My story

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

Phoenix is a shy but happy boy who enjoys going for walks and cuddling up in his dog bed. He is about 50lbs and 2.5 years old. Having come in as a stray originally by animal control, he has had quite the glow up over these last few months. From being riddled with mange and skin infections that caused constant itching, to a handsome and dapper guy, Phoenix is just as his name describes! He has an endearing smile and truly loves his people. In his temporary foster home he enjoyed lounging in his bed or the couch, trying new snacks, and soaking up any attention he could get. He appears to be quite the ladies man, preferring the company of women over men. He is not the most confident dogs and new things sometimes scare him but he will willingly jump in the car with you and go on adventure... you just have to take the wheel for him. Phoenix would thrive in a home with structure and routine as well as low foot traffic. He really is a sweet boy and definitely a shelter favorite (shhh, don't tell the others!) he just needs a chance. To adopt Phoenix please apply here --> www.easelnj.org/application-dog/ Adoption by appointment only with an approved adoption application.
