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.
- 11,100+ lives saved since 2019
- 1,906 adoptions in 2024
- 2,180 foster placements in 2024

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helps make a difference for the animals at Humane Society of Delaware County.
From First Friday raising $300 in donations, to DHL’s annual Dog Days event bringing in $401 plus an additional $50 donation from Arctic Surfer, whose shaved ice was a welcome treat on a hot afternoon, your generosity continues to amaze us. Several employees also submitted applications to adopt. 🥳
Thank you to Barley Hopsters, Fat Head’s Brewery, and all of the bars and restaurants that participated in the first-ever Bar Crawl, which raised an amazing $921 for the animals. We’re excited to hear Barley Hopsters hopes to make this a yearly tradition!
A special thank you to Girl Scout Troop 6153 for creating no-sew adoption blankets for our animals and taking the time to learn more about HSDC and responsible animal care. They enjoyed having some playtime with the cats, but then again who wouldn’t. 😻
Every donation, every volunteer hour, and every act of kindness helps us provide care, comfort, and second chances to animals in need. We truly couldn’t do this work without the support of our incredible community. From all of us at HSDC—and the animals whose lives you touch—thank you! ❤️🐾 ... See MoreSee Less
