Success Stories:  The successful placement of a dog or a cat into someone's home is a special event for all the people who support Lake Haven Rescue. It's also very special to receive feedback from those who have adopted. There are so may "Happy Tails" (i.e. Success Stories) we hope these will warm your heart as they have ours.

 


Public Events Calendar:  See what Lake Haven Rescue is up to. Volunteers are at the Petsmart in Grandville the 1st three Saturday's of each month. Plus, other public events are listed on the calendar.    

 


Volunteer Calendar:  Calling all volunteers! We are looking for help to provide additional coverage at the Petsmart store located in Grandville. If your interested in helping with the adoption of cats take a look at the new calendar we have created to help volunteers keep track of the days they can help. If you have some time to donate to this effort please call Cheryl at 231 652-7507.
