“Treating customers (people & pets) as family!”

 

WSTW loves pets! That’s why we’ve partnered with Humane Animal Partners (formerly Delaware Humane Association and Delaware SPCA) to bring you our Pets of the Week. Each week, we’ll show you a cat and a dog from Humane Animal Partners who need good homes. SPECIAL PROMOTION: All adoption fees are $25 through August 31st! 

Dog of the Week

Mercy was adopted as a puppy and spent the beginning of his life in a loving home. In 2021, his home and family were devastated when they tragically lost everything to hurricane Ida. His family took every effort to rebuild, but ultimately thought Mercy deserved more. They made the heartbreaking decision to surrender him, in hopes he could have a fresh start.

Despite still being overcrowded by animals as a result of Ida, our friends at Lafourche Parish Animal Shelter in Louisiana kept their doors open to save as many animals as they could. Mercy was eventually brought to all the way to us here in Delaware by trusted transport partners.

Since arriving to HAP, Mercy has been a happy-go-lucky boy that loves everyone he meets! At just over 2 years old, he already knows basic commands, appears house-trained, and walks well with a harness. Despite all he has been through, he has managed to keep his lively spirits up and enjoys spending his days tossing around toys with friends. Mercy has a lot of energy and would do best in a home that can match his go-go personality!

Just like the candy, this boy is sweet as can be! Rolo is a 1 year old terrier mix that gives the best hugs! He came to HAP from a high-intake shelter in West Virginia when they no longer had space for him. He is a total bundle of joy and loves hanging out with his friends. Rolo has done well with other pups, but he can get really excited to play so a pup that can keep up would be perfect! When he's not walking with his pals, you can usually find him curled up in his kennel giving us all those sweet puppy dog eyes. Rolo keeps his kennel clean, knows basic commands, and walks well on a leash. He is food-motivated to learn and already knows 'sit', 'down', 'paw', and 'stay'.

Talk about a sweet senior! Our affectionate girl Eclipse is an 11 year old beauty. She came to HAP from a local shelter when they no longer had space for her. Eclipse has been quite the talk of our medical team, as she quickly fell in love with our veterinarian, Dr. Green! She enjoys being held, cuddling on a cozy bed, and being brushed. When she's not soaking up some snuggles, you can usually find her exploring our playroom. She has done well with other kitties, especially her senior pals. She is a golden senior who deserves nothing more than to spend her final years in a home. While senior cats sometimes are overlooked, we can't understand how no one has fallen for her yet!

Eclipse - 11 years old, 11 lbs. Currently available at HAP Wilmington

This handsome man is a 3 year old Great Dane mix. Link originally came to us from a high-intake shelter partner in Georgia. Sadly he's been in and out of a couple of homes that weren't the right fit, but Link isn't giving up on finding a loving family to call his own! This gentle giant loves running outside and getting back scratches. Link longs for your attention and would prefer to be the only dog in your home...the apple of your eye! Link has a whole lot of love to give and would make a wonderful addition to the right family.

LINK – 3 years old, 76 lbs. Currently available for adoption at HAP Stanton/Christiana

The cheeks, the eyes, we can't get enough of our stunning boy, Martin! He is a 9 year old black kitty that came to HAP after his owners were no longer able to care for him. After a quick adjustment period, he's gotten entirely comfortable hanging out with us and asking for love. Martin loves people and he loves to follow them around, almost as much as he loves snuggling with someone on their lap! He has done well with other kitties here at the shelter too. He isn't much for playing, he's an older gentleman, after all!

**Martin is on a urinary prescription diet that will need to be continued in a home! Our cattery team will go over his urinary issues with you prior to adoption!

ADOPTION PROCESS

Our adoption process is designed to help you and your family find the perfect match in a pet. When the right match is made, we strive to conduct our adoptions thoughtfully, transparently, and with the utmost respect. HAP asks those interested in adopting to please submit an adoption questionnaire at //www.humaneanimalpartners.org/adopt/adoption-process/  prior to visiting! All animals from HAP are spayed/neutered, given age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and examined by a vet prior to adoption.
