Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Kel may be a little shy at first, but with a few treats and a bit of patience, his true personality shines through. Once he warms up, Kel transforms into a bouncy, wiggly, and goofy companion who loves booty scratches and happily wiggles his way into your heart.
This sweet boy takes treats gently and enjoys soft stuffie toys. He’s a playful pup who is a total people-pleaser. Kel allows all handling once he feels comfortable and will reward your kindness with a wagging tail!
Kel is looking for a loving friend to give him the confidence to thrive. Could you be the one to bring out his playful, goofy side?
Eligible for rescue, foster, and adoption. Meet Kel at ACCT Philly any day of the week from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., or email foster@acctphilly.org to express interest in fostering him.

Behavior notes:
12/14/24 volunteer notes: Kel is a goofy happy go lucky fellow. He has no idea where his legs are and has the most adorable discombobulated bouncy run. He loves belly scritches and was very eager to respond to “come here.” He got zoomies left and right and tuckered himself out. Very playful, loving, silly boy.
