Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption

Noella is a bright, playful little firecracker with a whole lot of charm packed into a petite package. She's curious, confident, and equally happy heading out for her next adventure or curling up for a cuddle.

Toys are Noella's love language-tug toys, balls, squeaky toys...she loves them all (and yes, she can play fetch!) She's one smart cookie too, already learning sit, touch, and down, with stay in progress. Training is fun and easy with Noella thanks to her big enthusiasm and love of food, she even sleeps through the night in her crate like a champ. Noella adores enrichment and has excellent taste in treats, happily enjoying apples, blueberries, pears, and bananas.

She's a dedicated chewer who loves a good bully stick, so appropriate chew outlets are a must. She's looking for an adopter who is dedicated to continue working on her mouthy puppy behaviors through redirection and training. She may overwhelm young kiddos, but we're open to chatting more depending on their comfort and experience with dogs.

We also believe she would thrive in a home with a tolerant dog who matches her energy and doesn't mind a small, bouncy playmate. Noella is still polishing her play manners but takes corrections beautifully and redirects easily.

When playtime winds down, Noella shows her softer side-sticking close to her people, patiently waiting for an invite onto the couch, and happily snoozing beside you during TV time. Playful, clever, and affectionate, Noella is ready to bring a whole lot of joy to her forever home. Apply to adopt Noella and email adoptions@phillypaws.org for more info!

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.
