A Very Tough Letter To Write
September, 2019 In memory of our iconic Hercules, here in his prime. He died peacefully in his sleep a week ago. Dear Partner, This is one very tough letter to write. It’s like another chapter in my life has just come to an end. This is the “Hercules chapter” that began ten years ago . […]
D.E.L.T.A. Rescue Encourages People To Make A Difference
This is more than just another rescue center, it is a sanctuary — for the little angels who would have suffered and died without our help. Here it’s a lifetime of care, not just a quick “in-and-out again” rescue. Our animals are our children, and all our sacrifices are for them. Please remember this as […]
The True Meaning Of “Care For Life”
Two beautiful dogs who had a terrible beginning, but are enjoying a wonderful life. This is Lucas, he is now 9 years old. When he was barely a year old he was struggling to survive in the deep dessert. . . which reaches over 120˚F in the summer. Lucas would not be here today if […]
Parmesan and his siblings were safely born at our hospital six weeks ago!
Whenever we have a litter of puppies or kittens born at our hospital, I let the staff come up with suggestions for naming the entire new family after a group of some kind. Usually it is a cast of movie or TV show characters. Sometimes states or flowers, etc. My being Italian, I think they […]

Our 40th Anniversary
Over the decades I’ve torn into anything old and hidden to look for a picture of my Delta. Just one picture. It was not to be. Then last year I found an old jewelry box that I had when I was a kid. In it was a tie clip in the shape of a sword […]
What happens when your beloved animal angels die? Is Rainbow Bridge real?
What happens when you meet again at Rainbow Bridge? Miriam Bostwick’s book Animal News From Heaven reads like an autobiographical history, and the sheer volume of animal and human stories is very entertaining and ultimately leaves us with a sense of hope no matter what our religion. Are our animals waiting for us in the afterlife […]
40 Years & Home To Thousands Of Unwanted Abandoned Animals
Our first tiny “shelter” was an old kennel in El Monte, California. Our dogs lived in 4×10 foot “runs” and got out for exercise twice a day. Not ideal, but better than starving to death in the forest. Since nobody wanted to adopt these “damaged” dogs, we treated them all as our own pets. […]
