Say hello to the fiery Phoenix! This sweet older girl loves to play with dog friends, cuddling and getting pets from her human friends, and tasy treats. Phoenix is a bit reserved at first, but warms up quickly and is looking for a patient family who can give this sensitive girl some time to decompress in their new home. Phoenix enjoys a good walk like any dog, but definitely likes to settle in at the end of the day on the couch.
Our sweet friend Phoenix has a kidney condition that will require an ongoing relationship with a veterinarian. She is currently eating a prescription diet and medicated for her condition, and her long-term treatment plan as well as prognosis can be determined with your primary vet!
Phoenix has a positive history with kids, so she may go home to kids that can participate in her training and let her warm up at her own pace. Phoenix has enjoyed spending time around other mellow dogs at the shelter, so we think they may do well with a canine sibling that is comfortable with a more calm friend. Phoenix has never met a cat before, but may do well with a dog-savvy cat in the home.
Stop by our Cape Cod Adoption Center to meet Phoenix. We have open adoption hours Tuesday-Sunday from 1pm-4pm - no appointment needed to speak to a staff person regarding available pets.

Please note, in an effort to keep the stress levels reduced for the dogs in our care, our dog kennel areas will not be open to walk through. Interested adopters will work with a matchmaker on staff to determine which dog(s) they are interested in and if we can identify a match, potential adopters will be able to meet those dogs outside of the kennel. Cat and small animal areas will remain open to walk through.
Your gift now will help us provide the love, care and support animals like Phoenix need while waiting for a loving family. You can also send words of encouragement for Phoenix, that we may read out loud to them on our social media channels
