Scout is scouting the city for his forever family- could it be you? He's seeking a kind and active owner, who can give him play time and treats for life! Sweet boy was found as a stray so we don't know much about his past other than that we can't track down his owner from his microchip. He's now available for adoption at ACCT Philly. You can meet him any day from 10am-6pm. Video: Scout on the A frame: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ixQ9DpRWz0M?feature=share Scout knows sit: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/WIwhfYHOoek?feature=share Behavior: Per Volunteer 9/15/24: Very wiggly for leashing! He tried to dodge the leash a few times before allowing it. He liked to prance around while walking! He pulled a bit and was barking at other dogs as we walked by but wasn't overly reactive. In the play yard he lovesss running around! He jumped up on me when he was zooming and excited. Took treats very gently! Not overly treat motivated but enjoyed them. he did great at the acct photoshoot without reacting to the additional stimuli. Hesitated before going back into kennel but went in with some pressure. Playful and super cute boy! Per Staff 9/12/24: BEHAVIOR EVALUATION: Scout KNOWN HISTORY: Stray KENNEL PRESENTATION: Scout was sitting by the door, soft eyes and a wagging tail. He was excited sp he was moving around but once he was caught he was easy to leash and came right out. LEASH SKILLS: Pulls moderately HANDLING: Scout came outside with a lot of energy and a wagging tail. He knows how to sit and takes treats nicely. He is a very silly and goofy boy that loves to run around and chase the handler. He is a very very goofy boy and tried stealing treats from the bag. He allowed all handling and is very treat motivated. His big head and wiggly body makes him the sweetest and most perfect running body and cuddler. He does get a little mouthy with play once he gets overly excited and does jump up alot. Be careful of your arms and hands when he becomes extremely playful. He can be redirected with toys and treats PLAY Will play with anyone and anything TOYS: Interest and will trade for treats ACCT Philly is located at 111 West Hunting Park Ave in Philadelphia.
