Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Ready to add a first-round pick to your roster? Meet Jason Kelce (the dog, not the person!)

This friendly, affectionate senior is looking for a calm home where he can continue building up his confidence and enjoy the good life. In his golden years, Jason prefers the simple pleasures: slow strolls, quality couch time with his people, and proudly emptying out his toy chest one stuffy at a time.

Jason recently had a dental surgery where he had multiple teeth extracted, and is also taking medication to help manage some skin issues and is on a weight loss plan to help him (and his joints!) feel his best. According to his previous home, he's house-trained, knows some basic commands, and generally does well when left alone, though a few transition-related accidents may happen as he settles in.

Jason can be sensitive to loud or sudden sounds and can become reactive when overstimulated on walks, so he's looking for a quieter, lower-traffic home with patient people who can help him feel safe and supported. And Jason would also prefer to be your one-and-only pet.

This dog is considered a mixed breed because it's not accurate to identify breed mix by sight alone, so for most dogs, their mix is only a guess. We get to know each dog as an individual and strive to make matches based on personality, not on breed label.

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.
