The Humane Society of Vero Beach and Indian River County is excited to announce that we've expanded the "Meet Your Match" (MYM) program to include shelter canines.

If you're unfamiliar with MYM, it's a wonderful, multifaceted program that helps us to assess the personality of dogs and cats in our shelter. Is one animal more outgoing or confident than another? MYM helps us to make those determinations using set criteria.
