My story

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


Phoenix (20 months) is a classic Border Collie, royal with merle coat. Super playful, energetic, charming and good natured. We adopted him from his 1st owner 3 months ago (frequent work flights) and since had experienced lots of outdoors activity and socializing with other dogs. Phoenix is very submissive and fully trained. He is a real prince and our 2 y.o. feels very comfortable pulling on his ears and bossing him around. We decided to rehome him after an unfortunate event of redirected aggression towards a stranger, and us worrying for our 2 y.o. We believe he needs a better match with an experienced owner or a family with older kids.
