A Note from the Foster: Hello! I would love to introduce you to Phil.
Phil is a five month old Havanese. He came from a life of no human contact so he is learning each and every single day just how wonderful life can be while not in a kennel all day. Because of his background he does not want to be touched, and snuggled just yet, but I know it won't be long because of his big personality.
Phil is so observant and just a little shadow. He always wants to know what is going on and see what is happening. He lays at my feet when I work or sit, and follows me wherever I go....unless he trying to get into mischief. He loves to play with the other foster puppy in the house, and also loves the big resident lab. The cats are no problem for him either, he is interested in them, but never pursues or chases them. Toys are his all time favorite. He is rarely ever without one with him. He makes sure that they never have to stay in the kennel without him, he takes them all out each time. He isn't a big fan of his kennel, he doesn't bark, but likes to dig and mess up his blankets, but no accidents in there. He sleeps all night without a break and knows in the morning to go out for his business.
He is very soulful. His eyes are so gentle and inquisitive, his nose adorable and even though he probably needs a haircut soon, you can still see how very handsome he is. He is happy, healthy, cute as ever and would love to have a home where he can finally trust and love forever.
Adoption Fee: Our adoption fees typically vary from $510-$1260 + tax. Our coordinator will be in touch with you with specific information during the application processing. For more information on where our animals come from, here is some additional information. Thank you!
Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
