Phil is a 1.5 year old pittie mix, with the goofiest personality. He was originally adopted out as a puppy but a year later his owners dropped him off at a shelter saying they no longer wanted him. Luckily, we were contacted and able to bring him back into our care - he is now thriving and ready to find his family! Even though he had a rough start at life, he is still the happiest and sweetest boy. He LOVES kisses and snuggles, all you need to do in kneel down and he's right there!
Some fun facts about Phil:
·Knows sit, shake, easy, stay (this is a newer command that he is working to master) and down.
·Walks great on a martingale collar, but even on a flat collar he does okay
·Phil is child friendly! He's currently living with an infant in his foster home and doing great so he may do well with an infant that he can grow with, but not suggesting toddler right away. He has tested very well with toddlers but in the home, they may be too unpredictable for him right off the bat. He does amazing with older kids that understand boundaries (no hugging or sneaking up on him).
·No cats/small animals
·Phil is a high energy boy, who would love dog siblings that match his energy to play with!
·Corrects well from other dogs
·Prefers mental stimulation over walks
·Needs help learning manners, his original adopters didn't give him structure so he will need consistency and patience. He's improved with his manners SO much the last few months !
·Crate trained
·He will do best in a single family home (no apartments), as he needs a yard to burn energy.
·Potty Trained
·Available for Foster-to-Adopt, and our Featured Fur Friend (adoption fee is only $50)
