Meet the Smithtown Animal Shelter’s Pets of the Week, Samson and Delilah!
Samson is an eight year-old Male Boxer Pit Mix, while Delilah is a ten year-old Female Pit Mix. These two loves were found abandoned in a park after their previous owner sadly passed away. Samson and Delilah absolutely adore each other, and we would love for them to find a furrever home together, but they can be separated if need be. Both of these mushes love people, and are very friendly and gentle. Delilah has chronic dry eye and skin allergies, and will require a home that can properly manage this. She has a dominant personality, and does not accept other dogs, with the exception of Samson who she gets along well with. Samson and Delilah deserve a wonderful home that they can share their love with forever and ever.
If you are interested in meeting Samson and Delilah, please call ahead to schedule an hour to properly interact with them in a domestic setting, which includes our Meet and Greet Room, the dog runs, and our Dog Walk trail.
Additional Foster Opportunity:
If you have no other pets or young children at home, and are looking for a way to serve your community, please consider signing up to be a foster. Foster parents provide temporary care for cats, kittens, and dogs in their own homes. Some animals need as little as two weeks of care, while others may need care for extended periods of time.

Thinking About Adoption:
The Smithtown Animal Shelter’s primary concern is finding the perfect home for each animal that finds his/her way to us. The Animal Control Officers and Kennel Attendants at the Smithtown Animal Shelter will go out of their way to ensure both the rescued and rescuer are made for one another.
Residents who have other pets can arrange to bring your four-legged family member to the shelter or set up an at home meet & greet to see how your prospective family member does with other family, pets and the household itself. Please allow yourself an hour minimum to meet with your potential new family member.
Hours at the Smithtown Animal Shelter are currently Monday - Saturday 10AM - 3PM. (Sundays and Wednesday evenings: by appointment only).
The Smithtown Animal Shelter must continue to practice social distancing, safety guidance and indoor mask guidelines to best protect the animals and staff. While we are open to the public, we ask that you call ahead to schedule an appointment.
