Let's Make Snow Angels Together!

It's a SNOW DAY at the Philadelphia animal control shelter (ACCT)!!!! These babies would LOVE to come home and make snow angels with you, so come to the shelter ASAP!!! If you're interested in fostering or adopting any of these dogs, come to the ACCT shelter at 111 W. Hunting Park Avenue in Philadelphia. They're open 7 days a week! For more information, contact Natalie (nsmith@pspca.org) or Jill (jsweeney@pspca.org).

CARL is a beautiful boy looking for a new home. He is a Pit/Terrier mix, about 6-12 months old. He was brought in as a stray in mid-October. Carl is very soft but don’t let that fool you -- he has a ton of energy and is ready to play! He loves to play with other dogs, too. Carl is a love bug and with the right home will do well.

TIGGER is a 1-2 year old American Bulldog/Pit mix. He was surrendered to ACCT because his owner said "he escapes when he is shut out in the yard all by himself." Tigger is best as a one and only pet. He gives sticky, slobbery kisses and likes to put his drooly cheeks on your lap whenever possible! Tigger is like a canine locomotive on a leash, so he needs someone to teach him the proper way to walk. Tigger is a typical wiggle-butt and is very friendly with all of the people he meets. He has no resource guarding issues and is great with body handling.

KEV is a really cute and wiggly 9-12 month old male Pit mix. He is good with all types of body handling. In fact, he loves being tickled and runs around like a goof if he thinks you want to play! Kev could stand to use an owner who has experience with high-energy training. Until Kev has passed his training lessons it is recommended that he go to a home with no small children. Kev seems to like other dogs. Note: Since Kev has been waiting so long for his new home, his adopter will receive FREE dog training (donated by Sniffles & Friends).

JADA is a gorgeous caramel-colored female Pit mix, about 1-2 years old. She's already spayed! Poor Jada was found as a stray and is skinny and on treatment for kennel cough. She desperately needs some TLC! Gorgeous Jada is tall and lanky with an elegant long nose and beautiful soft eyes. She is such a sweet, loving dog who loves to lay at your feet and will make someone very happy. Jada is great with body handling and she especially loves giving/receiving kisses! If you give Jada any "baby talk," she gets so wiggly and happy that her whole body swishes from side to side.

DEBA needs someone to love her ASAP! This little Pittie girl (about 3-5 years old) came to ACCT because her owner was arrested for drugs and Deba was living in an abandoned property in unsanitary conditions. After this sad start to life, Deba deserves to live in a home filled with love. Deba had to have an emergency spay and is now trying to recover in the loud, stressful shelter. She is at high risk of getting sick post-operation, so she needs to leave ASAP or will be at risk of euthanasia! She is a smart, food-motivated girl that aims to please and is ok with other dogs. Deba can be shy but she's friendly and affectionate and will make a loving companion.NOTE: Since Deba has been waiting so long for her new home, her adopter will receive FREE dog training (donated by Sniffles & Friends).

BULL is a gentle, light chocolate brindle male Lab/Pit mix. He's about-5 years old and came to ACCT as a stray. Bull has adoring eyes and a very sweet sprit. He's calm, walks well on a leash, and is great with body handling. This big guy is a snuggle-bunny who has seen some hard times. He has some old wounds on his ears and neck, but Bull has done very well with dog introductions and really enjoys the company of people. Someone is really missing out on this dog!

SEALLER is an adult Pit/Mastiff mix who came to the shelter as a stray . Sealler is a big boy (with gigantic feet!) but he's calm, cool, and collected. He enjoys being pet and hugged. Sealler is excellent with body handling and would love to go to a forever home.

MARIO is a chocolaty, doe-eyed Pit mix who needs to get out of the shelter ASAP! Mario came in as a stray in July 2009 and has yet to find a foster home. He is about 1-2 years old and is a bundle of energy. Mario would thrive in a home that is active and understanding. He needs some work on leash walking, but he is eager to please and very food motivated. Mario would be happiest being the one and only pet in your home, but could live with a submissive female with proper introductions. NOTE: Since Mario has been waiting so long for his new home, his adopter will receive FREE dog training (donated by Sniffles & Friends).
