George Doggo

George Doggo is a sweet but fearful boy who's still learning to trust the world around him. While he might be shy at first, he enjoys the comfort of baby talk to help him feel safe. When approached, George can be a little unsure, sometimes retreating to find a hiding spot. With time and patience, he'll come forward on his own terms, showing his friendly and curious nature. He just needs a calm and understanding adopter to help him build confidence at his own pace. George Doggo is a diamond in the rough, ready to blossom with the right person by his side. If you're ready to give this gentle soul the love and security he deserves, visit ACCT Philly any day of the week from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Behavior notes: 01/20/2025 staff notes: BEHAVIOR EVALUATION: George Doggo KNOWN HISTORY: Stray KENNEL PRESENTATION: In the kennel, George Doggo when I approached had hard scared eyes and did a little huff at me.
