History
Delos's mother was dropped off at a pound when she was pregnant, and when the pups were born, they went fast due to the fact they were purebred. Delos went to a small, friendly family, a present to their twelve year old daughter,Hayley. As he grew, Delos grew very protective of Hayley, because he loved her so dearly. When she was thirteen and he was two,Delos was walking around the neighborhood with his human child when he spotted a man who's intentions were less than kind. Of course Hayley did not know this, but Delos could sense it. The man wanted to hurt Hayley.
Delos instantly grew angry and he acted quickly when the man reached for Hayley, lashing out and attacking him. In court, the man claimed that he was simply walking past, and who was there to prove him wrong? Hayley was too young to testify, so Delos was sentenced to be put to sleep the next day. That night, with a heavy heart, Delos left his family to become a stray.
