The following are dogs who are Red Alerts on the euthanization list due to shelter overcrowding, but are available for adoption from shelters all across the US. They are all amazing and ready to find their forever homes. Their status can change at any time. Below or above each photo are the notes, along with the ID#, about each dog from various shelter workers and rescuers. Some animals may be available for transport to other cities/states, just ask. 5,000,000 animals are put to death every year in American shelters. Let’s stop the cycle:
Hey! My name is Bella! I am a gorgeous 1-2 year old Pit mix. I was found as a stray and brought into ACCT. I am so sad and depressed here in the kennels, but once I get outside into the play area I am a totally different dog! I am active and love to play! I will settle for body handling and I have no issues with food. ACCT is located at: 111 W. Hunting Park Ave, Phila., PA 19140 Phone: 267-385-3800 Email: [email protected] or [email protected]

***EXTREMELY URGENT*** DUNSTON - ID#A1120711 My name is Dunston and I am an unaltered male, brown brindle and white Border Collie and Staffordshire Bull Terrier. My age is unknown. I weigh approximately 74 pounds. I have been at the shelter since Jun 3, 2010, and on New Hope Alert list since July 18, 2010. *Please note that LA Animal Services DO NOT provide euth dates for the animals. Once an animal is placed on New Hope Alert, the animal can be euthanized anytime without further notice. Dunston is cute beyond words, isn't he?! He is very shy and he doesn't do a whole lot when you first meet him; he wouldn't walk on the leash nor would he respond to you in any way. But no worries, he's just trying to figure stuff out 😉 It'd only take him a few minutes to warm up. And next thing you know, he's your best friend and he would not leave your side! He is friendly toward people and he's done well walking alongside other dogs too! He's looking for a wonderful home to call his own.

See VIDEO http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/17339995 Ragu is a 2-year-old Pit bull mix. He is full grown and weighs about 45 lbs. Ragu is a sweet boy. He is very curious about other dogs, cats and new surroundings. He likes to go for walks and play with toys. Ragu gets along well with other dogs but is a bit on the dominant side and does bark and chase cats. He was submissive when he came into the shelter. He has since become more territorial (barking at fence) after being in the shelter too long. He likes to roll over for belly rubs and doesn’t mind being tugged or pulled on. This is a good, well-run shelter with caring people. They don't want to kill dogs, but they cannot keep up with the flood coming in this time of year! -- ALL animals that they post on Petfinder are ADOPTABLE. They are temperment tested (results available), up to date with yearly shots and healthy. There is NOTHING wrong with these dogs -- except that time and kennel space are not there for them.
