My story

Remy is a sweet, nervous pup who’s slowly learning that kindness and patience can make all the difference. At first, he’s unsure and cautious, but with a gentle approach, he starts to warm up and show his vulnerable side. He’s fine with some handling, lets you lead him outside, and even rolls in the grass, a sign that he’s starting to feel comfortable. While he’s not quite ready for toys or treats just yet, with time, patience, and understanding, Remy’s true, affectionate nature is sure to blossom. Lil Remy is looking for someone who can give him the space, patience, and love he needs to become his best self. Could you be that person? Come meet him at ACCT Philly any day between 10 am & 6 pm VIDEOS Remy making friends https://youtube.com/shorts/QdFRP4bqLNQ?si=f05LmG5LPx18AWmT Remy & Milo Smilo Meet https://youtube.com/shorts/vfQ6SVL5vKg?si=AmTZPJeHN8SAja2H Remy, Berkeley, Olivia, Teddy Bear, Clarissa Drop Leash: https://youtube.com/shorts/ButJht036JU?feature=share Belladonna, Berkeley, Remy, Clarissa, Oliva, Teddy Bear Drop Leash: https://youtube.com/shorts/1o81wG3DRbw?feature=share Brody, Clarissa, Berkeley, Teddy Bear, Olivia, Remy Drop Leash: https://youtube.com/shorts/HaRn_XCQVHg?feature=share Remi likes belly rubs: https://youtube.com/shorts/3hNx1sNM0rs?si=MvwYxNZL8_F9B8Nk BEHAVIOR 06/16/2025 staff notes, playgroup: Stiff, timid, loosened up once in the yard, tail wags, good greetings, interested, curious 06/11/2025 Staff notes: When I apporached Remy was at the front of his kennel and ran to the back corner with a tight buddy. i slowly reached in with the leash and he lowered his head, quickly darting from side to side. i opened the kennel door some more and allowed him to come forward as i made a big loop. once secured i tried some handling but he got very tense and gave some lip licks so i stopped. we went outside for a dog meet and for some air. he went to the bathroom, enjoyed his dog meet, and rolled in the grass. he would fully allow to touch him or get too close as he was very nervous but tolerated some very slow and handling about two times. he was pulling back when i tried to return him and needed some leash pressure. 06/11/2025 volunteer notes: Met king summers: tail was high when meeting, sniffed and walked away. 06/07/2025 staff notes, intake: TTA - P was tense, showing teeth and whale eyes in intake and would not allow us approach him in order to examine him ACCT Philly is located at 111 West Hunting Park Ave in. We are open for adoptions 7 days a week. Please visit www.acctphilly.org/adopt for details. If you are a rescue interested in pulling this animal, please email our lifesaving team, or visit here if you are not currently a rescue partner: https://acctphilly.org/acct-philly-love-local-partnership-program/ Confirmed placement is considered a confirmation of an actual rescue pull. Possible placement, interested parties, and other "TBD" statuses are not considered confirmed and do not indicate an animal is no longer urgent. All animals at ACCT Philly are from Philadelphia, as the only open-intake animal shelter in Philadelphia, we are not able to accept animals from outside of Philadelphia.
