Story
Coco is a little over a year old. She is full of energy. Loves to run, and play. She needs someone who will keep her exercised and busy. She loves pets and snuggles. She is very playful with cats and small children so an introduction period may be necessary. She is fixed, house broken and crate trained but we have not had any professional training. We can provide vet records. I would request a vet reference for any potential adopters.

Story
Looking for a new King in your castle? I'm looking for a new home to call my own! I came to the shelter when my owner wasn't able to care for me, and I'm not so sure I like the shelter when I have seen what the life of being a spoiled pup can be like! I am still a young guy - just around 9 months old and already a hefty 60 pounds, so I may get a smidge bigger as I grow! I was doing well with house training, and could likely thrive in an active home who will let me run, play and explore to my heart's content! If you think we could be a royally great match, come meet me and let's see if we can take on life together!   Have Room in Your Home?

Story
ABOUT SUNFLOWER Sunflower is a 2-year-old sweetheart! Before making her way to HAP, Sunflower was originally a Texas girl. Despite being bounced around a bit, this girl isn't phased at all! Sunflower LOVES meeting new people and has done well walking with her doggy friends at the shelter! This sweet girl is quick to roll over in order for someone to have full access to pay the tummy tax! One of Sunflower's favorite things is to 'go shopping' in one of the many toy baskets in our facility and she will help herself by throwing herself almost completely into the basket and will take her time searching through until she finds the one her heart desires! Once she's made her selection, she likes to cuddle up with the toy before bringing it in with her into her kennel where she has a huge toy pile of all of her favorite possessions that she's always snuggling with! While she's only been with us less than a month, she has already had many adventures through our Doggy Day Out program. Here's what some volunteers had to say about her: "Sunflower is the sweetest baby! We walked 5.3 miles at Bellevue Park. Met a couple horses on the trail which I think fascinated her! Had a good time sniffing all around, saw squirrels, people, other dogs and she was fine. She didn't pull on the leash and she was always checking in with me during our walk. She loves pets and has a constant tail wag. I needed to help her into the car because she is a shorty but she had no trouble getting out. She is just the perfect doggo! - Autumn "I took Sunflower out today! She's such a sweet girl (and very photogenic)! She loved sniffing, watching squirrels, and meeting people. Walked very well on a leash for almost 4 miles! Of course we ended the day with a pup cup. I hope she finds her family soon! - Sydney If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.

Story
ABOUT NALA Nala is seeking a patient, loving owner! She is a 4-year-old pittie mix who would thrive in a calmer environment. Nala came to HAP when her owners could no longer care for her. During her first couple weeks at the shelter, she was incredibly scared and stressed. Our team would often find her curled up in the corner of her kennel, constantly shaking. Upon increased interactions with her, she would show signs that she wanted to make friends, but wasn't quite sure how to trust yet. While she has improved and is learning to trust humans, she still has moments where she is unsure with new people. Once she is comfortable with you, Nala is a very sweet girl. She loves to curl up in your lap for pets and kisses. She is also very treat motivated and loves any bacon or beef snacks. We think in a quieter environment, with less stress, Nala is likely to become a laid-back couch potato! **Nala is a fearful, timid girl and may react if her boundaries are pushed too much. Due to this, she would do best in a home without children. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.

Story
This friend has just arrived because their owner could no longer keep them. While owners can provide some history on their pets, our medical and behavioral teams will still evaluate them. Dogs that have lived in homes previously typically have some training established, but we cannot guarantee that those behaviors will remain consistent in a new home environment. They are pending interactions with other animals at the shelter until they have been cleared by our vet. Our staff will spend some time getting to know them and we will update their bio with more information as we learn.

Story
Hello people, I'm RockyDude - you may have seen my face before.. If not, I'll tell you my story: I am a very handsome guy, and I'm settling into my new digs tonight, but I still need a forever family to call my own! The humans said a lot of people worked on getting me to safety, though, and we have to thank them first! You see, my pals at ACCT Philly are overwhelmed with dogs, and they have to take all of us in to keep us safe, so they rely on people - adopters and fosters like you, and shelters/ rescues, like Faithful Friends, to help us out and to safety! These humans even kept me well past my "timestamp", so I could be transported safely to my new digs in Delaware this afternoon! It was lucky timing, as the state JUST lifted the ban on out of state pups, so they were able to bring me here and give my humans more time to come get me. They said there were lots of people who were trying to figure out how to save me in such short time - so now you know, you can come visit me here! Here's my short list of qualities from my friends and time at ACCT, since my new pals have gotten me my intake exam, a few walks, and settled into my kennel after my long day - they'll be able to give you more information soon, too! I have a good history with cats I have a good history with dogs I know sit, down, and will trade for toys, too! I love tennis balls and squeaky toys! I am 3 years old, and a fully grown 66 pounds I know there's a lot of dogs in need, and a lot of great dogs, at that! But I really hope that I won't have to spend many more nights in a shelter kennel - even though I am so happy to be safe, and have time to find a family.. I really hope that someone who said they were going to come get me, actually comes to bring me home, so we can start happily ever after together! Love, RockyDude Please come visit during shelter hours: Tuesday-Friday from 12pm-7pm and Saturday from 12pm-5pm!
