Simon is a 10-month-old puppy and has until Thursday, Oct. 25, at 6 pm to get out of ACCT-Philly into a foster or adoptive home. He has been an incredible trooper, having lived at ACCT since August 1. He’s kept himself emotionally together, but now he has injured his knee and needs a place to go. Simon needs eight weeks of crate rest and lots of TLC to let his knee heal. Simon also needs a weight loss program–he sure hasn’t lost his appetite living at the shelter!

With weight loss and crate rest, Simon’s knee would probably heal on its own because he should only weigh about 37 lbs. Simon is a really smart dog who loves his people. Once his knee is healed, he’d do very well with an active family with older kids.

Simon says that cats are soooo great that he probably shouldn’t live with them. But he could live with another dog!

Could you be Simon’s savior and foster him? All medications and food will be supplied by ACCT-Philly and his Pen Pal, his special volunteer at the shelter, will supply a crate. All you need to provide is the warm comfy home and a dedication to saving his life.
