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.

💚🐾Another successful doggy playgroup! 🐾💚
Yesterday, Gypsy and Prescott had the chance to spend some time together, and they were both all smiles! These two very adoptable pups had a blast running, playing, and socializing in our front yard.
Playgroups are a great way for dogs to burn off energy, build confidence, and show off their social skills—and Gypsy and Prescott did an amazing job! They got along wonderfully, enjoyed plenty of exercise, and had so much fun together.
If you're looking for a dog who enjoys canine companionship and is ready for a loving home, be sure to keep Gypsy and Prescott in mind. Could one of these happy pups be your new best friend?
🐶 Watch them in action below, and apply to adopt!

A huge thank you to our amazing friends at Hair of the Dog Pet Grooming and Boarding for taking such wonderful care of one of Bear! ❤️🐾
When he arrived at our shelter, he was severely matted around his hind end and was in desperate need of some TLC. Thanks to their kindness and expertise, he's now clean, comfortable, smooth, and shining from head to tail. Most importantly, he's feeling so much better!
We are incredibly grateful for their generosity in grooming our shelter dogs at no cost whenever they need it. Their compassion and support make a real difference in the lives of the animals in our care, and we couldn't be more thankful.
Please help us show them some love by checking out their page and supporting this wonderful local business. Thank you for helping our shelter pets look and feel their very best! 💙🐶 ... See MoreSee Less

🚨 Fosters Needed! 🚨
We can't save more dogs without foster homes.
Every dog placed into foster frees up a kennel, allowing us to rescue another dog that urgently needs help.
Worried about the cost? Don't be! Our rescue provides:
✅ Food
✅ Beds
✅ Toys
✅ Supplies
✅ Veterinary care
You provide the love and temporary home. We provide the rest.
Fostering saves lives, gives dogs a chance to thrive in a home environment, and helps our rescue reach more animals in need.
Interested in fostering? Fill out a foster application today!
