Meet Phoebe

Phoebe is a Border Collie mix who is being re-homed by her owners due to her reactivity to another dog in the household, and the concerns of the owners that such behavior could increase. Her owners have had Phoebe for 8 years and are hoping to find a home for her where she is the only dog in the home. The owners will update Phoebe's rabies vaccination and test her for heartworm before placing her in a new home. Her owners describe Phoebe this way: "Phoebe is a beautiful collie. She is very sweet to people but does have random aggression towards our smaller dog. She would be an amazing only dog. She does great with our cat. She loves to run around so she prefers a fenced in yard." If you want to know more about Phoebe or arrange to meet her, please contact her owners at this email: Ahadley020114@icloud.com
