A great dog that needs a good home, I live in an apartment complex and the space just isnt big enough for a big dog like him. We have a cat and he plays too rough with him. Great dog altogether!

Story
Dog's Name: Phoenix Gender: Male Current Age: 15 months Current Weight: 50 lbs. as of Aug. 1 Breed: German Shepherd Energy Level: Medium-High Dog Friendly: Unknown. The neighbor’s dog greets him through the fence, and there is only tails wagging. Cat Friendly: Unknown Kids: Unknown Apartment Friendly: No Fence Requirements: Physical fence preferred but not required with regular walks/exercise. Crate Trained: Yes Potty Trained: Yes Ideal Home / Adopter: Phoenix would do best with an adopter who can give him plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. He loves spending time outside and watching the world go by, He walks well on a leash and is building confidence in unfamiliar surroundings. Phoenix is comfortable spending time in his crate, making him a nice match for someone who appreciates a dog who enjoys companionship without needing to be by their side every minute. When faced with storms, while not his favorite, he puts himself in his kennel and calmly stays there until the storm passes. Likes: Loves to collect sticks. Currently, his favorite toy is a squeaky ball. While he behaves, he is working on manners, and he loves to be “chased” when he is being coaxed to come in. He seems to be independent in that he is not a Velcro dog. One of his favorite antics is taking his toys outside until there are none left in the house. He also likes to announce his presence to the world when going outside. Dislikes: None He prefers the floor over furniture. He does not surf the counters and expects you to keep his water bowl full at all times. He makes a game of coming into the house before he is ready, and his foster swears he has a grin on his face when they’re trying to coax him in. Phoenix is an independent, playful guy who loves collecting sticks, carrying his toys outside, and keeping an eye on the world around him. He’s come a long way in foster care and is learning to enjoy affection more each day. His goofy “catch me if you can” game when it’s time to come inside is just part of his charm. All fees include spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations, deworming, and the dog will be current on flea, tick, and heartworm preventatives. All dogs over 6 months of age have been tested and are heartworm negative. ##2733996##
