About Delta

Delta wins people over with his gentle temperament and polished manners. He walks nicely on leash and responds to a handful of commands, though sometimes his curiosity gets the best of him and he can lose focus. Delta really enjoys romping with other dogs, but he’s no friend to cats and tends to chase them, so a home without felines is best. After being passed over several times, this four-year-old needs stability and someone committed for the long haul. He celebrated his fourth birthday on July 11, and as a Cancer, he naturally values security and deep bonds. Delta is ready for a family who won’t let him down—he’s prepared to give loyalty in return.
