Pretty girl Autumn (11869496) is a 3-5 year-old American Bulldog mix that was found as a stray. At first meet, Autumn is a little shy but she warms up quickly and will offer cuddles and kisses.

Autumn is a spunky little love bug that also gets very excited abouttoys and will toss them around, pounce, run in circles and start all over again. She has noissues with resource guarding and is polite with most other dogs. She is pretty good withleash walking, but could use a refresher course in basic training. Email her Pen Pal atszimmer@hotmail.com for more information!

These animals are located at Philadelphia’s animal control shelter, ACCT. They need immediate adoption or foster care.
