Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption

Clarence is a scruffy, happy-go-lucky young guy with a whole lot of love packed into a little package. When he gets excited (which is often!), his entire body joins in-tail wagging, butt wiggling, and ears perked up the moment he spots a new friend. He absolutely adores people and is happiest when he's soaking up attention, pets, and affection. And now all he needs is a foster home to call his own!

Clarence was recently returned from a foster home where he lived with very young children, and while he was mostly happy to be apart of the family, he also displayed some signs of stress. So while he's decompressing, and we're still getting to know him and understanding his needs, we think that Clarence would do best living in a quieter and calmer home where he can take things at his own pace. And where he can receive structure, patience, and the time he needs to settle in and show his best self.

So if you're able to help out with a loyal, wiggly companion who will greet you with full-body happiness and lots of love, Clarence could be your guy and please reach out to us at foster@phillypaws.org!

If you're interested in taking Clarence out for a daytrip, email daytrips@phillypaws.org.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
