True to her name, Moxxy is bursting with energy and personality! This excitable gal greets you with full-body wiggles and toe taps, thrilled to make a new friend. She’s a social butterfly who loves interacting with people and is always ready to bring some fun to your day.
Moxxy is very handler-oriented and adores attention, often leaning in for pets, hopping into laps, and darting between her humans for cuddles. She’s food-motivated and knows “sit,” though she can be a bit snatchy, so offering treats with an open palm works best.
If you’re looking for a playful, goofy pup who’s all heart and energy, Moxxy is ready to wiggle her way into your life and your heart. Come meet her and see why she’s impossible to resist!
Eligible for rescue, foster, and adoption. Meet Moxxy at ACCT Philly any day of the week from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. or email foster@acctphilly.org to express interest in fostering her.

Behavior notes:
Per Volunteer 1/25/25: Moxxy is a super wiggly Mama! She greeted me with a very loose wiggly body, she was jumping up as I tried to leash her so it took a few tries to leash. She was very jumpy while walking and leaving the shelter. Seems like she was just very excited. In the yard she’s a whole bunch of fun! She loves to romp and chase toys. She is pretty jumpy but really just wants to get love from you. Take pets all over. Gives me kisses. Got a little overstimulated when jumping up and started to leash bite for a second, then I had her do sit and she calmed down. Got a bit mouthy with my walkie-talkie when she got excited. Very loving girl just very hyper! Just needs some training on jumpiness. No issues returning to kennel
Per volunteer 1/24: Moxxy is a doll! She was so excited to be on a day trip. She is a bit jumpy but she’s just excited to go. She just needs some basic manners but really good with walking on the leash. Gentle pulling but manageable. Really sweet and wants to be next to you

HANDLING :
In the room Moxxy was very wiggly and social. He is very handler oriented and was doing toe taps and full body wiggles in the room, interacting with us. She allowed all over handling and was very goofy and would lean in for pets, hop up on our laps and dart back and forth between us. She was very foo motivated and showed knowledge of sit, but could be snatchy so using an open palm is best!
