About Phoenix

Meet Phoenix, a 2-year-old Treeing Walker Coonhound with a heart of gold and a story that will inspire you. Weighing around 60-65 pounds, he has faced many challenges, including finding himself on the euthanasia list in North Carolina and overcoming an intestinal tumor along with heartworm disease.

While Phoenix thrives in the company of other dogs, he does require a cat-free home to ensure peace for all. Located in Monroe, NC, Phoenix is keen to find his forever family.
