Wilson - Doberman Pinscher and Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Meet handsome WILSON(FNA Fresh Prince).

Wilson came to ACCT Philly as a stray on 11/19 with wounds to his private areas. Since coming into ACCT's care, he has been spending time healing and socializing in his foster home.

This young pup is under two years old and is fully housebroken! He LOVES chewing on bones and enrichment toys...in fact it's his favorite thing!

Though his past is unclear, this sweet boy has come a long way in foster care and is now seeking his forever home! Though he is initially shy to strangers, once trust is built, he is the most loyal companion!

Wilson has gotten along with an American bully mix, shepherd and a French bulldog, so he may thrive with another doggie companion in the home! However, slow introductions are key (he will never be the kind of guy to go into a dog park and make friends).

This handsome man is seeking an adult only home (no children) that is an experienced adopter with fearful dogs. If you're interested in meeting Wilson, please email brooke@acctphilly.org after submitting an adoption application on ACCT's website !
