My story

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

Phoebe is the sweetest, most friendly dog you'll ever meet. She will be 5 years old in May and is up to date on all her shots. She's some sort of terrier mix with basenji, we only got a partial dna test result. We love her so much but had to move from a house with a yard to an apartment last year. I have multiple sclerosis and it is getting harder and harder for me to walk her. She likes to go out often and I physically can't keep up with her. My daughter is autistic and can't handle walking her, and my son is in college and isn't home most of the time. I can continue walking her until we can find her the right home but its not sustainable for me. This is a terribly difficult decision to make and is heart breaking for me, but she needs to be in a home with a yard, or with someone willing and able to walk her. She's really such a good, sweet girl and I hate having to do this.
