“Treating customers (people & pets) as family!”

 

WSTW loves pets! That’s why we’ve partnered with Humane Animal Partners (formerly Delaware Humane Association and Delaware SPCA) to bring you our Pets of the Week. Each week, we’ll show you a cat and a dog from Humane Animal Partners who need good homes. 

Pets of the week

Calling all GSD lovers, meet Slade! This handsome guy is a 4-year-old German Shepherd with the sweetest personality. Slade came to HAP when his owner unexpectedly went into hospice and sadly has passed away. Understandably, he was a little depressed his first few days at the shelter but has really blossomed with time! While we didn't have the chance to know his owner, you can tell that they absolutely adored him. Slade loves compliments, as if he's used to hearing how handsome he is! He is very well socialized with people, loving everyone he meets and being the best-behaved boy. Slade already knows basic commands, appears house-trained, and walks well on a leash. He also has fairly good recall and is quick to respond to his name. He has done well with other dogs, though he can't tell the difference between cats and squirrels so a kitty-free home would be best. He loves zooming around our fenced fields, playing with squeaky balls, and more than anything - he LOVES being loved! Slade is a total mush, he will do anything for neck, ear, back, or butt scratches.

Zelda is a 5-year-old mixed breed with the biggest heart! She came to HAP when her owners could no longer care for her. Despite being in the shelter after living in a home, she has remained a lover girl. Zelda enjoys meeting new people and is very friendly. She is also a regular participant in our Doggy Day Out program, where volunteers take dogs on outings with them! When she's not enjoying a hike with our volunteers or snuggled up with someone on staff, you can usually find her curled up on her bed enjoying a long nap. Zelda also enjoys going for long walks and playing with stuffs. Zelda already knows basic commands, walks well on a leash, and is very eager to please. She has done well meeting other dogs, though she prefers calm, gentle doggy friends best!

Come meet our playful, goofy guy Garth! He is a 1-year-old cattle dog mix who could not be more true to the breed, as he has a go-go-go personality! Garth came to HAP from a high-intake shelter in Alabama when they no longer had space for him. Despite being at the shelter, this guy is full of life! In true heeler fashion, he is a high-energy, active pup looking for a job to do. Garth would make the perfect running or walking buddy, as he loves spending time outside. He LOVES toys and is very food-motivated, making the training possibilities endless! When he's not chasing a toy around our fenced fields, he can usually be found patiently waiting by his kennel door for some attention. Garth can be overwhelming for some other dogs as he takes his herding job very seriously but has made a few canine friends who don't mind and can keep up with him! After some exercise and play, he melts into a laid-back snuggle bug and absolutely LOVES his belly rubs!

Whether Jozi's sitting on your lap or you're just giving her all the love while she lounges on her perch, Jozi would be content to get all the attention all day long. Majority of the time, Jozi is perched high up on the tower where she sprawls out and enjoys her cat naps or she overlooks the other rooms where she keeps an eye on all the humans and dogs. One super cute thing Jozi does is she scoops at her kibble with her paws and tries to eat with her hands. She especially loves to eat when she has company in the room. It's like she wants to have her meals with her favorite humans and she'll happily greet you before heading over to chow down. Jozi likes to play with the feathers and ribbons and once she's down, she'll stretch out ready to get all the pets you have to offer! Jozi is an absolute sweetheart of a cat and has been waiting for her furever home so stop by today to meet this loveable bug!

Meet Lora, our beautiful 6-year-old tabby girl! This pretty lady was brought to HAP by some good Samaritans, who had been feeding her for a few months, after she showed up very skinny to their feral colony. Once she fattened up a bit, she started to show off her sweet side, and her new friends knew that she didn't belong in the outdoors! Lora is a super sweetheart, though she can be a little bossy at times! She likes things to happen on her terms, but when they do, she's a very loving girl! When they don't happen, she does give a little reminder tap that she runs this show! Lora doesn't like the other cats, and will make that dislike very well known! We don't recommend she go to a home with children or dogs.

Meet Monica, our beautiful 7-year-old girl! This little lady came to HAP as a stray momma. She's a very adventurous lady and will need a home that can safely let her spend time inside and outside. Monica has spent time in foster and was adopted from us, but her current owner didn't feel like the neighborhood was a safe one for Monica's wandering ways. Monica has a great personality and loves being with people. She will keep you entertained and give you snuggles when she finally stops exploring. She enjoys being with people and spending time indoors. Monica would make a wonderful working cat for a small farm or business that would like an outdoor cat that will also bring them affection and love!

ABOUT HAP

Known formerly as Delaware Humane Association and Delaware SPCA, Humane Animal Partners is committed to connecting people with animals, building strong relationships to better the community, and preventing cruelty to animals. These pillars are brought to life through programs that provide shelter and adoption for unwanted and homeless pets, reduce pet overpopulation through low-cost spay/neuter, and enable pet retention by providing low-cost wellness services. HAP has 3 locations in Wilmington, Stanton/Christiana, and Rehoboth Beach. Visit humaneanimalpartners.org to learn how to adopt, volunteer, donate, foster, and more.

ADOPTION PROCESS

Our adoption process is designed to help you and your family find the perfect match in a pet. When the right match is made, we strive to conduct our adoptions thoughtfully, transparently, and with the utmost respect. HAP asks those interested in adopting to please submit an adoption questionnaire at //www.humaneanimalpartners.org/adopt/adoption-process/  prior to visiting! All animals from HAP are spayed/neutered, given age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and examined by a vet prior to adoption.
