'Senior' Dog Set To Be Put Down In Philadelphia, Rescuers Sought

An older dog named Tyson is set to be put down on Friday, August 7 at 8 p.m. if a family is not found for him before then.

Described as a “laid back” senior dog, Tyson was abandoned by his first family in the street. A neighbor brought him to ACCT Philly (Animal Care and Control Team) instead.

Chester County Dog Tails described Tyson as: “super cute, extremely calm, very sweet,” and noted that he’d had several good interactions with others dogs.

Because Tyson has been timestamped for Friday, all potential rescuers are asked to email lifesaving@acctphilly.org immediately, and then head to the shelter.

ACCT is located on 111 West Hunting Park Avenue in Philadelphia.
