ANIMALS AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION
For 8 years, Glen has been a dedicated dog walker, foster, and advocate for the animals at HSDC. His time here has been filled with countless special connections, and he recently celebrated 6 months with his own HSDC alum!
In Glen’s words:
“My eight years of experiences at HSDC have been very wide and very deep. Wide because of the range of animals and people that I have been fortunate to know. Deep because of the depth of caring that is on display daily at HSDC.
Volunteering and fostering have been very satisfying, from 3-legged Ladybird to beautiful Lolita to wonderful Walker to lovable Mamma Mia and several in-between. I have loved them all.”
Glen, thank you for eight years of kindness, compassion, and dedication to the animals in our care. We’re so grateful to have you as part of the HSDC family! 💓🐾

Winifred is the last of her siblings still waiting for her happily ever after, and we would love to see her find her person!
At just 15.5 pounds, this sweet girl is a little bundle of love who may need a little extra time to come out of her shell. She can be timid at first, but once she feels comfortable, her foster mom says she’s incredibly sweet and loves nothing more than being close to her people and soaking up all the cuddles.
Think you are her person? Head over to our website to apply to meet her!

Our friends at the Delaware County Dog Shelter are looking for the perfect home for Hank the Tank! 💙🐾
Check out their page to learn more about this gentle giant!Good morning, everyone..
We would like to introduce everyone to Hank the Tank! and he is up for adoption.
Are you looking for a low- maintenance companion whose absolute favorite hobby is just existing in the same room as you. Look no further than Hank the Tank, a handsome 8- yr.-old gentleman who is ready to officially retire from the shelter life and move to a couch near you.
Hank is the definition of a gentle giant. He earned his nickname "the tank"because of his solid build, but don't let the name fool you- he is a giant ball of mush. At 8yrs old, Hank has completely outgrown all the puppy shenanigans. He doesn't care about tearing up shoes or bouncing off the walls; he just wants a soft place to land and a family to call his own.
If you are interested in Hank please call the shelter to setup meet and greet. Thank you! ...
