My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Petey, Sweetie, and Honey Bee: A Loving Trio Looking for a Foster Home Where They Can Stay Together
At Faithful Friends, we believe that every dog deserves to feel loved and cherished, especially in their golden years. Petey (11), Sweetie (12), and Honey Bee (10) are three senior dogs who found themselves at our shelter after their owner, due to health challenges, realized he could no longer provide them with the care and love they deserve. While they’re safe here, their hearts are heavy as they wonder why they’re no longer in their home.
This bonded trio has spent their lives together, and now they’re hoping to find a family or a foster who can keep them together for the rest of their days. They’re small, sweet, and full of love, and they would make the perfect companions for someone looking to offer a peaceful, nurturing environment in which they can continue to thrive.
Meet the Trio
• Petey (11 years old) – Petey is a gentle, loyal boy who enjoys the simple pleasures of life—like a nice walk or cuddling with his best friends. He’s affectionate and easygoing, with a calm demeanor that makes him a pleasure to be around.
• Sweetie (12 years old) – True to her name, Sweetie is a kind, loving girl who thrives on companionship. She enjoys spending time with her friends, Petey and Honey Bee, and is a comforting presence in any room.
• Honey Bee (10 years old) – Honey Bee is a gentle soul with a heart full of love. She’s a little cuddle bug who enjoys being with her pack and would be happy spending her days resting in a warm lap or enjoying a relaxing walk.
These three love each other deeply and are inseparable. They enjoy walking together on a leash, and they are always happy when they’re in each other’s company. Although they’ve faced some hardship, their loyalty and loving nature are still very much intact.

More about this shelter

Faithful Friends was founded in 2000, as Citizens for the Protection and Care of Animals, by a group of local animal lovers who believe there is a better way to address the problem of pet homelessness than mass euthanasia.

Currently, about 25,000 pets become homeless in Delaware and over 15,000 are destroyed in Delaware's publicly funded shelters. The vast majority of these pets are destroyed because there are no homes for them immediately available. And these numbers do not take into account the thousands of homeless cats that huddle near dumpsters, living in fear.

Pet overpopulation and homelessness is a community problem, not a shelter problem. It takes a unified effort within the community to solve the problem and to do so in a humane, effective manner. We hope you will join this effort!

Our Mission
Ending the routine killing of dogs and cats through rescue and adoption of homeless pets, affordable spay/neuter programs that target the neediest pet owners in our community, and outreach programs that prevent pet owner relinquishments.

Our Vision
That Delaware will become a state that cares for and protects animal companions, eliminating abuse, neglect and the routine killing of homeless pets.

Our Goals
Significantly increase adoptions of homeless pets by building a state-of-the-art Adoption Center that provides medical care and a homelike setting where dogs and cats can live free of stress and fear until new homes are found for them.

Provide care options for homeless pets that need more time and training to become adopted or who need lifetime care by creating a Sanctuary in Delaware. Here, animals who are difficult to place in homes because of age, illness or temperament can live out their natural lives in safety.

Create therapeutic programs that bring animals and their gifts of unconditional love, companionship and healing to children and the elderly in residential facilities who suffer from isolation, depression or the effects of abuse or illness.

Reduce overpopulation by providing spay/neuter programs which target the neediest pet owners and feral/stray cats.

Reduce pet relinquishments to shelters by offering support, training and alternatives to owner give-ups.
