Delaney and I are having a great time together. She loves to run and play in the back yard - will wear herself out playing and then sleep next to my chair. Thank you for such a wonderful friend.

Delaney was a 10 month old, spayed, black/tan, female German Shepherd Dog. Delaney had been left without medical care and tied to trees virtually her entire short life. She had heavy scarring on her neck from wearing a collar that was too small and being tied out. You should have seen her and her sister in the dog kennel. They were soooooo happy to romp and play with each other. We are sure it was hard to play when they were tethered to trees out of reach from each other. Delaney was very sweet and had an outstanding temperament. She had been good with kids, small dogs, and large dogs. She was curious about the cats, but just seemed interested. She was a little beauty queen.
