Female terrier-mix dog "Shushana," Humane Society of Huron Valley

Open Your Heart To Support Rescues And Shelter Dog Adoptions As Better Alternative To Slick Puppy Mill Pitches

September 15, 2018
Things were hopping at the Humane Society of Huron Valley this weekend. If this was an article about the expanded communities of which Saline is part, we’d point out the HSHV is only 15 miles northeast of downtown. Think of it as the cultural home for “dog people” in our community. [1,2] How about Rebel Dogs Detroit? Bill Crispin Chevrolet dealership introduced them to Saline Journal readers during its “Pickups for Paws” event last June? ....

March 30, 2018
Last month, Wired magazine published its “Guide to Self-Driving Cars.” If that article doesn’t make this subject just that simple and straightforward, it must go a long way to reinforcing the idea that autonomous vehicles are mainstream and inevitable. This is important subject matter for Saline. As a municipality, the bifurcation of downtown by US-12 makes us a likely prospect for this tech. As home to NAVYA and the greater Mcity infrastructure, Saline is part ....
