Meet Phoenix, a 1-and-a-half-year-old boy weighing in at 70ish pounds. Phoenix came into the shelter super scared, but he has warmed up nicely! He has such a goofy personality, he loves to play with all the toys and give kisses. Phoenix walks well on a leash, he just needs a little more confidence but would love to go on nice walks with you! He does have occasional accidents here at the shelter but with a consistent schedule he should pick up on it quickly. Phoenix is also treat motivated so training should be a breeze. Phoenix was nominated for a contest hosted by local dog rescue and training facility, Big Paws of the Ozarks and won a FREE basic obedience package, so whoever adopts him will get this amazing gift! He`s super smart and already knows sit and shake! He does well with other dogs, and with a proper introduction might adjust to living with cats. While he love the ladies, other people can sometimes startle him. Once he loves though, then he loves deeply. So come meet him today and you won’t regret it! **Someone kind has sponsored my adoption fee so I am free to an approved home!
