    Meet Kculli: Hockey & Hounds with John Tortorella

    Meet Kculli: Hockey & Hounds with John Tortorella

    Jason Myrtetus concludes the 2023-24 Hockey & Hounds season with Flyers head coach John Tortorella as they discuss the upcoming do-or-die end of the regular season. We also meet Kculli, a survivor of a dogfighting ring who was rescued by the PSPCA in November of 2021 along with 32 other dogs. The majority of these pups have found homes, but Kculli and three other are still waiting. There is nothing wrong with this sweet girl, despite her horrific past. She is a bit shy at first, but she opens up quickly and just LOVES people. She can live with kids, but not other animals.

    Meet Harriett III - Hockey & Hounds with John Tortorella

    Meet Harriett III - Hockey & Hounds with John Tortorella

    Jason Myrtetus is joined by Flyers head coach John Tortorella to discuss the team's current situation as they fight for a playoff spot. We also revisit Harriett, a previously featured Hockey & Hounds star still searching for a home. Harriet is the most playful and snuggly girl of your dreams. One of her previous foster parents coined the nickname "Miss Rolly-Polly" for her because after a few moments of pets or scratches she'll lean all ~50+ lbs of her body weight into your legs before flopping onto the floor, with her legs fully splayed into the air and all.

    Meet Dakota: Hockey & Hounds

    Meet Dakota: Hockey & Hounds

    Flyers head coach John Tortorella checks in on current events with Jason Myrtetus, and we meet Daktota, a Siberian Husky who came to the PSPCA with severe eye issues that required their removal. Despite her past, Dakota remains incredibly sweet with her personality shining more and more each day. Dakota is very smart and what she lacks in sight, she makes up for in her hearing and sniff skills! She knows sit and shake. She is very affectionate to handlers especially when they follow her training plan. Dakota is looking for a home that will continue her training and learning. She is open to dog meets. She is looking for a family who can help support these needs.

    Meet Luke Wilson: Hockey & Hounds

    Meet Luke Wilson: Hockey & Hounds

    On the latest Hockey and Hounds Podcast, Torts and Jason discuss the commencement of the April playoff push and are trying to find 'Luke Wilson' a forever home. Luke is an incredibly sweet, and cuddly pal. Understandably, he's been a little cautious and nervous, but as he's opened up his more goofy, and spontaneous side has emerged and we are just loving his zest for life! He even tends to nudge, rub or plop his cute snoot on you to initiate snuggles. Luke is also very sniff-oriented so he'd love to find companion(s) that like to venture into nature so he can enjoy all the interesting smells the world has to offer! He knows the commands "sit" and "stay", but is very eager to please his humans and would be able to pick up more tricks with continued training.

    If you're interested in a spunky and affectionate companion, Luke Wilson just might be your perfect match! Visit PhillyPaws.org for more information.

    Meet August: Hockey & Hounds

    Meet August: Hockey & Hounds

    On the latest Hockey & Hounds Podcast, Torts and Jason discuss the playoff push and are finding August, a terrier/pit mix a forever home. August is probably the goofiest, silliest, sweetest dog you will ever meet. He has lots of smarts and like to show off how to "sit" and give "paw". August is a big fan of treats, and toys. He also prefers when people introduce themselves to me with a whole bag of treats, because I deserve it! August would make a snuggly and happy companion for any lucky family. Learn more about August at pspca.org.

    Meet Harriet II: Hockey & Hounds

    Meet Harriet II: Hockey & Hounds

    Torts and Jason are back together and discussing the March gauntlet of games ahead, post-trade deadline and are finding Harriet a forever home. Harriet is the most playful and snuggly girl of your dreams. One of her previous foster parents coined the nickname "Miss Rolly-Polly" for her because after a few moments
    of pets or scratches she'll lean all 50lbs. of her body weight into your legs before flopping onto the floor.We think Harriet would prefer a home without a cat friend, but could do well with another playful dog in the home! Any adopter with resident pups that have a zest for life and passion for playtime could definitely be a great match for her. Learn more about Harriet at phillypaws.org/adopt!
