My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Hello, friends! My name is Phoenix and I am one of the most special pups at KGARL. When I arrived here, I was so thin and sick that they were afraid I was not going to make it. They have taken such good care of me and I am so excited to tell you that I am now ready to go to my FOREVER home!! I hit a few bumps along the way and it has taken a long time to get me healthy. I was treated for heartworms and the vet and the wonderful lady caring for me discovered that I have Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency, or EPI. What does this mean for my forever family? I will require special food and cannot eat anything else or I may get sick again. Also, I have to take medicine every day. I don’t mind, though, because I know it keeps me healthy and I feel SO much better.

I am a sweet, playful young man and with the proper care, they say I can live a long, happy and healthy life. I am so lucky that I was brought here and given a second chance. I get along well with other dogs and cats. I love to be scratched and cuddled and PLAY! I am housebroken and neutered, too!

I am anxiously awaiting a family of my very own and cannot wait to meet you! I have become a sort of mascot for KGARL and heard that I am pretty famous around here. They love me very much and are so proud of the progress I have made and they will miss me very much. I will be forever grateful to KGARL for saving me, but would love to have a family of my very own. I may come with a few more instructions and expenses than some dogs, but the love you will receive in return is priceless.

If you would like to add Phoenix to your home, please visit http://www.kgarl.org/info/adoption to learn about KGARL's adoption process, and to submit an adoption application.
