Meet Phoenix, a beautiful 3-month-old beautiful black-coated girl with a survivor’s spirit and a heart full of love.
Phoenix’s story started in the hardest way imaginable — she was found at just 2 days old after being thrown away in a dumpster. But this girl didn’t just survive… she rose. Bottle-fed from the beginning, Phoenix has grown into an incredibly personable, people-loving puppy who thinks humans are pretty much the best thing ever.
Phoenix’s DNA results show she is a unique mix with strong herding, guard, hound, and working dog roots. Her top breeds include German Shepherd Dog, American Pit Bull Terrier, Great Pyrenees, Catahoula Leopard Dog, Chow Chow, Lacy Dog, Australian Cattle Dog, Australian Shepherd, Siberian Husky, Labrador Retriever, and a few extra sprinkles of “one-of-a-kind.” Basically, she is part loyal guardian, part smartypants, part adventure buddy, and part oversized baby.
At just 3 months old, Phoenix is already almost 30 pounds, so she is expected to grow into a large dog. Her future family should be ready for a big, beautiful girl with an even bigger personality.
Phoenix gets along great with people and other dogs, and she is very curious about cats. She sleeps in her own bed every night like a big girl and has already learned that poop belongs outside. She is still working on the pee part of potty training, but she will use potty pads when they are available.
Phoenix is sweet, social, curious, and full of potential. After everything she has overcome, she deserves a family who will love her, guide her, and give her the forever home she was always meant to have.
Phoenix is ready to rise into her next chapter — could it be with you?

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
