My story

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

Meet Bailey — Your Future Best Friend, Cuddle Coach, and Professional Tennis Ball Inspector!

If you’re looking for a dog who will make you laugh, love and stayed amazed, Bailey is your girl! She’s the perfect blend of playful goofball and snuggle champion.  This brilliant, affectionate beauty was abandoned through no fault of her own, and she’s now winning hearts at our shelter every single day.

Bailey LOVES people — big people, small people, loud people, quiet people — if you’re a person, she already thinks you’re amazing. Kids? Even better. She’ll happily join in on backyard games, supervise coloring time, or politely request belly rubs as payment for being adorable.

Her favorite hobby? Tennis balls. She believes they are precious artifacts worthy of chasing, carrying, and showing off with great pride. She may or may not think she’s training for Wimbledon.

When she’s not practicing her athleticism, she’s ready to snuggle right up against you, convinced she’s a lap dog—even if your lap disagrees. She’s smart, too: quick to learn, eager to please, and always paying attention (unless she spots a tennis ball, then… priorities).

Because Bailey is such a superstar, she prefers to be the only pet in the home so she can devote herself entirely to loving you, and so she doesn’t have to share her tennis ball collection. She promises she’s more than enough dog for any family.

Bailey’s dream home:

• She must be your  one and only pet .

• A  fenced-in yard  would make her happiest.

• She’d thrive in a  quiet neighborhood or rural home  where she doesn’t have to pass close to other dogs.

• Bailey is fully trained—she knows  sit, down, and stay —and she’s eager to keep learning with her new family.

If you want a loyal companion who is smart, silly, loving, and ready to be your very best friend, come meet Bailey. She’s been waiting for someone to see just how special she is.

Bailey is ready. Are you?

Come fall in love today.

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.
