This pit bull puppy was found Friday night, around 11 p.m., near Warrington and Saint Bernard. The puppy looks to be about 4 months old and appears to be a red nose pit. The person who found him took him to the PAWS clinic and he got all his shots and dewormed. The puppy is getting along with a dog and a cat that live in the house where he’s currently staying. He’s already being potty trained and learning to walk on the leash.

The puppy doesn’t have a microchip.

If the puppy’s owner is not found he will need a new home. He can only be fostered at his current location until the owner or a new home is found. If you have any information about the owner or would like to adopt the puppy please email: avery.carter [at] gmail.com.

This small, sweet, docile, friendly female beagle was found tonight running scared at The Woodland Cemetery (40th and Woodland), according to neighbor Cindy Miller. The dog had no microchip and was taken to Penn Vet. If this is your dog or if  you would like to foster her until her owners are found or until she gets adopted, please contact Cindy at: cm53@earthlink.net

Genza

A pretty cool thing happened last night that we wanted to tell you about. A West Philly Local reader, Holly, contacted us to tell us that her family found a large brown male dog with cropped ears near 49th and Chester. The dog was found around 7 p.m. He had a collar but no tags. He was docile, clean, and well fed, “clearly someone’s pet.” 

Just when we were about to share this information, we got a message from another reader, Sara, who was looking for her dog, a 13-year-old Mastiff named Genza who went missing from S. 47th and Kingsessing yesterday. The key words in Genza’s description provided by Sara were “large” and “cropped ears” so we immediately contacted Holly with this information. And guess what, Holly’s family had Genza! The dog was reunited with his family just after a few hours he was lost.

“Amazing!…This is one very loved dog and he had a lot of us worried sick,” Sara wrote us later.

We’re very happy for Genza’s quick and safe return to his family and want to thank Holly and her family. We have some of the best readers in the world!

A small white and brown dog with a bulldog nose and underbite (looks like a terrier/bulldog mix) was found this afternoon, around 4:15 p.m. on Drexel’s campus, near 32nd and Arch. She had a collar but no tags. If this is your dog or if you know where she lives please contact Max at: octobermax@gmail.com
