Meet Rushlight, a handsome, friendly fellow with a beautiful white coat and a heart of gold! This Mixed Breed boy is ready to find his forever home. Rushlight is an independent soul who enjoys exploring the world around him. He walks nicely on a leash, although exciting smells might tempt him to pull a little! He's quite the sniffer and enjoys taking his time to investigate his surroundings. While he might seem a little aloof at first, once he gets to know you, he'll warm up and enjoy gentle pets. Squeaky toys definitely get his attention, and he might even chase after them! Rushlight is now available for adoption at ACCT Philly- you can meet him any day from 10am-6pm! Video: Petting Rushlight: https://youtu.be/F-GGyGwUIvQ Additional Notes: 10/12/2025: Kennel Presentation: When I approached his kennel, he was facing the other direction and doing a bit of a howl/whine. I called him over and he immediately got quiet and came to the front of the kennel and I easily looped his head with the leash. Leash Skills: He hopped right out and has a very low gait, almost crouching as he walks out. He walks nicely on leash then when he gets whiff of a smell he wants he pulls to get there and stay there. Sociability: Waited until we got outside to do poop and pee. Spent the first several minutes in the play yard, sniffing around and didn't pay much attention to me. He sniffed my hotdogs and then didn't take them. Very aloof in the play yard for the first half. After several minutes, he was more interested in me and came over to sniff me out. He took pets from me and was interested in sniffing my treats however he never took them. His belly is upset so maybe just not in the mood for hotdogs. Play: Pretty interested in squeaky toys and they definitely get his attention. he will chase after them and didn't seem to fetch them back. Dog Interaction: No face to face meets today: He did well walking by another dog and calmly walked by, then when we walked by again the other dog started snarling and lunging through the fence, and Rushlight started to hard bark and snarl back. Totally fine when other dogs walked by so was just reacting to the dog that was reactive to him. Return to Kennel: Needed some leash pressure to get back into his kennel then easily unleashed. Color Level: Giving gold- was aloof but easy with handling. Recommendations and considerations: ACCT Philly is located at 111 West Hunting Park Ave in Philadelphia.
