My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Chew!

Chew was brought in with her siblings as a young neglected pup on Nov 18th. Chew and her siblings were found with their mom in a neglected house, and it was clear no one had been taking care of them.

Since we are still getting to know her, she should go to an adult only home. See what her friends on the staff had to say during her behavior evaluation on 11/19:

"Chew was a bit nervous in the room but walked around slowly exploring with a low tail, neutral body language. She would come over to us with soft eyes and allowed us to pet her without issue. As time went on she would warm up more, especially with cheese and tennis balls. She allowed all handling without issue and began to lean in more as time went on. She is shy and needs a few minutes to warm up. If you go for handling too quick she will tense slightly, but was never reactive."

Does your home seem like a match for this young husky? You can meet her at ACCT Philly any day from 10am-6pm!
