Delaware Humane Association

Founded in 1957, Delaware Humane Association (DHA) is a nonprofit no kill animal shelter and adoption center serving a four state area. We make "friends for life" by connecting people with animals, and by building strong relationships to better serve our community. We envision a day when every animal is loved, has a home, and has a "friend for life." At DHA, we make "friends for life" by: * Matching the right people with the right animals * Offering a friendly, welcoming environment * Empowering others to care for animals * Being kind, caring and compassionate Each year, hundreds of animals come to DHA in search of a warm bed, good meal, and most importantly, a new home. Our dedicated staff and volunteers work hard to ensure that each animal receives the best care possible during his/her stay at our adoption shelter. We're committed to preparing all adoptable dogs and cats for a new home by keeping them well-groomed, giving them daily exercise and affection, and providing obedience training and any necessary medical care. DHA serves the community by offering affordable spay/neuter services, low cost vaccination clinics, and a pet food pantry. We receive no government funding, and rely on the support of the community in the form of volunteers, private donations, bequests, grants, fundraising events, and our Guardian Angel Program to complete our mission.
