My story

  Just like Ms. Frizzle's Magic School Bus could transform into a plane, submarine, spaceship or surfboard, this pup is ready transform your life with her joyful, happy energy! Ms. Frizzle has a big heart and thrives when spending time with people, greeting new friends with tail wags and lots of sniffs. While she is playful and a lot of fun, she also knows how to chill out and do her own thing. When not playing fetch or sniffing around the backyard, Ms. Frizzle is a true couch potato and loves to snuggle. Her foster has also discovered that she loves long walks and is patient while on leash (give or take a squirrel chase or two). She’s the ideal medium energy pup! Ms. Frizzle is mostly housebroken, with only a few accidents in her foster's home as she got used to a new routine and environment. She is also still adjusting to spending time in a crate, and practicing her crate training. Ms. Frizzle has previously done well when meeting other dogs, and likely could benefit from some canine companionship, but she is looking for a cat-free home. Ms. Frizzle came to us with a corneal ulcer in one of her eyes, and though it has healed, we suspect that she will always have a slightly abnormal looking eye—which just adds to her charm! So what are you waiting for? Take chances, explore new worlds, and adopt Ms. Frizzle—your adventure begins when you let this magical pup drive her way into your heart! Age: ~4 years old How I came to PAWS: Found Stray Animal ID#: A-179885 Weight: 47 lbs Mixed breed (It’s impossible to identify breed mix by sight alone, so for most dogs, their mix is only a guess. We get to know each dog as an individual and strive to make matches based on personality, not on breed label.) Location: Foster Care &#226&#128&#139All of our dog meets are by appointment only; to get started, please complete the adoption application. To learn more about this dog, please contact us at adoptions@phillypaws.org or 215-298-9680 ext. 16. Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society, 2900 Grays Ferry Ave, Phila, PA 19146 (by appointment only).
