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
ANIMALS AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION
Meet Davina.
She’s the quiet kind of beautiful you don’t notice all at once, but slowly, like the first soft breeze of the morning slipping through an open window. The kind that makes you pause without even realizing it.
At 2.5 years old, Davina is gentle in every sense of the word. She moves through the world carefully, like she’s still learning which places are safe and which ones might be too much. In her foster home, she’s been unfolding little by little, finding comfort in routine, in soft voices, in the quiet moments that most dogs rush past.
She gets along well with other dogs and has even been at ease around cats, drifting alongside them without fuss. But what she really craves is calm. Loud homes, busy energy, and lots of noise is not her ideal environment, so she’s searching for a peaceful space, one without loud children, where she can finally exhale.
Davina is the warmth from a coffee cup held between your hands, the stillness of an early morning before the world wakes up. She won’t demand attention, but she’ll be there, steady and soft, forming a bond that feels more like a quiet understanding than anything else.
She just needs someone willing to meet her in that quiet.
