People kept asking what breed Marina was…

Our best guess? 🤔

🐰 Bunny
🦭 Seal
👽 Baby Yoda
🐶 Puppy

The ears kept changing, so we were still investigating.

What we do know is that Marina is a 4 month old Pit Bull Terrier mix who captured a lot of hearts, and we’re excited to share that she was adopted last night! 🤎

After surviving a dog attack and learning to trust again, Marina is officially headed home with a family of her own.

A special thank you to for helping make adoptions like Marina’s possible through waived adoption fees for select pets in our care.

And for anyone who fell in love with Marina’s ears, personality, and puppy charm, don’t worry. We have plenty of other wonderful animals still waiting to write their own happy ending.

As National Pet Month comes to a close, one small reminder can make a life changing difference: microchip your pets 🐾

According to national data, lost pets with microchips are reunited with their families at significantly higher rates than those without one. In fact, reunion rates are nearly 3X higher for microchipped pets.

At Michigan Humane, we see firsthand how quickly accidents can happen. Open doors. Broken fences. Loud storms. A scared pet slipping away in seconds.

A microchip cannot prevent a pet from getting lost, but it can help bring them home.

Thank you to for helping spotlight the importance of pet identification and safety throughout National Pet Month.

Animal welfare does not exist in a bubble.

When people in our communities have stronger support systems, animals benefit too. Safer housing, access to resources, mental health support, emergency response, and community wellbeing all directly impact the lives of pets and the people who love them.

That is why our team is attending the 2026 Mackinac Policy Conference this week.

Because advocating for animals also means being part of larger conversations shaping the future of Michigan.

Throughout the week, our President and CEO and Chief Philanthropy Officer connected with leaders, supporters, and organizations from across the state, including interviews with and , former Michigan Humane board member and longtime friend of our organization.

We are proud to continue making sure animals, and the people who love them, are represented in rooms where important conversations are happening.

We know we cannot save every animal.

But to the animal being pulled from the highway, rushed into surgery, treated after abuse, or finally held safely after days of fear, being helped means everything.

This is why we do it 💔

Our Critical Care Fund exists for the animals with no one else paying for their emergency care. The strays. The severe injuries. The animals who arrive needing immediate treatment, surgery, and time to heal.

Thank you to for continuing to support animals in our care every step of the way 🤍

It’s Time to Pass Queenie’s Law and End Animal Testing in Michigan - Michigan Humane 05/26/2026

Pets deserve a life of love, not a life in a lab.

For nearly 150 years, Michigan Humane has advocated for the humane treatment and welfare of animals in our community. Today, we are urging support for Queenie’s Law (HB 4254 and SB 127), legislation that would end painful and distressing testing on dogs in Michigan research facilities.

This is an animal welfare issue that cannot be ignored.

Read our latest blog to learn why Michigan Humane believes now is the time to pass Queenie’s Law and help create a more humane future for pets in our state.
