Rottweiler puppies and dogs in Hatboro, Pennsylvania

My family is currently going through an extremely emotional and difficult time. Because of this situation, we can no longer provide the care our dog needs. Rocky is a 5-year-old male Rottweiler, he's a wonderful dog loved by all of our friends and family. We went through a lot of training with him and he does not have a mean bone in his body. We can no longer fulfill his needs so we want to be sure he gets the proper care and attention. He is up to date on shots, well cared for, and I have all of his paperwork and medical records. It breaks our hearts, but we want him to have the best possible life and a safe place where he won't be at risk of being put down. One last thing, if you do adopt him... if possible, I would need access just one more time so that my daughter can say goodbye when she returns from college.

Meet beautiful Zuna, a girl who has had a run of bad luck but hoping it's turning around! She was originally found as a stray then adopted, then unfortunately surrendered again when her owners moved. Zuna is a sweet and handler oriented girl, who can be jumpy and very eager at times! Zuna is available for rescue partner at ACCT Philly - email lifesaving@acctphilly.org. Behavior Notes: Per Volunteer 2/22/26: She ran to the front of the kennel when I approached and was very wiggly when I dropped treats. As soon as I opened the door and the leash came out, she would back away and dodge it with her head. I tried a few times to leash without being able to because she dodged it. I finally made a loop on the ground and put treats in the middle of it and picked the leash up as she was eating the treats. She ran out of the kennel after being leashed and she definitely pulls quite a bit on leash. She is extremely treat motivated and will jump up at your hand if you’re holding a treat up for her. She did show me that she knows sit and patiently waited for her Treat after. She is a little snatchy with it from your hand, but no issues with feeding her from my hand. She is a little pushy with handling so I would stop petting her and she would lean up against me and push her head under my hand so I would keep petting her. When she saw other dogs through the fence, she had a wagging nub of a tail with interested body and alert ears. She liked sitting right between my legs and seemed pretty alert when doing so, not sure if she was protecting me but was attached to my hip! Had a few nice dog meets through the fence. No issues walking through kennels or back into hers, just strong on leash. Per Staff 2/18/2026: Surgery attempted to get out to bring her back to be spayed. The tech could not leash her up and asked if I could help. When I presented the leash she would back up, bouncing back and forth. When the leash was not presented she would come up and allowed me to pet under her chin/chest area. Instead of leashing with the slip, I was able to clip the leash to her collar. She pulled hard on the leash, zig zagging through the kennel. Her nose was to the ground, seemed to be searching for food. In Surgery the doctor was able to listen to her, however when we went to give the injection she turned and snapped at the vet. We decided to place a muzzle on her. She still attempted to snap/bite with muzzle on and after when I was trying to remove the muzzle. Per volunteer 5/20/25: She was shy at first and didnt wwant to come out so I sat in her kennel and held out my hand with treats in them, she came up to me and licked my hand and took the treats one after the ofher so then I held up the leash infront of my hand and she put her head through the leash to take the treat and out we went very easily. Once the leash was on her she was very comfortable and happy to be outside for the first time since she's been at acct . She's def a gentle giant . If you are on grass she likes to sniff a lot and just walk around wherever her nose takes her and if we switched to pavement she'd stop sniffing and go for slow jogs ( about a 12 min mile pace) .she's gets tired quickly so she only jogs for about 1 min and then walks for 2 and then jogs for 1 minute again , and then walks for 2 , but she's.very happy when she breaks out for that 1 min run . When we stopped and rested she took treats very easily and allowed me to give her rubs all over. When we came back in she hopped right in with no issue . I'd expect she'll come straight out tomorrow. Per staff 5/15/25: She did well for her intake. She is very food motivated so we put hotdogs pieces all over the floor and was able to fully check her in without any issues. Per staff 5/15/25: KENNEL PRESENTATION: Mel B was at the front of her kennel with a wagging nub and soft eyes. As soon as she saw the leash she backed all the way up and started baring teeth, growling and hard barking. I was able to toss some treats and reach in but she dodged the leash again. I decided to open the kennel half way, make her sit for a treat and quickly loop her. Once secured she came right out. LEASH SKILLS: Pulls very strong HANDLING : In the room, Mel B was showing all the puppy behaviors. She can be a bit wild and jumpy but was still somehow gentle and cuddly. She allowed all handling and was loose and wiggly. She takes treats very snatchy even with an open pal so toss treats. She likes anything and will eat everything. She knows sit and down and wiggled her entire body trying to contain her excitement. She was super goofy and playful and a treat to be around. She is a very good girl and an overall super gentle but great girl . PLAY: Engages in play TOYS: Loves squeaky toys – can be picky with her selection Medical: 2/17/2026: Patient was BAR and friendly, overall cooperative until after DHPP was administered. Patient barked, growled and flail and was muzzled alongside a towel covering her vision. The rest of the vaccinations went well.

Vader is between 1 to 2 years old and was found stray in Philly. He waited patiently for his owner but no one showed up. While waiting at the shelter, volunteers and vet staff commented that he was a very sweet dog. After his stray hold, off he came to Kodi's Club! Vader enjoys his humans and is overall a cooperative boy. Vader does not automatically bond with his human. There is a hint of a very strict prior life that looks like a weary affect when approached. Patience, space, and an environment that promotes a sense of security and safety are the tools to bring out the real Vader. Vader hasn't had much Obedience work so needs some leash work, as he will pull toward tempting scents of interest and has the strength to pull his handler. On leash walks, he has pretty much not shown interest in other dogs. Free to play in a group at the shelter, he also didn't present as interested in other dogs, but more so in scents in the yard. Vader will require a physically fenced yard. Learning not to jump up as part of his repertoire with new people is on his To Do list. Vader takes treats gently and is very appreciative! Because he's a young boy and needs to be taught to control his excitement, he will require an experienced owner who is also willing to schedule training sessions to fine tune his manners. No children under 12. Cats unknown. Interested in being considered? Head over to our website at www.kodisclub.org/applications and submit our application! PA Dog License #18512 Souderton, PA

This is Bear who was found stray, playing in the streets of Philly, with a black and white dog, for the THIRD time 🙄. They were reclaimed the first 2 times, but not this time. Bear is neutered, friendly, and very very sweet. He solicits pets by nudging your hand and thoroughly enjoys the attention. He always takes treats gently. While somewhat shy at first with strangers, once he's been introduced to new humans, he's a trusting boy, which is nice to find in a rescued dog. His owners must have shown him lots of love despite not coming to the shelter for him. A few treats work wonders in his warm up. Food is definitely one of his motivators but he also equally enjoys attention. His noggin is pure eye candy! Bear pulls somewhat on leash but the pulling is initially out of excitement. He does slow down, but a little training along with steady exercise will address that. He's a big sniffer on walks! He enjoys the company of other dogs, but has not been tested with cats. Children over 10 would be best due to his size and energy. If you'd like be considered for Bear, our application is on www.kodisclub.org/applications!

Rocco is a very sweet, well-mannered, big guy estimated to be about 2 years old by the shelter. From the day he joined Kodi's Club, he has proven to be a neat, housebroken boy. Rocco has a calm, non-reactive temperament. He actually ignored the other dogs at the shelter who were carrying on and just walked by them minding his own business. True to his breed, while reserved at first, once he is comfortable with his new people, he's a big mush. Rocco is really somewhat of a silly boy under the surface, he just wants to form an opinion of you first! He is also very food motivated and will do whatever asked if he knows there is a treat involved. Did I mention that his favorite toy is a hard rubber ball he received as a gift? He does need leash work as he's a strong boy and pulls hard to follow scents of interest. Rocco crates beautifully but will sometimes briefly complain at first, but it isn't persistent.  Cats are unknown. Children over 12 who have lived with, and are comfortable with, large dogs If you'd like to be considered for Rocco, simply submit our application that can be found on www.kodisclub.org/applicaions and we can begin the process! ​PA dog license #18512  Souderton PA

This young lad is Beau! Everyone who has met him at the shelter and rescue loves his sweet temperament. Beau was surrendered to the shelter because the owner's landlord did not allow dogs in their residence. Beau is a friendly and loving teenager. He is a strong boy on leash. He would do best in a house with a fenced-in yard at least 4 or 5 ft high. It would be good if he could not see out of the fence. as he is easily distracted and gets fixated on squirrels, bunnies, frogs, deer, or whatever he sees as fun. We can't tell if it's play or prey, but he becomes stimulated and it is hard to break his fixation. He will need Obedience in walking on a leash especially if there are distractions. Beau cannot wait to get his driver's license as he loves to ride in a car. Any car is fine lol, and he will jump into anything with a door open, our vet's van. neighbor's car, Fedex, etc. Once in the car, he settles down for an adventure. He's hoping for employment with Amazon in the future. We are asking for a home for Beau that does not have other animals, or children under 12. While he is not otherwise by nature aggressive, he will guard any high value snack or treat from other animals. As for toys, he will require toys for aggressive chewers and don't assume they will last forever. Black kongs, antlers, marrow bones work, but if there are other animals in the home he will guard these possessions as well, from other animals. He simply prefers not to share! We have not seen the guarding with his caretakers, just other animals. Due to a lack of enough foster homes, Beau is in a boarding kennel with a doggy door. He has kept his kennel clean and always used the doggy door appropriately. While he eats his regular meals peacefully next to the dogs in adjacent kennels, he guards any special treats we may give out. If you believe you meet Beau's criteria for adoption and would like to be considered, please proceed to our website at www.kodisclub.org/applications and submit our application PA License# 18512 Souderton, PA
