Hello! I'm Phoebe the happy, low-maintenance, outdoor-loving dog you've been looking for. I love going on walks and exploring the area and while I don't love too much puppy energy, I'm always excited to meet new people and their dogs! Did I mention I'm pretty easygoing? I'm happy to adjust my schedule to match yours and I'm pretty good at entertaining myself if you're busy or gone out. I can happily spend my time going between tearing up my stuffed toys to napping in my crate until you're ready to hang out. As a bonus, I'm completely house-trained, crate-trained, and not destructive in the least. You can leave me home alone in or out of the crate and not have to worry at all!
I spent a lot of my life being pregnant and becoming a momma and thus have a very nurturing and a little overprotective nature. Sometimes it takes me a bit longer to accept a new person until I feel safe around them, but if you give me some time and lots of treats, we'll soon be friends forever! Fortunately, in my previous life, I was very well-trained. I have great recall and I know all my basic commands including sit, paw, and even go to bed. I love showing off my skills or learning new ones if it means I get treats! More importantly, since I'm pretty calm and don't tend to jump, I'm known to be great around children of all ages. I would just prefer a slow controlled introduction at the beginning to make sure our energy levels match. Oh, one more thing I need to tell you is that I LOVE car rides! I'm pretty great when it comes to getting in the car but you should probably seatbelt me, or I'll find my way into the front seat to hang out with you while you're driving.
I currently live in downtown Toronto. I don't mind the noise or city life and fortunately, there aren't too many things that scare me. I am hoping, however, to find a home with a backyard or access to a green space very close to home. I would be okay as an only dog or in a home with another low or medium-energy dog. I don't mind if you have to go to work every day and leave me home or if you prefer I sleep in my crate while you're gone, as long as you're willing to go outside with me a few times a day and once in a while invite me to snuggle up and nap or watch a movie with you. In return, I promise to love you unconditionally, always and forever! I hope we're a match because I can't wait to meet you!
