🎶Hey There, Delilah—You’re Finally Home Tonight🎶6-years after being adopted, Delilah returned to the shelter with multiple masses.

The Bay Area may not boast New England’s fall colors but, we’ve got Maple, the sweetest sign of autumn in the Bay!

He needs some extra TLC (a few medical needs), but his spirit glows bright, & is proof that “old & Rusty” means golden and treasured.

Mission: Tango Secured. His path hasn’t been a straight march—medical briefings, training drills, foster rotations, & false alarms but Tango has been cleared for companionship—& now, he’s united with his commander-in-chief. Mission complete: adopted & set for adventure. We salute this ideal duo!
