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!
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.
- 11,100+ lives saved since 2019
- 1,906 adoptions in 2024
- 2,180 foster placements in 2024
ANIMALS AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION
🐾 We’re Running Low on Two Shelter Essentials! 🐾
We could use your help restocking spray cheese AND rope leashes for our dogs!
🧀 Spray cheese helps us make medication time a little easier and can encourage dogs who aren’t feeling well or aren’t interested in eating.
🪢 Rope leashes are used every day by our dog team for walks, enrichment, and getting our pups safely where they need to go.
We’re running low on both, and donations would make a big difference for the dogs in our care!
You can purchase these items through our Amazon Wishlist and have them shipped directly to HSDC. Every donation helps!

Look Who Found Their Families! 🏡❤️
We had some wonderful adoption news last week! 🎉 Chunk, Honey, Gilbert, and Brutus all found their forever homes!
We also had lots of animals head into trial adoptions, and we’re keeping our fingers crossed that those adoptions become official this week!
Every adoption means we’re making more space to welcome the next animals in need. We’re so grateful to everyone who opens their home to a shelter animal and helps make these happy endings possible! ❤️🐾
Here’s to even more adoptions this week! ... See MoreSee Less
