Phoebe is a sweet and loving 2.5-year-old pitbull terrier mix, weighing around 60 lbs. She has a great balance of puppy energy and the ability to relax, enjoying snuggle time on a lap or a cozy blanket. Phoebe loves to play, especially tug-of-war with sticks and toys, and she enjoys swimming and long-distance running. She's an athletic girl who thrives on activity and is looking for a partner to share her active lifestyle. Phoebe has received extensive training, including an hour of exercise daily, and she excels at commands and running alongside bikes or skates. She's also crate-trained and sleeps through the night.
Ideal Home
Phoebe would do best in a home with experienced owners who have a taste for exercise and appreciate a disciplined dog. She needs an active family that enjoys outdoor activities and daily exercise. A fenced backyard is a must. Phoebe cannot live with children or other dogs, especially territorial ones. Families should have an open mind about the needs of rescue animals and be prepared to offer protection and education.
Ongoing Health
Phoebe has undergone a comprehensive health protocol, including being spayed, vaccinated (DHPPI, Rabies, Bordetella), dewormed, and tested negative for heartworm. She also receives monthly flea, tick, and heartworm preventative. She has a health certificate.
Training & Support
Phoebe is a disciplined and athletic girl with excellent command recognition and is house and crate-trained. She has received professional training from Gray Wolf Canine Rehabilitation in Houston, TX, and her adopter will receive ongoing support and advice from her trainer.
