165 At-Risk Dogs Airlifted From Arizona to Delaware

With local shelters overcrowded in the Southwest, these dogs will be medically evaluated, prepared for adoption.

Nearly 200 at-risk dogs just arrived in Delaware in need of a loving home. The dogs were airlifted from an overcrowded shelter in Phoenix, Arizona, to New Castle. The Brandywine Valley SPCA will hold its Mega Adoption event next weekend at the Delaware State Fairgrounds.

More than 100 rescued dogs will call the greater Delaware area home after they were flown in on an airplane from Arizona.

The plane carrying 165 pups touched ground at the Wilmington Newcastle Airport Saturday ahead of a two-day adoption event, which will take place Dec. 8 and 9.

More than 1,000 animals will be up for adoption at the Delaware State Fairgrounds in Harrington, Delaware.

Airlifted from Phoenix, these at-risk pups will be part of the Brandywine Valley Second Chance Program's Mega Adoption Event.
