 231-652-7507 for more info. He is up to date on vaccines and tested with what is called a triple test for HW/FELV/FIV. &  See more details. 

Prince,  what a smart dog who will steal your heart.

He is a 3 year old mix of an Australian & German Shepherd. Prince has gone through basic training and has proved to be a quick learner, a dog that wants to please. His learning ability is above average and will be an attentive and obedient friend. As his breed indicates he is an active dog that must have exercise. Because he has so much energy he would not be a good fit for very small children. He gets along well with other dogs but as with any dog introduction it should be supervised and controlled.
This dog is one of the smartest dogs we have had at Lake Haven and he has captured the hearts of more then one volunteer. Because of his high energy level his placement must be to an adopter who is an active person, dog savvy, and willing to give this wonderful dog the attention he deserves. /span>

Special Needs Adoptions

Occasionally we come across an animal that clearly deserves a loving home but have "Special Needs" that will require kind attention from that special person.

Ajax,  Loves attention but on his terms.

Ajax is a extremely social cat and loves to play, rough play however, will over stimulate this young cat and cause him to "love nip" something that some people find offensive. We are looking for cat savy people for this gorgeous , and friendly cat. He is better with female cats than males. He is vey clean about his litter box and that has never been an issue. He has been neutered and declawed in the front, and fully vaccinated. Because he may need some work with the nipping thing his adoption fee has been cut in half to $50.00, to give an incentive to help this young man.

If your interested in these great cats please complete an online application or call Cheryl at 231-652-7507 for more info. He is up to date on vaccines and tested with what is called a triple test for HW/FELV/FIV.   See more details.
