My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Delilah! A sweet 90lb, 9-year-old, Newfoundland with the softest eyes, the sweetest heart, and a story that will melt anyone who meets her. She was found in a snowbank on the side of the road, unable to stand on her own, cold, exhausted, and in very rough condition. But even then, her gentle spirit shone through. We brought her to the shelter, warmed her up, cleaned her, and gave her the soft, cozy place she had clearly been longing for. At her age, Delilah is a calm, tender soul who wants nothing more than a warm bed, a quiet home, and someone who will love her through the rest of her golden years. She does have arthritis and will continue to need regular pain management, and because her joints can be stiff, she sometimes needs a little help getting up. We are searching for someone special—an adopter or even a foster— who is mostly home and able to provide steady companionship throughout the day. Delilah doesn’t mind other dogs, but she would thrive best in a household without active or high-energy pups. A home with other senior or mellow dogs would be the perfect match for her peaceful nature. We do all adoptions with approved applicants by appointment only. If you are interested in adopting, please contact us via FB Messenger or email us at jcasreception@johnsoncounty.in.gov for an application. You can also find one on our website at http://johnsoncountyanimalshelter.com/adopt/. Once an application is submitted and approved, we can set an appointment to meet the pet!
