My story

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

"The moment everyone has been waiting for Phoenix is ready for a forever home. A little history behind Phoenix- she was one of the strays that were dumped out in Bitely that Mary Humphrey trapped. We gave her this name because we just knew she would rise from the ashes of her old life and become this beautiful dog. She is approx 6yrs old 55pounds. When she first came in she was very scared. Anytime staff came into the room she would shake in the corner and growl if you attempted to put a leash on her. We’re assuming whoever her previous humans were they most likely used her for breeding and she possibly treated unfairly. With a little time and patience Phoenix has risen and as confident as ever! She is a completely different dog. She now greets staff at her kennel and with proper introductions with new people she will walk up to you and lick your face! She seems like she wants to play with other dogs, and cats are unknown at this time. Due to her past it’s best if children in the home were older!" This is from Officer Carpentier.
The adoption fee for dogs is $90.
