My story

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

Hi, I am Phoenix! The LASPCA named me Fire but my foster mom has renamed me Phoenix to represent my bright and happy future. I am a male terrier/pit bull who is about 1 year and 1 month old. I am 37 pounds of love! The humans are not sure how I got the burns on my back- they could be a fire or chemical burn or from exposure to the sun from my time on the streets.

I have some puppy energy! I looove to play with toys and get cuddles and be my human's shadow! I think I'm still a tiny baby! My tail is always wagging and I'm so joyous.

I seem to be somewhat house trained. I like to relax on the couch. I would love to sleep on the bed but my foster mom has a dog bed next to hers and I'm happy sleeping there.

If you are interested in adopting Phoenix, please email foster@laspca.org.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The LA/SPCA pet adoption process includes meeting with a matchmaker to match your lifestyle with the perfect companion. You will spend time with any of the pets you think would be a great companion. You may even want to come back another day to make sure he is the one! All of our animals must be spayed or neutered before you can take them home. Sometimes your perfect companion has not had this procedure done, so please be patient with us if you have to come back to pick him up.



All of our animals have been spayed or neutered before they are released for adoption. We encourage anyone with animals to spay or neuter their pets.

Go meet their pets

Information about adoption, including offsite adoption events, can be found on the LA/SPCA's website at
