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.

🐾 MINNIE UPDATE! 🐾
Remember Minnie, the sweet girl who was found abandoned near a dumpster? We wanted to share a really exciting update, she is doing AMAZING in our trainer’s home! ❤️
Minnie has been a pretty perfect house guest. She’s easy in the house, settling into a routine, and showing us more of her personality every day. She came to us with limited socialization, so she’s still learning about the big world around her, but she is making progress every single day in her current foster home. And another great update: her trainer has no concerns about Minnie going to a home with another dog! 🐶🐶
She has been doing well around other dogs, which gives us even more options as we search for the right family for her.
We also think Minnie may be a Beabull, a Beagle/Bulldog mix, and seriously… could she be any cuter?! 😍
Overall, Minnie has been an easy, wonderful house guest, and what we’re seeing in a home environment has been incredibly encouraging. She is continuing to work on socialization, confidence, and experiencing new things while surrounded by people who are committed to setting her up for success. Now we’d love to find the next right place for this adorable girl. ❤️
If you think Minnie might be a fit for your home, or you know someone who could be, please reach out to the Humane Society of Delaware County.
And please share Mini’s post! Her person might be scrolling right now. 🐾💕 ...

🌟 VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT: CHERYL COOPER! 🌟
If you’ve walked through the doors of HSDC, there’s a good chance you’ve seen Cheryl’s smiling face!
Cheryl is here more days than not, often spending several hours volunteering her time to help keep our shelter running smoothly. She takes wonderful care of our cats and small animals, keeps our lobby clean and welcoming for everyone who walks through our doors, and is always ready to lend a hand wherever she’s needed.
And if you ask our staff, they’ll probably mention another one of Cheryl’s talents: she has a habit of showing up with donuts! 🍩
After seeing her so often, Cheryl has truly become a staple here at HSDC. Her kindness, consistency, and genuine love for the animals make such a difference—not just for the animals in our care, but for our staff and everyone who visits our shelter.
Thank you, Cheryl, for everything you do for HSDC. We’re so lucky to have you! ❤️ ...
