List of "URGENT" Dogs: December 14, 2009

Hellooooooooo, Philadelphia (and beyond!)!!! This is the list of "URGENT" dogs at ACCT, Philadelphia's city animal shelter. This is the place where all the stray or unwanted dogs go. For every dog that comes in, another one must go out. Without people to foster or adopt them, we know what that translates to.

ALL OF THESE PUPS ARE AT RISK OF BEING KILLED.

Did you know that the people of Philadelphia surrender or abandon more dogs and cats per capita than any of the 50 largest cities in the United States? Did you know that Philadelphia has the lowest animal control budget per capita of any of the 50 largest US cities?

Bottom line: these animals need you NOW!

To foster or adopt, come to 111 W. Hunting Park in Philadelphia. They're open 7 days a week. For more information on any of these wonderful dogs, please contact Natalie (nsmith@pspca.org) or Jill (jsweeney@pspca.org).

See you at the shelter!!!!!!

Hayden - URGENT

Hayden (09270440) is a very emaciated (only currently 40 lb! Should be more like 100!) female hound/mastiff mix. Her fur feels like velvet and all she wants to do is be held.

Midnight (A09167742) is a handsome male Black Lab 5-7 years old who came into the shelter as a stray. He has a turkey gobbler neck but could use to gain some weight and muscle mass in the hind end.

Midnight likes other calm dogs, but doesn’t like being jumped all over by rowdy dogs.

Dessy- URGENT

Dessy is a dog in foster care but that needs rescue help NOW! Please use your rescue connections to help find this SPECIAL NEEDS dog a good home! Dessy came into the ACCT shelter as a stray and we really thought that she would die that night. Her body temperature was 94 degrees, she was emaciated and not doing well. Now she is anamazing happy, healthy girl. A few days into Dessy finally getting up and around on her own, we discovered that she was completely unresponsive to us, after much banging around of pans, and making obnoxious noises, we discovered that Dessy was deaf. We’ve began teaching her hand signals and laser pointers. She is a very smart girl and catches on quickly. She is good with most other dogs and is very, very playful. She likes to pull around people on skateboards while chasing a ball, she is great at fetch, and can decapitate a stuffed animal in less than 30 seconds! Dessy loves to swim and play in water! She is a high energy girl that loves walks and lots of play time. Dessy is great in the car and enjoys sticking her head out the window. She is a great snuggler and can easily entertain herself with toys. Dessy is already spayed and microchipped and is ready to be adopted into a wonderful, understanding home. Dess is learning hand signals. She is about 1-2 years old and is crate trained and house broken. Photos at:

Kev- URGENT

My name is Kev (A07740386), I have been in the shelter for 191 days. I came here as a stray on May 30, 2009. I am still waiting for someone to save me. I’ve seen hundreds of dogs come and go. Some leave in vans packed with dogs and cats that are off to find forever homes with rescue groups. Sometimes people that I recognize come in and take dogs and return in a few weeks with success stories of finding homes for their foster dogs. I’ve seen other dogs leave right from the shelter to families with excited children that are already fighting about whose bed their new four legged family member will sleep in. But I’m still here. I’m a good boy. I’m high-spirited and goofy. I’m energetic and playful. I am good with all types of body handling and being pinched and poked- in fact, he loves being tickled and runs around like a goof if he thinks you want to play! I like to chase toys, take nice walks and snuggling always makes me feel good. It seems that all the good things about me are also the things that have prevented me from finding a home, but I would try really hard if someone would just take the time to teach me to be better with my manners. When I came to the shelter I was just a pup, now I’m in my teenage years and I really hope I don’t grow old here. Or worse. Even though hundreds have passed me by, I have never lost my love for people. I am hopeful. Photos at:

Jade URGENT

Jade (A09168704) is a pretty black and white female Pit-Terrier mix that has had a horrible start to life! This one year old sweetie has seen some rough times and things need to get better for her! Jade came to ACCT as a stray with a very deep wound from and embedded collar. Her neck is healing, but her sprit is damaged from being here so long. Once Jade has time to run around and let off some steam, she becomes a big floppy love bug that is affectionate and delightful. Jade has no resource guarding issues, and isn’t thrilled with other dogs but could probably live with a submissive dog with a proper introduction. Jade is being treated for her injured neck and kennel cough and needs to leave ASAP. Please save this sad girl! Photos at:

Tito

Tito (A09025634) is a really cute already neutered 6-12 month old Hound-Pit mix that was picked up as a stray.

Tito seems to like other dogs but is not a fan of cats. If you are looking for a cuddly, happy pup to keep you company and be a play buddy, come meet Tito! Photos at:

Mario!

Chocolaty, doe eyed Mario (A08022787) needs to get out of the shelter ASAP! Mario came in as a stray in July 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. Photos at:

Coolio

Coolio (A08194584) is a stunning largely white terrier with green (!) eyes, between 1-2 years old that was brought in as a stray. He is an independent boy who is not very needy. He likes some affection but also like to explore his environment. He needs some basic leash training as the pulls a little, but is friendly and has been evaluated as very adoptable. Coolio turns heads and we hope he will do so with you on long walks in the park, or in your neighborhood?! Coolio has not been evaluated with cats, but is fine with most other dogs. Photos at:

Gabby

Gabby (A08221835) is a young brindle girl of about 1 year, who already had some babies but is now spayed and ready to go! She came to the shelter as a stray and seems over stimulated in this loud place. She loves going for a walk, but needs some leash training. Gabby is curious and of medium to high energy, although after some walking she settles down. She should not go to a home with small dogs, cats, or small children as she can be an active girl, with a prey drive for small animals. She has shown no food aggression or any other aggression, and is great with being handled. Please gives this girl a chance at having a normal life, with some stability, treats, walks and love!

Miz- URGENT

Miz (A07723129) is a strikingly handsome 9-12 month old light brindle male Pit mix. Poor Miz came into the shelter in May as a stray and still hasn’t gained all the weight he needs to because he’s in a stressful kennel environment! Miz is a playful, athletic, rambunctious boy who desperately needs a home where he can release all his energy and channel it into positive learning. After just a few minutes out of his confining kennel MIz is a different dog and justa few minutes of playing calms him down tremendously. Miz is a smart dog that since arriving at the shelter has already learned “Sit”. He is very handsome with his golden eyes and will steal your heart! He is unsocialized with other dogs- he desperately wants to play but all he knows how to do is jump on them, so he will not be a dog park dog, but could learn to live with a smart dog that can teach him the way of good dog behavior! Help this long term resident today! Photos at:

Tigger

LOOK AT THIS FACE!!!

Tigger (08912206) is a 1-2 year old American Bulldog/Pit mix. He was surrendered to ACCT because he escapes when he is shut out in the yard all by himself. Tigger is best as a one and only pet and he won't disappoint, he gives sticky, slobber kisses and likes to put his drooly cheeks on your lap whenever possible. This guy is like a canine locomotive on a leash and needs someone to teach him the proper way a good boy should 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.

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 and he will need some leash training. Carl is a love bug and with the right home will do well.

Brandy

Brandy is a 6 month old pit mix puppy. She doesn’t have manners with other dogs so she would do best with a home with another dog so she properly learns how to interact with dogs. She was brought into the shelter as a stray. Come give Brandy the home she deserves.

Stiller

Stiller (A09024266) is an awesome 2 year old American Pit Bull Terrier mix who recently had a litter of puppies, though we do not know what happened to them. Stiller was picked up as a stray and bares the scars of scuffles with other dogs in the search for food and shelter. She is a really sweet girl and loves to be in your lap. She is underweight as she could not find enough food on the streets but has shown no food aggression. If she is to go to a home with other dogs, Stiller would do best in a home without female dogs and someone with pit bull experience. She is fine with people and children. In fact, Stiller is a total people dog and wants to say hello to everyone! Stiller would love to be your walking partner, ride shotgun and spend all the time in the world with you. Come rescue this sweetie today! Photos at:

Haze (09112586)

Haze came to ACCT as an owner surrender because her owners can no longer afford her. At only about 2 years old, she is a calm girl that enjoys playtime but isn’t overly rambunctious. She knows ‘sit’ and is very friendly with other dogs. She has no resource guarding issues and walks fairly well on a leash. This poor girl is getting sick in the shelter and needs to get out ASAP!

Bull (09038091) Someone is really missing out on this dog! 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 that has seen some hard times. He has some old wounds on his ears and neck but has done very well with dog introductions and really enjoys the company of people. Photos at:

Need a running partner? Well then, Lesa (A09071454) is your girl! She has loads of energy to burn and a running partner would be the best match for her. She could probably run a marathon! Often she gets a case of the zoomies and will barrel into/bounce off of you in the process. Because of this, she should not go to a home with children under 14. Lesa is only 1-2 years old and needs to get a handle on her obedience with her new family. If this sounds like the dog for you, please hurry and come meet this pit bull mix girl today! Photos at:

Cody

Are you an experienced bully owner looking for a softy? Then you may want to stop by and meet Cody (A09063632). Cody is a 1-2 year old American Bulldog mix that had the unfortunate fate of ending up with a family that knew nothing about his breed and surrendered him because he was too active for them. You can’t help but feel sorry for this mushy faced boy when he looks at you with his big brown eyes. With a strong leader, he will blossom into a gentleman of a dog. He knows “sit” and walks pretty well on leash, though this could be because he is a little nervous in the shelter environment. If you know American Bulldogs or bully breeds, this guy is just waiting for you to come pick him up! Photos at:

Tweet

Tweet (A09009247) is a 1-2 year old pit bull mix that was picked up as a stray. It’s obvious she has had a litter in the past, but now she is spayed so it won’t happen again! She’s sweet, friendly and would do well with children. She would be fine with a daily decent length walk or you can even take her on short runs. She is definitely loveable and needs a family that sees her for the sweet girl that she is. If you are looking for a friendly, calmer girl to ad to your family, please stop by and meet Tweet!

House

Are you looking for a friendly, goofy pup? Meet House. House (A09084771) is a 1 year old brindle pit mix. He does best with female dogs and is friendly with people. In fact, he loves to give kisses. House is a little too enthusiastic with his greetings to live with small children. He is a medium energy dog that will need a daily walk to help him burn off some of his energy. He could be a running partner if you want him to! Come meet House before it is too late. Photos at:

Buddy

Looking for a unique looking dog? Check out Buddy! Buddy (A08558821) is a 70 pound 1-2 year old mixed breed that is white caramel spots. His owners said he is part pit bull but there is definitely a lot of something else in there- probably some Bulldog! He’s been looking for a home since late September. He still has a lot of young dog energy and is learning not to jump. Because he is so big and doesn’t understand his own strength, he would do best in a home without small children. His tail is always wagging. Buddy responds to his name and the “sit” command. Come meet this one-of-a-kind boy today! Photos at:

Capone

Have you been searching for a happy-go-lucky, older dog to keep you company? Then you have to come meet Capone (A09047850). His owner had to surrender him due to poor health of the owner. Capone is a 5-7 year old pit bull mix that has lived with children and is good with most female dogs. He is a little too interested in kitties to live with them but hey, so are a lot of other dogs! He is always wiggling, a total wiggle butt, and loves to snuggle. If you are looking for a guard dog, this is not the dog for you. He is more likely to lick someone to death! He’s always walking around with this big goofy grin on his face because he’s so happy to meet people. He will cry if you don’t let him meet someone he wants to greet. He is still working on not jumping and leash manners but he does know “sit” and seems to be housebroken! He has a medium energy level and will need a daily walk to burn some energy and, of course, greet everyone in the neighborhood! Come adopt this great older guy today! Photos at:

Pink

Pink (A08995200) is a 1-2 year old high energy mutt that was surrendered by her owners because they couldn't afford her. She part pit bull but there is definitely some larger breed in her.

China Black

Hello everyone! My name is China Black (A09228863). I was found wandering the strays after having a litter of puppies. The shelter people don't know where my babies are and I'm very depressed being in the shelter all alon without them. I enjoy crawling into people's laps and giving kisses. On winter days, I'll cuddle with you under the blankets while you sip your hot coco (I wish I could have some too, but chocolate is bad for dogs). I'm sweet and well mannered and I really need a home. I get a little nervous around new dogs but with time I can probably live with them. If you let me be a part of your family, I would really appreciate it! Photos at:

Reed

Reed (A09242324) is a pit-mastiff mix. He was surrendered by his owners because they were having landlord issues and had to get rid of him. Reed is only 1-2 years old. This handsome guy will stop people dead in their tracks because he's so good-looking. Reed is looking for someone to take him about and about on a regular basis but not to the dog park. He doesn't like pushy male dogs. Reed doesn't know his own strength, so it would be best if he went to a home with older children. He knows 'sit' but will need the rest of his basic obedience training. Come meet this handsome fella today! Photos at:

Sonya

Sonya (A09226619) is a 3-5 year old white pit bull mix that was found as a stray. She has had many litters and people don't want her because of her sagging boobies. She's waiting for someone who can look past her exterior and see the sweet girl inside. It's a good thing she loves meeting people and going for walks because her beautiful blue eyes capture everyone's attention. Sonya would make a great family dog! Sonya doesn't like pushy dogs and should not go to the dog park but she can live with a male dog. Please come save this sweet girl! Photos at:

This girl is all about play and getting attention. Val enjoys chasing toys and sitting on your lap to offer kisses. She needs some work on house breaking and general leash manners, but this sweet girl is eager to please. Val is not a fan of cats and can pushy with some dogs but likes others! Photos at:

Isabelle needs some basic training, but seems to be quite food motivated. She seems to have the basics of house training down, which is good for a 6-12 month old that was a stray. If you’re looking for a fun, playful girl, come and meet Isabelle! Photos at:

If you’re looking for a active, super wiggley, guaranteed to make you laugh girl then Roxi is it! She needs some work on leash walking and also needs to learn the proper way to interact with other dogs and should not live with cats. Roxi is only about a year old and is looking for a wonderful home that understands she needs exercise and some lovin! Photos at:

He is goofy and loves to play and will toss around toys and chase birds every chance he gets.
