Meet Delta!
Golden Aussie Pit mix | 9 Years Old | Toledo
Delta, also known as Deli and Smelly Deli, is a total cuddle bug with a playful, silly, and sweet personality. She loves being right next to her people, the kind of dog that always cuddles in a little closer each time, instantly melting your heart. She could play all day, especially if there’s snow, a ball to chase, or something to dig (moles beware!). Toss a ball into a kiddie pool and she’ll go all in, full face underwater, determined to get it every time. But what makes Delta special is how she shows up when it matters. When her owner is having a tough day, Delta brings her toy over, her sweet way of helping get her mind off things. She came into their lives exactly as she was meant to. Out of a litter of seven puppies, Delta was the only girl, exactly what her family was hoping for. “One moment I’ll never forget was when I was fully under the blankets and she couldn’t find me. She jumped on the bed and started power digging to unbury me and save my life of course 😂” She wasn’t giving up until she knew her owner was safe. That’s just who she is. 🧡
We don’t just love clean yards, we love dogs.
That’s why our Dog of the Month program is about more than recognition. It’s about purpose.
Each year, we create our “Backyard Legends” Calendar, featuring 12 incredible pups who bring joy to our routes and the families who love them.
100% of profits are donated to a nonprofit dog rescue organization that helps animals in distress, funds critical medical treatment, and gives dogs a second chance at a safe, happy life.
Because while we care for some of the happiest dogs around… there are others still waiting.

Major
Major is playful, sweet, and a world class snuggler. He greets you with full body wiggles and firmly believes the recliner belongs to him too. He’s also a little bougie, regular kibble won’t do. And when it comes to chasing a ball, he goes all in… even if it means limping for a few days. Worth it, every time. Major came into their lives like a sign. His photo kept appearing in a local Facebook group, and after the fourth time, they knew. The previous owner lived on the same street and walked him down to meet them. They fell in love instantly. “One moment we’ll never forget was when our youngest, who has Down syndrome, was about one year old and loved playing tug of war with Major. Somehow, Major knew he was tiny. He pulled gently, just enough to make him giggle, but gave it everything he had with the rest of us." He knew the difference.
