We are a 501c(3) public charity dealing with animal issues in Antrim County, Michigan.

WaLHFMF has plans for a sanctuary soon that will assist Antrim County agencies such as animal control by offering a place to hold pets that are in true emergency situations. That might be the pet's owner is hospitalized or dies suddenly, maybe a family’s home burns down and there is nowhere for the pets to go. This will not, be a place for the public to bring in a pet but it will be a place for the public to visit. WaLHFMF’s new sanctuary will offer adoption of pets that cannot be reunited with their owner, a place for the non adoptable pets to live out their lives and a place for schools and community groups to visit. Programs created to assist and educate the public with animal issues will be offered and of course, fun opportunities for volunteers.

Adopting a friend:

All pets in WaLHFMF's care receive a spay or neuter, shots and are dewormed. A veterinary appointment must be made for the pet you are adopting with the vet of your choice for a pet check up and any follow up is the responsibility of the new owner. There is an adoption contract and WaLHFMF does follow up on the adoption.


Please, consider making a donation today so we can get this sanctuary up and running!

HOW ELSE CAN YOU HELP?

Although we appreciate cash donations immensely,

there are other ways that you can help as well:
Listed below are just a few of them. Thank you in advance!

Elk Rapids and Rapid City Village Markets give WaLHFMF (and other charitable organizations) credit, and at the end of the year, MONEY for receipts that we collect throughout the year. Last year, they donated $774 to our cause. Thank you Village Markets! Please send in your grocery and gas receipts to WaLHFMF to help make next years donation even better!

Davie Looman has written a wonderful book about his adventures with his best friend, "Shempi: Earning the Right to Be Called Her Master." Relive some of these moments with him and his companion. You can purchase the book HERE or you can get a signed copy by E-mailing Davie HERE. You can also send 14.95 Plus 3.00 shipping to SHEMPI, BOX 235, ALDEN, MI 49612.
Davie and his wife Joyce have donated to WaLHFMF, so it would be great to help support our supporters, and get a great read to boot!


Donate a Bed
The floors of shelters are cold and a Kuranda bed would give the dogs a warm, elevated bed to lie on during cold nights. Some dogs already have beds, but we don't have enough for everyone. Please go to their website to donate a bed to shelter dog in your name or as a gift for a friend or family member. Kuranda will mail a personalized Gift Card acknowledgement directly to them.
