About Phillip
Meet Phillip, the young mixed breed boy who has some Doberman Pinscher traits. At just 20 lbs, he’s a smaller package filled with potential. A good Samaritan found him as a stray, and understandably, he was a bit scared of his circumstances. After settling in, Phillip revealed his sweet personality and soft nature, endearing himself to the shelter staff. While he may not be confident on a leash yet, a patient, dog-savvy adopter can help him find his stride. A home with a securely fenced backyard would be ideal for his potty training. Phillip showed some interest in meeting another dog, indicating that a calm companion may suit him well after a proper introduction. He might also adjust to a home with cats given a gentle approach. Phillip is available for pre-adoption and will be ready to go home after his neuter surgery. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
