Phoebe D5733

My story

Poor Phoebe was at the shelter for about 2 months and her time was up there. She was nervous and scared in their shelter cages of all the loud barking dogs and noises. Once out in the office she relaxed and seeked cuddling from staff lady. Very sweet and gentle. Tested fine with other shelter dogs. She did fine with our transporter and vet office. Cuddled with our volunteer transporter. At her foster home she first hid but her foster home walked in she ran out of hiding into her arms. She is now very happy and feels safe. Princess Phoebe. So cute. More info. and photos to come as she relaxes at her foster home with 3 other dogs. 5/3/25 update from Foster Home: 1 week. Phoebe is affectionate and sweet at their home. Now that she is relaxed she is bolder and wil guard her food bowl or chew and person to foster home's other 3 dogs especially their female bull dog (will attack her) but fine with 5 lbs female chi. Need to feed in sep area and train her to wait her turn. Must learn to wait for her food or she may try to grab person's food. She enjoys walks and cuddly sweet with person. She does fine hanging out with their male dobie and napping on sofa with him. Phoebe needs to be the only dog in home or fine with larger male dog. Phoebe now seems to be a dominate female dog and more assertive to other female dogs. With her personality need experienced adult home. No kids. She has learned to go out to yard for potty biz. After 1 1/2 weeks she is now friendly with men and men friends that visited. Seeks attention. Now almost leash trained.May 14, 2025, 1:12 am
