Five years old and weighing in just under 65 pounds, Phil is a friendly and energetic Staffy/bully mix who will bring a lively and loving energy to your house. His gorgeous brindle coat and mismatched ears always draw attention! We originally adopted him in 2020, but the shelter did not know much about his life before he arrived. Since then, he’s grown into a friendly and steady companion. At this time he is up to date on all of his vaccines and regular pest medication.
Unfortunately, we are unable to keep this sweet boy because he is very much a people dog and he has trouble adjusting to the other animals we’ve brought into our house. His ideal home would have him absorbing all of his family’s undivided love, with regular time outside for brisk walks and sunbathing. He loves people and making new human friends is always the highlight of his day; so much so that he sometimes needs a reminder to calm down and remember his manners.
Crate trained, housebroken, and well behaved on a leash, he makes for an excellent walking companion and can even be taken to patio restaurants without issue so long as he remains on leash! On leash, he has no problems walking by other dogs, cats, and squirrels. He’s down for car rides and couch naps anytime, and is likely to use you as a pillow. If you have a fenced backyard he will LOVE to play fetch or chase a flirt pole until he’s happily worn out.
Phil is an amazing dog that just needs the right home, as much as we wish that home could be ours. Apply today to give him that home!
