Meet Your New Best Friend!
Every animal available for adoption at The Humane Society of Delaware County is special and deserves love, but these pets need special people, and we hope it’s you!
We hope you can join us on Saturday, July 18th for our Wine, Dine, and Whiskers 2026 FurBall!
Enjoy an evening of fun, food, and entertainment while helping raise vital funds to care for animals in need.
Helping People Help Pets!
It’s pets and their humans that make difference! Our stats demonstrate how our community supports our mission. When you consider that the HSDC is not supported at the county, state or federal government level, it takes a lot of love and dedication from donors to support daily operations. As a 501(c)(3), your donations are tax deductible.

Junior is a larger than life sweetheart with an even bigger heart. This giant boy may look tough, but he’s convinced he’s a tiny lap cat at heart. After sadly losing his owner, Junior struggled with anxiety and depression, but with time, love, and plenty of encouragement, he’s beginning to shine again.
These days, his favorite things are soaking up pets, purring nonstop, and enjoying his beloved wet food though he’s a little less enthusiastic about the diet we’ve started him on. Junior is truly one of a kind: a quirky, lovable ball of fluff looking for a patient home where he can feel safe, spoiled, and adored once again. ... See MoreSee Less

Meet Crystal 💎
Crystal is a beautiful Dalmatian mix who has been in our care since September 2025. When Crystal arrived, she came with her 5 puppies & while all of her pups quickly found loving homes, Crystal is still waiting for someone to see the special dog she truly is.
For the past 7 months, Crystal has watched families come and go, hoping each day might finally be her turn.
Crystal dreams of an active home, one with structure, routine, adventure, and ideally other playful dogs to help keep her company. She would thrive with someone committed to continuing her training and helping her channel her energy in positive ways. She already knows commands, LOVES treats, squeaky toys, hikes, runs, and staying busy.
Crystal is a high-energy girl who can become overly excited in shelter life. When given proper stimulation, consistency, and outlets for her energy, she is an amazing companion. A toy in her mouth and a job to do make all the difference for her.
She will need slow introductions and a patient adopter or foster who understands that she’s been waiting a very long time for stability and connection.
We know Crystal’s person is out there — she just needs someone willing to give her the chance she deserves. ❤️
Please share to help us find Crystal a foster or forever home- she needs out of the shelter asap!
