My personality

Why I need a new home

Human health issues (e.g. allergies, sickness)

My story

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


Phyllis and her brother Steve need a home that is better equipped for them than we are. They were rescued from a puppy mill and are incredibly sweet. They are great with our kids and love to be around people. However, they are sometimes fearful of men, which has created issues when my husband is caring for them on his own, and I am working full-time and have health issues that are making caring for them more difficult.

They are housetrained, but the female submissive pees with my husband (she doesn't do it with me or our children). The male will occasionally submissive pee with my husband, but not too often. They both know how to sit. The boy knows how to shake and lay down.

They are spayed and neutered, and their vaccines are up to date. They will be great additions to a family better equipped to care for them. We will consider rehoming them together or placing them in different homes.

They are OK with our cats, but they try to play with them, which annoys our cats.
