Meet Our Pet of the Week!

 

Will You Be Delbert’s Best Friend?!

Helen Woodward Animal Center Pet-of-the-Week

Rancho Santa Fe, Calif. – The handsome Delbert is taking applications for his New Year’s Kiss! This bashful 6-month-old Doberman Pinscher blend is waiting for his pawtner to adopt him to welcome in the new year together! He may be shy at first, but this sweet boy LOVES to be outdoors and run around a big yard chasing balls with his hooman. He is looking for active parents who will take him on long walks and hikes. You will love to bring in 2023 with this gentleman, especially since the pawty doesn’t start until Delbert arrives in style with a big smile!

He’s waiting to meet you at Helen Woodward Animal Center. He has been altered and is up-to-date on all of his vaccinations. As with all pets adopted from Helen Woodward Animal Center, he is microchipped for identification.

Kitten BOGO
Did you know that adopting two kittens is better than adopting just
one? Young felines flourish when they have another feline friend.

Right now, when you adopt two kitties, we will waive the adoption
fee of the second!

Helen Woodward Animal Center pets come from a variety of sources, such as the transfer of animals from public shelters to relieve overcrowding, working with local dog and cat rescues, as well as owner surrender. Every animal in our pet adoption program has received a medical examination, spay or neuter surgery, vaccinations, tons of TLC and a microchip. Our goal is to adopt our pets into loving and permanent homes. Helen Woodward Animal Center Adoption Counselors are here to help you choose a pet who will be your perfect match for life.
