Scar Mufasa

Scar Mufasa is an adoptable male Pit Bull Terrier looking for a home at Philadelphia Animal Care and Control in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He is fully grown and medium in size. He is currently on the shelter's euthanasia list with just one day left, listed due to lack of space. Adopting Scar Mufasa, or even sharing his story, could save a life before it's too late.

Scar Mufasa ACCT-A-260757 is currently considered urgent and at risk of euthanasia due to length of stay and lack of space for incoming dogs. Scar Mufasa must have confirmed placement with an RESCUE PARTNER OR ADOPTER by SATURDAY, OCTOBER 10TH at 10AM. Should Scar Mufasa's medical or behavioral status change, their urgency and timeline for placement may also change. Due to being significantly overcapacity with animals and higher than usual intake, extensions are unlikely to be granted. If you are interested in an animal please contact ACCT Philly immediately. Due to limited space, timestamps may also be proceeded with early so it is imperative to let us know if you are considering adopting or tagging an animal. Meet Scar Mufasa (ACCT-A-260757)! This friendly and high-energy boy is looking for a new kingdom to call his own. His former family described him as a very friendly, playful pup who absolutely loves meeting new people. Scar Mufasa is a smart boy who already knows the \"sit\" command and walks very well on a leash. He is mostly house-trained and is currently working on his crate training skills. If you have a football, you'll be his best friend forever'they are his absolute favorite toys! In the shelter, Scar Mufasa has shown himself to be a sweet \"goofball\" who leans in for pets and affection. He has a wiggly body and a soft gaze when he greets you at his kennel door. Because he is young and enthusiastic, he can sometimes get a little jumpy when he's excited, but he is easily redirected with treats, which he takes very gently. He also loves to have something in his mouth, occasionally even carrying his leash around like a prize. Scar Mufasa would thrive in an active home with plenty of space where he can run, play, and show off his affectionate personality. If you're looking for a fun-loving companion who is ready to bond with the whole family, Scar Mufasa might be the perfect match for you! 📽️Videos📽️: Playgroup 10.3 Playgroup 9/11 Playgroup 9/10 Playgroup 9.9 ⭐Behavioral Notes⭐ Walk sheet notes: Scar Mufasa went to playgroup on 9/9 with mild leash issues, mild shyness, and moderate jumpiness, at high energy, good dog meet.
