This beautiful girl was due to euthanized 12 hours before we saved her due to space. She came from Texas which is overloaded with unwanted animals. Luckily she's no longer unwanted.



Need a hype girl? Someone who you can't have a bad day around? One who will encourage you? Show you the joy in little things? Someone who will worship the ground you walk? If you said yes to any of these Delinda is for you!

We learned some great stuff about this girl.

-shes house broken. No chewing and doesn't need to be crated either.

-loves lounging on the couch

-did wonderful with all the other dogs she met. No longer greets other dogs inappropriately

The things that need work

-shes hyper. Always excited, she did improve greatly Jordan said. The jumping stopped and she did learn its okay to not always have to be amped up.

-crate training...not vocal and goes in crate nicely but uses the bathroom despite if she's only crated temporarily or few a few hours. Thankfully if adopter doesn't have her crated she is house broken and doesn't get into things she shouldn't

Her ideal home:

An active family with a fenced yard. She likes adventures and shows potential of being a great sporting dog (agility, lure coursing, fly ball, etc)

All and all shes a FABULOUS girl. One of my favorites.

Delinda is adorable. Full of energy so would enjoy a family that is active. She likes everyone she meets. She walks nicely on a leash.

Delinda was used as the dog tester in the shelter. She has done playtime with females and males with success. It takes a little bit for her to feel comfortable as when the dogs crowded her she would growl as she became nervous and uncomfortable.

With slower introductions as she seems fearful of new dogs there should be no issues as she played chase with a young female shepherd and a hyper female hound.

Delinda rides nicely in the car, she will curl up in the seat and enjoy the ride.

Available for adoption anywhere in the US or Canada with transport provided
