Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.   *This is a courtesy posting. Harlan is not at DPR, but his current owner asked us to help find him a great home!* Meet Harlan – A Sweet, Spirited Hound Looking for His Perfect Home Harlan is a 3-year-old hound mix with a heart as big as his nose! His Wisdom Panel DNA results reveal a rich hound heritage—53% American Foxhound, 26% Plott Hound, 19% Treeing Walker Coonhound, and a touch of Bluetick Coonhound—so it’s no surprise that he has a strong prey drive and a passion for following scents wherever they lead. Originally rescued after being abandoned on the side of the road, Harlan has blossomed into a loving, energetic companion. He adores being outdoors and lives for long walks, sniffing adventures, and any opportunity to use his hound instincts. He’s happiest when he has a job to do or space to roam, making him a great fit for an active household with land, a secure yard, or even a family who enjoys hunting or has experience with working breeds. Harlan is:  Up to date on all vaccinations  Neutered  Paperwork in hand  House-trained and eager to please  Best suited for someone experienced with strong, active dogs While Harlan is deeply affectionate and eager for companionship, he’s not the best fit for homes without secure fencing or those with limited mobility. His enthusiasm for tracking means he can be a strong puller on walks—even with training tools—and needs someone who can manage his strength and give him the stimulation he craves. We love Harlan dearly, but due to serious health challenges in our family and the lack of a secure yard, we know we’re no longer the right home for him. Our greatest hope is to find someone who sees his potential and can give him the life he deserves: safe, stimulating, and full of love.  If you have room in your home—and heart—for a smart, loving hound ready for his next adventure, please reach out. We’re happy to share more about his personality and history. Helping Harlan find his forever home would mean the world to us.  If you are interested in adopting, pleas fill out a 'Dog Adoption Application'   at   www.DelawarePetRescue.org/forms    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 9, 2026, 11:30 am

Story
Sandy is a 2-year-old soulful hound mix with the most irresistible “will you rub me?” eyes you’ve ever seen. She currently weighs about 45 pounds and is underweight — she should be closer to 50 pounds to be at a healthy weight. She’s on her journey to filling out and feeling her very best, and she’ll need a family committed to continuing her nutrition and care so she can fully thrive.What Sandy lacks in pounds, she more than makes up for in love. She is incredibly affectionate and absolutely adores cuddling. If you sit down, she’s right there. If you’re on the couch, she’s ready to share it. She soaks up attention like sunshine and bonds deeply with her people.Sandy gets along great with other dogs, is crate trained, and walks nicely on a leash. She truly thrives around other dogs and would do best in a home with a canine companion who wants a buddy to play and cuddle with. She’s gentle, sweet-natured, and just wants to be close to her humans.She absolutely loves zoomies in the yard and, being a typical hound, will happily follow her nose — so she will require a securely fenced yard with a 6-foot fence that is reinforced at the bottom to keep her safe while she explores.Sandy has been through so much in her life and is looking for a patient, loving home that will give her the time she needs to settle in, feel safe, and truly blossom. Once she does, you’ll have the most loyal, loving companion by your side.If you’re looking for a sweet, snuggly shadow who will fill your home with love, Sandy is ready to steal your heart — and yes, your couch too.

Story
This friend has just arrived to us on transport from a high-intake shelter partner! When our friends are new to us, we are often unsure of their full background. Our staff will spend some time getting to know them and update their bio with more information as we learn. They are pending interactions with animals until they have been cleared by our vet. Please note that we often are unsure of house, crate, car, and leash training status upon arrival. 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.
