My story

True to her name, Princess is a gentle, loving girl who’s ready to find her happily ever after. With soft eyes, a wiggly body, and the sweetest little tail wags, she’s always happy to meet a new friend. Princess is polite on leash, housebroken, and knows how to sit like a lady for treats. She loves curling up close for snuggles and will happily soak up all the affection you’re willing to give. While she’s not much for toys, she shines when spending time with people! Princess has lived with children and other dogs and would thrive in a home where she can be part of the family. She’ll need a cat-free home but promises to fill your life with love, loyalty, and plenty of tail wags. All this sweet girl needs is a family to call her own. Come meet her at ACCT Philly, open daily from 10 am to 6 pm VIDEO: Princess likes cuddles! https://youtube.com/shorts/3xsekgBGPY0?si=F4yJy7tl02V8trOp BEHAVIOR 07/06/2025 volunteer notes: Kennel presentation: princess was laying on her bed in her kennel when I approach as she saw me come up to the front she got up from her bed, and approached me with soft eyes, a loose, wiggly body and mid tail wags. I opened her kennel door as she patiently waited for me to leash her. She allowed the leash to go over her head with no issues. Leash: minimal pulling Handling: in the yard princess seems to be housebroken. She allowed all handling and remains loose and wiggly with me she knows sit and take treats nicely out of your hand. She came and curled into my lap, allowing me to handle her with no issues. She walks well on leash with minimal pulling. She didn’t have any interest in toys or play. Going back in she went into her kennel with no issues. Play: no interest Toys: no interest Color: green ACCT Philly is located at 111 West Hunting Park Ave in Philadelphia. We are open for adoptions 7 days a week. Please visit www.acctphilly.org/adopt for details. If you are a rescue interested in pulling this animal, please email our lifesaving team, or visit here if you are not currently a rescue partner: https://acctphilly.org/acct-philly-love-local-partnership-program/ Confirmed placement is considered a confirmation of an actual rescue pull. Possible placement, interested parties, and other "TBD" statuses are not considered confirmed and do not indicate an animal is no longer urgent.
