Debbie Cakes, mixed breed

Debbie Cakes is a lovable female mixed breed dog currently housed at PAWS (Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society).

She is already vaccinated and spayed.

Here's more about Debbie Cakes:

Debbie Cakes is as sweet as her name. This older gal has all the benefits of a mature lady: she's calmer, walks well on leash and seems to be housebroken. She is affectionate and gentle. She does well with other calmer dogs, and will play bow and be very interested in sniffing and making friends. Debbie could live with children who are used to large dogs and will be gentle with her.

Sachi, pit bull terrier mix

Sachi is a winsome female pit bull terrier mix in the care of Animal Care and Control Team of Philadelphia.

She's already spayed.

Here's more about Sachi:

The minute you meet Sachi, you know she just loves people. Sachi has a generally mellow personality and loves to snuggle. She also loves to give kisses, so watch out. She is great meeting strangers inside and outside the home. She is also potty trained, knows basic commands and walks well on a leash. She is great with kids, although unaware of her size so would probably do best in a home with older children and no cats.

Here's more about Rocket:

This handsome dude has plenty of energy. Rocket is looking to be your main attraction and will do best as the only dog in your house.

He is smart and very willing to work alongside you to learn how to find the zen moments.
