Story
ABOUT TINI Little Miss Tini is ready for her forever home! Tini came to HAP from a high-intake shelter in Georgia when they no longer had space for her. She is definitely still getting used to this colder Delaware weather! Thankfully, Tini loves to get bundled up in her sweater or jacket and head out to explore the world. Tini is quite the brave little girl as she's always up for meeting new friends - both human and canine alike! She can be a little overwhelmed when meeting new dogs but may do well with another dog with a slow introduction. Besides going out on walks and making new friends, one of Tini's favorite things to do is to hop up and make herself at home on your lap! This girl definitely needs a good snuggle buddy in her life - even better if there's belly rubs involved! We've also learned that Tini loves her toys and sometimes will try to take them out and about with her. Though she does forget about them pretty quickly but we always tell her it's the thought that counts! So what do you say? Are you ready for a HAPpily ever after with Miss Tini? Stop by today and come say hey to Tini! If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.

Story
Dog Name: Sugar Breed: Chi mix Sex: Female Age: 3 years Weight: 15 lbs. Medical Needs: None Housebroken: Yes Crate trained: Yes Good in the car: a little nervous, but settles. In crate, or in your lap. Went on a 7 hour road trip and did just fine! Good on a leash: Yes! She loves walks and is well behaved on a leash. Energy level: Medium, but also chills readily. Need a fenced in yard: No, but she did readily use a 10'x25' fenced in area to potty and show off her ferocious guard dog skills. Dog Friendly: Yes, loves other dogs, and has been good with dog savvy cats. If yes, does your foster need another dog in its adoptive homes? No Cat Friendly? Yes Kid Friendly: Yes, with supervision and gentle introduction. If yes, what's the youngest child you'd recommend they be? She will not be placed in a home with children under age 16. Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know about them? Sugar is smart! She comes when called, knows "stay", "no" and is working on "sit". She loves to go for walks and to play, but she also will be content to just hang out and relax. She is a little hesitant when meeting new people, but warms up quickly with a calm introduction.

Story
Dog Name: Janel **** pics that are included show her enclosure. Please read entire post and look at pics. ********) Breed: chihuahua Sex: f Age: 7-8 Weight: 7 lbs Medical Needs: none Housebroken: Before coming to the rescue, she was potty pad trained. That is still where we are. She was so shut down when she arrived that I have not forced a leash on her. Potty pads is going great. When she is in her crate, she does not have accidents and will wait for a pee pad to be available. Crate trained: yes. She goes in and out of the crate with no issues. Good in Car: the car ride to the foster was fine. In a crate. There have been no further trips anywhere thus far. Good on leash: No. She has had little human contact before coming to the rescue. She is terrified of everything. Double leash recommended for escape purposes. Energy Level: off. Need a fenced in yard: unsure. Once she gets comfortable somewhere she may be able to be out in a yard. But we are not there yet. Not recommended that she be off a leash in a yard bc she will run from you. Dog friendly: yes. She has tolerance for larger animals. Animals comparable to her size, not so much. She has not been friendly with current fosters resident dog. (Her size) Cat friendly: Unknown Kid friendly: NO LITTLE KIDS. She has survived a lot of neglect. Little kids are not recommended as she is scared. While she has not been exhibiting aggression, we are not willing to take a chance of her fear getting out of control. Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know about them? Janel was not given human contact at her last home. She was over bred and under loved. She has found her way to her current foster home. While thats great, she has been very leary of all humans. She had a shut down period that was much needed. Since arriving, she has been able to free feed with plenty of water. She is in an enclosure with her crate inside so she can feel secure. (See photo for understanding) She now will come in and out of her crate. She will retreat to the crate when she is scared. She has begun to take treats out of her fosters hand. She has been handled now, with care, but she doesn't like it. She isn't mean or aggressive but would rather be left alone. She is slowly coming to accept her force snuggles. Recently, she also barked when breakfast was late. This was a big deal! She is making small slow steps towards trusting her foster family. Its quiet there so she has been able to see that only gentle touches happen and there is always plenty of food. She does have a good appetite and loves her chew bones. She is older and sleeps a lot during the day. She has been fine with both men and women and teenagers. She has no medical problems we know of and is already fixed. HER PERFECT FAMILY: we are looking for a quiet household with lots of patience. Someone who will allow her to come out of her shell on her own. It will take a while and she is very sweet, but very scared. When you live your whole life in distrust, this is the result. We need a very special person to love her at her pace.

Story
Mariah is about 9 years old. She is very loving. She absolutely loves kids! She is great with other animals. She very protective, so when someone comes in unknown she will bark and let you know. She does use puppy pads inside the house at night. She will tell you most of the time to use the bathroom outside. I need to fund her a new home because I am currently living in a motel and we are about to move to a place with no animals allowed unfortunately. She is an amazing little dog and we love her so much. Looking for a good home for her.

Story
Hi everyone, I would like to introduce Pelucho/ Teddy. Teddy belonged to my mother before she unfortunately passed away in September of 2025. Suddenly I find myself caring for 3 dogs and a cat in a very small apartment without the means to really care for him, I would love to keep him but I’m broke and desperate to find him a loving home. He is great with all my pets and kids as well he does suffer from a bit of separation anxiety and requires a little bit of patience but he is a lovely dog. Please help
