Story
PT (short for Part Time, Pinky Toe, Public Transit, etc.) was born in October 2024 and adopted in January of 2025 Gainesville, FL, and then moved with her family to Philadelphia, PA in July of 2025. She has all of the personality and puppy energy you could ask for, while noticeably chilling out as she grows older. She loves going to the dog park and has incredible agility- truly a graceful freak of a dog! My partner and I have had increasingly busy schedules, and on top of that recently separated. This has put a strain on the amount of time we are able to spend going on long walks, to the park, and focusing on PT's needs in general. While the decision to rehome her has been incredible difficult, ultimately we want to find a home for PT where she can receive all of the attention she deserves.

Story
Bowie is a 2-year-old Boxer bursting with personality and charm! He is looking for an owner who can physically handle his size, strength and help him perfect his manners. He is open to meeting other pets and children who are large dog savvy. Bowie must go home with the purchase of a training package in addition to his adoption fee. This handsome guy has the perfect mix of goofy fun and sharp intelligence, always ready to make you laugh while keeping you on your toes. After a day of fun, he’s more than happy to lean in for some well-earned butt scratches (his favorite!). With his adorable nub tail and irresistibly silly face, Bowie is guaranteed to steal your heart.------------------------------------------------------------If you are interested in adopting, please visit Women`s Animal Center to fill out an application in person.

Story
Meet Paige, a charming, petite pitbull terrier with a beautiful tan coat. Born around September 2022, she’s already spayed and up to date her vaccines, making her ready for her forever home. Paige is housebroken and crate-trained, showcasing her excellent manners. Full of energy, she thrives on playful activities and enriching mental stimulation. While she currently lives in an urban area, we believe she would absolutely flourish in a peaceful suburban or rural setting with a secure fenced yard. The city noises can be overwhelming for her, and a quieter environment would allow her to truly shine. We adore this delightful girl, and we’re certain you will too! Don’t miss the chance to welcome Paige into your life—apply today! https://www.hart2heartanimalrescue.com/forms/form?formid=6527

Story
Luke is the kind of dog who lives for the joy of movement—ears flying, paws pounding, tail wagging as he races around a yard without a care in the world. At just 4 years old, this white mixed-breed terrier is bursting with energy and heart, and he’s ready to share it all with a family of his own. Luke is looking for a special home: adult-only or older dog-savvy teens, where he can be the only pet, and with a fenced yard for him to run and run to his heart’s content. After a day of play, he’s a fantastic car companion, sleeps soundly in his crate, and happily chews on a good bone. He even “watches” basketball on TV, cocking his head to the sounds of the game. But as unstoppable as Luke’s spirit is, his world is quietly changing—he’s losing his vision. It can’t be fixed, but it hasn’t slowed him down one bit. Luke doesn’t need expensive medical care or special treatment. He’s still the same vibrant, playful boy, ready to run, love, and live life to the fullest with the people who finally choose him. What Luke needs most is someone who sees beyond what’s fading and recognizes everything he still is: vibrant, loving, and ready to give his whole heart. Luke has waited long enough for his second chance. Could you be the one to give it to him? Apply today to give Luke the forever he’s been dreaming of: https://www.hart2heartanimalrescue.com/forms/form?formid=6527

Story
Meet Pop 🎉(ACCT-A-245045)! This handsome fellow is looking for a loving new home. Pop came to us when his previous family was no longer able to keep him due to landlord issues, and he's hoping his next stop is with you! Pop is described as playful and loving. He previously lived with kids of all ages. H enjoys being told he's a "good boy" and loves to play with toys⚽. He seems to know the "sit" command, which is a great start for learning even more! Our volunteers have noted that Pop can be a little unsure when meeting new people, and can be a little jumpy. With patience and positive reinforcement, he's sure to blossom into a confident and affectionate companion. He showed nice loose body language meeting another dog through the fence, and after initial greetings, he was happy to move on. Pop is full of energy and would thrive in a home that can provide him with plenty of exercise and playtime. Could you be the one to give Pop the loving and playful home he deserves? Come meet Pop today!💗 ACCT is open 10am-6pm every day! Behavior Notes: Per volunteer 3/13/2026: Kennel presentation: He was at the front of his kennel with soft eyes and a slightly furrowed brow. When I presented the leashed he noticeably loosened up. I leashed him easily. Leash Skills: He did not pull through the kennels. He pulled a bit when we got closer to the play yards and when we were headed back inside. Sociability: He enjoys pepperoni! He was a bit jumpy when the pepperoni was out. He seems to know "sit." When I went to pet him he would flinch so I did not try petting him all over. Play & Toys: I tossed some toys around and he had no reaction. Dog interaction (must be on video if meeting face-to-face): He met a dog through the fence and remained loose with mid-level tail wags. After a few seconds he walked away on his own. Returning to kennel: No issues going in. Color level: Gold 03/12/2026: Intake nurses reported, light snapping and weary behavior when trying to check in dog. They were able to complete the check in but reported some whale eyeing as well. ACCT Philly is located at 111 West Hunting Park Ave in Philadelphia. We are open for adoptions 7 days a week. Please visit www.acctphilly.org/adopt for details.
