My story

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

Bureau of Dog Law Enforcement—Kennel License #2617
**Due to Phoebe needing spayed, her adoption will not be finalized until on or after: TBD

Could she do well with kids? Yes, with children around 10 years old, on a kid-by-kid basis.

Could she do well with other dogs? Yes, on a dog-by-dog basis.

Has this dog lived with cats? No. [The Lycoming County SPCA does not “cat test” dogs per the Association of Shelter Veterinarian’s Guidelines for Standards of Care in Animal Shelters.]

Condensed Staff Assessment Notes: Phoebe is a young, energetic dog seeking affection but unsure how to express her needs. With the deep snow on the property, we couldn`t take her far for walks, and she displayed poor leash manners by pulling. Indoors, Phoebe was curious about exploring but frequently returned to my side. While she allowed husbandry handling, she would sometimes walk away during the process, although she did come back when called.

Phoebe was stable around everyday objects and noises and enjoyed playing with me, but she showed little interest in toys. Although cautious with new people, she became overly excited around other dogs, provoking mixed reactions from them, ranging from avoidance to tolerance of her interacting with them.
