Story
This girl right here is why we exist. This girl who exemplifies all the delightful things of Dogs and who has yet to land in a spot perfect for her. Lulu was most likely used for breeding and then discarded like so many other Good Dogs are here in Philly. Left to fend for herself in a park during the coldest week of winter, she somehow survived by scrounging for food scraps and possibly sleeping in an abandoned house. We are still in awe that she survived it all and finally was trapped by our volunteers. One of our friends made space in her basement and we fortunately found a foster the day the basement began to flood from a rainstorm the night before. She was so tired it was difficult to get a good understanding of who she really was at first. Now that some time has gone by and she has received full medical care and found safety with our friends we feel we understand her a bit more. She is a dream cuddler! She has had great dog meets, though we would definitely take things slow. She hasn't met smaller kids but has met an older kid, we think kids over 12 yrs old would be great while we are getting to know her. We definitely need a cat free home for her, she is residing with one now who she isn't doing well with. She loves to hike and has a lot of fun energy. She loves toys and can solve puzzles faster than a toddler. She snores adorably when she sleeps. She is petite and as pretty as they come! She just needs a little finesse, she just needs stability! Lulu urgently needs a committed foster with no cats now! Her current foster says she is a perfect little dog and just needs a cat free home. Fosters get first dibs at adopting! Please, if you have room in your heart and your home, Lulu needs a space to stay a while. Or forever.

Bug

American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Adult
Philadelphia, PA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
This guy is very funny and sweet, and he wants pets and cuddles all the time. (called Bug because he is a love bug!). He did fine with an older dog in foster's home during a weekend together, but had a tense interaction with a cat so they were separated. Bug is very energetic and would do well in a home where he can get lots of walks and attention. He might do well in a home with another dog, as he likes to play. Needs training. He is very strong and pulls on walks. He did jump a low fence once, but did not seem to want to run away, just to smell some things outside the fence. However he did show aggression when trying to get him back inside at first before calmly entering by himself. He also gets into anything left out on counters, etc, including the occasional paperback book. He has lots of love to give and with some training, will be an excellent addition to someone’s home.

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, Young
Philadelphia, PA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Chewy was found in the Logan section of Philadelphia on March 3rd. At that time, she was estimated to be 18 months old. She has been to the vet for a full round of care, including a spay, since. At around 45 pounds, she is a goofy, energetic young pup who loves to play and receive love from humans. She gets along with cats and children and may need a dedicated adopter to take her through puppy training / socialization to discover or guide her response to other dogs. Chewy is mostly housebroken and responds well to structure and positive feedback. She currently sleeps in a crate and cuddles all the available laps. Your first step to taking this chocolate-eyed sweetheart home is to fill out our Adoption Application. She eagerly awaits the adventures inherent in a life co-created with her forever family unit!

Story
With a tail that wags with sheer delight and a heart full of love, Kiwi is the ultimate companion for those who crave cuddles and companionship. This bubbly pup is sure to melt hearts of all shapes and sizes! She is always eager to be by your side and soak up all the attention. Whether it's snuggling up on the couch for a movie marathon or tagging along for a car ride adventure, Kiwi seems happiest when surrounded by love. Despite her distaste for rainy days, Kiwi does well on a leash during bathing and even rains down unwavering affection on those around her. She's a curious soul, always eager to explore the world around her, and always mild-tempered. In terms of good behavior, Kiwi is a shining star. She excels on a leash, greets everyone with a friendly wag, and is especially great with children. Plus, she's currently being fostered alongside another dog, showcasing her ability to get along with furry friends. Potty training may be a work in progress, but she's also been through several temporary homes in an effort to find a steady landing place for her until her forever family finds her. Given Kiwi's adaptability and intelligence, she's sure to catch on quickly, especially in a loving and supportive home. To begin the process of welcoming this girl home, please fill out our Adoption Application.
