Darlene ACCT-A-209173 is currently considered urgent and at risk of euthanasia due to length of stay and lack of space for incoming dogs. Darlene must have confirmed placement with a RESCUE PARTNER, FOSTER, or ADOPTER by FRIDAY, JANUARY 3RD at 10AM. Should Darlene’s medical or behavioral status change, her urgency and timeline for placement may also change. Meet Darlene, a sweet and quiet husky who’s feeling scared and unsure in the shelter. She was brought here through no fault of her own and now she’s looking for a safe, loving home where she can feel secure again. Darlene is a sensitive girl who prefers a calm, patient approach, allowing gentle handling once she feels safe. While she’s currently uninterested in treats or play, Darlene’s husky spirit shines through in her quiet independence and cautious curiosity. Darlene would love to find a peaceful home where she can rebuild her confidence at her own pace. She’s looking for a kind, understanding person to show her the love and security she so deserves. Let’s help Darlene find a soft place to land. Darlene is open to meeting other dogs, so if you have any at home, please bring them along for a meet. She is looking for a home where any children are over the age of 12. Due to her length of stay, Darlene is urgently seeking placement with a rescue partner, foster, or adopter. BEHAVIOR: Per staff 12/29: Darlene was easy to remove from kennel and walk on leash. She was good for her dog meet even though the other dog was barking nonstop. Easy to put back in kennel as well. Per volunteer 12/28: Great on leash! Calm, sweet. Per staff 12/27: Sweet dog. Good walk. Sweet girl. Floppy girl. Per staff 12/24: Perfect, easygoing gentle lady! Walked great, enjoyed pets. Per staff 12/17: Brought Darlene out for activity time today! In the room Darlene was wiggly with multiple handlers and was playful, bouncing around the room soliciting attention and playing. Allowed all over handling without issue and took treats very gently when offered 12/16 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION: KENNEL PRESENTATION: Darlene was on her bed laying down and came to the front with a mid level wagging tail and neutral eyes when she saw me. I opened the kennel door slightly and let her sniff the leash but she yelped when she saw it and backed away. I called her a good girl and called her over while hiding the leash, giving her some pets and comfort. She dropped down submissively and pushed her head into me. I tried again to leash her but she yelped again and did a half attempted air snap. She was very nervous about the leash so we took our time and gave lots of pets. Once secured she came right out. LEASH SKILLS: Pulls minimally HANDLING: In the room, Darlene sniffed curiously around and then hid under the table near my feet. I moved the chair to see her better and she got scared and walked out. She allowed me to approach her slowly and when I went down she felt more comfortable. She allowed all handling with some tail and feet sensitivities. She moved away and looked back to see what i was doing but at other times would allow me to touch them so proceed with caution. She is a very quiet husky and prefers to be on her own, walking around and exploring. She declined treats and had no interest in play or running around. PLAY: No interest TOYS: No interest MEDICAL: On 12/20, Darlene was diagnosed with an upper respiratory infection (URI) or "doggy cold" and started on medication. She tested negative for pneumovirus at that time. During her intake exam on 12/16, Darlene was noted to be “stout” at 57.9 lbs, but did not have any medical concerns.

Per Volunteer 12/20/24: Bruno Mars was very wiggly and excited for leashing! He was jumping up on the door, but I was able to leash him by looping him up high. Such a fun energetic boy - he was trying to run all the way outside. He does pull on leash but very manageable. Loves to run and chase toys- he got the zoomies several times. He got a little jumpy on me but it was very gentle. He’s so fun!!! He loves treats and takes them gently. Knows sit and down- super smart boy. A ball of energy and fun! No issues returning to kennel. Per Staff 12/19/24: BEHAVIOR EVALUATION: Bruno Mars was sitting at the back of his kennel with neutral eyes. He cocked his head and came forward slowly with neutral eyes and body. When the handler opened the door BM got a burst of energy and did some excited toe taps and paced back and forth. Once the handler was able to leash him he came right out at a full run! LEASH SKILLS: Pulled strongly HANDLING: Bruno Mars was excited to be out when he came into the room! He ran around and jumped up on the main handler to say hi. He was hesitant to take treats, but his previous owner said he can be a bit picky with food. He took some beef flavored treats very gently after he got some options. He showed us he knows “sit” and “down”. He allowed all handling but would stiffen with extensive handling. We got a DNA test on him and he did not like restraint. He stiffened and head whipped when I tried to bear hug him, and he pawed at a leash muzzle but we were able to muzzle and pin him without escalation. He did not hold a grudge afterward and returned to soliciting and taking treats. Overall Bruno Mars is a sweet boy with husky tendencies. PLAY: Aroused with play. Got jumpy and mouthy and whined a bit but did not escalate. TOYS: No interest at this time 12/18/24 volunteer notes: I approached Brunos kennel and he came straight to the kennel Door so he was eager to get out but his head bobbed up and down a bit so it took about 20 secs to leash him . Once leashed he hopped straight out and we went for a walk . As soon as we got to parking lot he picked up the pace and surprise surprise , the husky was a good runner . He'd stop every so often and get right next to me looking for a treat which I'd give him and he knows sit and may know down. He never left the ground during the whole 15 min he was outside. He allows all patting from me and we walked back in together easily and he hopped right back in easily. He's a very sweet boy. Per owner: “Bites everything, knock down my baby, doesn’t like sleeping inside, he likes other dogs and like being outside most of the time, high energy. I wish he would not pulled me and I tried to give him a walk, he loves home meals most of the time. Has attempted to bite, friendly with strangers, children and dogs, likes to chase cats.” Staff followed up with the owner to get more information on his behavior and bite attempts, the owner noted, “ in the home Bruno can be reactive to new people and takes ample time to warm up. He especially is reactive to (stranger) men and will lunge, growl, and snap at them if they try to interact with him.” In reference to Bruno Mars knocking down the baby, the owner said, “ he didn't mean to be, whenever he was happy, he will just jump on her if he was a very happy dog.” Medical Notes: Per an exam on 12/18: Bruno was noted to be in good general health. - ACCT Philly is located at 111 West Hunting Park Ave in Philadelphia.
