Humane Milwaukee Pet of the Week: Nala
We can't quite decide who is more in love with Nala: the humans who serve her or Nala herself! If there is one thing we can all agree on, it is that Nala knows exactly what she wants and it is nothing short of everything.

Humane Milwaukee pet of the week: Aaden
I'm often asked how or why I first got involved in animal welfare. While that is an interesting story and one I may share in the future, I am more interested in explaining why I've stayed and gradually increased my involvement.

Companion Animal Resource Center Pet of the Week: Betty
We don't often receive Saint Bernards at animal control so she caught my attention a few days later when I noticed her still waiting for her family. I felt bad for her -- she seemed depressed, looked thin, and acted old.
