This handsome pup has a long body, short legs, and a big heart. Meet Phoenix! Hobbies include going for walks, sitting in laps, and standing up like a meercat.
He appears to be a dachshund mix, around 4 years old, and 15-20 lbs. He is still coming out of his shell but seems to be a total lap dog. Maybe over time he will blossom into a mischievous and stubborn boy if he really does have any dachshund in his blood! Gotta love that personality!
Phoenix would benefit from a quiet home with humans who are patient and loving. He would like to spend most of his time with his “pack” so he might enjoy being an office dog or just your go-everywhere-buddy. He would really rather not be left at home all day while you’re at work. He is friendly with other dogs of all sizes. He is friendly with all people, but as he is still adjusting to life after living in an overcrowded shelter, he would like for you to please go slow, and be patient if he takes a little while to warm up to you.
