Meet Sabine! This friendly pup came to the shelter as a stray on 9/11, and while he was a bit nervous at first, he's quickly coming out of his shell. Sabine is playful, happy-go-lucky, and ready to bring his joyful energy to a loving home. Could he be the one for you? Sabine is currently eligible for rescue and adoption. Head to ACCT Philly any day of the week from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. to meet him! Behavioral: Per volunteer 9/15: Sabine is such a handsome boy. He pulls a bit on the leash, but did better with it as a harness. He enjoyed playing with toys and shaking them, but he didn't destroy them. He happily traded for a different toy. He takes treats gently. He even snuck in a few kisses. He wasn't jumpy or pushy in anyway, he seems pretty well behaved and happy to have the attention. Per volunteer 9/14: Sabine just got here a few days ago so he's feeling a bit scared. Sabine was unsure when he first came out, but after some time he completely opened up! Sabine was clearly someone's pet as he's housetrained and knows commands. Sabine loves treats, food is definitely the way to his heart. He is also a playful boy and loved running around with me and playing tug. Sabine is vocal when playing but it is all in good fun, he happily brought his rope back to me to continue tugging. No signs of guarding. Per staff on 9/12: BEHAVIOR EVALUATION: Sabine KNOWN HISTORY: Stray KENNEL PRESENTATION: Sabine looked up with soft eyes and low wags, he was patient for leashing and came right out. LEASH SKILLS: Pulls minimally HANDLING: Sabine came outside and immediately went to the bathroom. He ignored the handlers for a while and just sniffed around the yard. When the handler approached him he stiffened up but she offered him treats and he took them with a wagging tail. He seems a bit unsure with direct confrontation from the handler but just remains still. He takes treats very gently and knows sit but is very stubborn. He was very excited to see a dog through the gate. He allowed all handling overtime with patience and treats but was a little stressed and drooled quite a bit.
