Delilah must have champagne bubbles streaming through her veins and arteries.. she is that bubbly & effusively joyous! She arrived that way... we didn't have to work any magic to coax Delilah out of her shell!! She burst onto the scene greeting everyone like beloved family members.. she was at home here the moment she set her first paw on the ground.. Her glistening sleek coat with beautiful white makings was all kinds of shimmery housing that wonderfully wiggly body of hers.. Delilah has amazingly bright, clear, soft, light brown eyes.. because her warm heart and kind nature shine through them!
Delilah loves toys like no other! She takes her job as The Head of Toy Destroying Department very seriously and will not allow one un-destroyed plush toy pass by. She'll reach into the toy basket, take each toy out one by one and bring them over to her bed to pull apart. In the yard, Delilah's ultimate fav toy goes to the swirly shaped football. She would if allowed .. chase that thing all day long! She loves fetch, especially with the big rubber orange chuck it ball. AND she WILL bring the ball right back and drop it at your feet. AWWWW! Good girl!
This stunning and yet goofy girl is sweet like she'd been nothing but loved & treasured every day of her young life... and that is all she ever offers .. LOVE and devotion! Delilah is a loyal doggie and will always stick by your side. She absolutely adores going on adventures with her person! Delilah wins our ADELE award for being so organically kind and happy!

December UPDATE: Delilah is fully recovered from surgery on a torn ligament in her knee! Her temporary "home" while she recovered was The LIttle Red House on property that she still resides in.. because its so comfy for her! It is her very own quite space to rest during her down time. When Delilah isn't resting, her handlers are still hard at work making sure she is getting the prescribed walks and physical therapy to strengthen those muscles around her injury. During this post surgery rest period we've learned something we didn't expect about Delilah.. shes loves to be calm and lounge with her friends! Looking at her .. sleek, shiny, super buff and athletic you'd assume, well we assumed.. especially because of the super enthusiastic greeting style she came with that she was a high energy, high exercise doggie.. WELLLLLLLLL... that is a part of her BUT maybe more so she's a dog that craves companionship and simply hasn't had enough of it! So when friends did come to be with her she was explosively happy.. and would do anything to be engaged.. and stay engaged!
Delilah in a Nutshell From Dog Trainer Jamie
Greeting Style
Delilah’s greeting style is bold, friendly and HAPPY as can be! She is bubbling with happiness ... will probably jump, try to lick your face and wiggle big time in celebration to have you love on her. We believe Delilah could do well in a home with children provided her new owners continue to help her learn appropriate ways to greet the kiddos. She will be so excited to see them, she may jump on young children which might result in a whoops situation!
Greeting other dogs
Delilah does really well out and about when meeting other dogs on a nice, loose leash. She will give them a quick under-the-chin lick and go right to the butt for a sniff.
Dog-Dog play style
She has nice skills in greeting rituals with dogs while on leash but has a tendency to overwhelm other dogs with her boisterous play style. She is not a dog park dog and will likely over do it with your average neighborhood yellow lab. Delilah does have a few friends here and we always make sure to have two handlers in on the playgroup to keep things from getting too wild. That can be a moment when the other dog might misinterpret Delilahs "enthusiasm" for aggression. We don't permit energy levels to exceed a certain point. Its also important she be put into chill out breaks! She doesn't know to do so on her own!The girl has boundless energy!!!

A walk with Delilah
Delilah does have a good amount of obedience training under her belt. She will stay on a loose leash in heel when engaged with, she goes to a sit automatically when you stop, she will look when asked and she will lay down on command. DELILAH LOVES people so much she does get very wound up with excitement when a new person approaches. She sort of forgets she's on a leash in those thrilling outbursts and lurch suddenly forward.. if you don't redirect that exuberant energy ahead of time, you’ll have to reel her back in, get her focused, reconnect with you and then continue the walk. Delilah is a joyously strong girl so we absolutely insist no children hold the leash when on a walk.
