Adoption Update: Phoebe!!


Hello, Sarah!


Phoebe will celebrate the second anniversary of her "Got Day" and her fifth birthday on April 14.

She has made tremendous strides in developing social skills and self-confidence, having passed to CGC level of clicker-training obedience class. She's learned numerous tricks and is highly food motivated. She enjoys long walks and hikes in the city and country, especially when topped off with a visit to her favorite neighborhood pet shops. She's expanded the repertoire of toys she plays with and shows a mischievous streak in her games. We hope to enroll her in a fun agility class this spring. We're still working on resource-guarding issues (with me as the resource) and shyness around some new people.


On a sadder note, we had to send Abraham (14+year-old BC mix and Annie's soulmate) to cross Rainbow Bridge. If you have a young or adult sweet-natured, medium or large male who enjoys walking, hiking and cuddling and who you think would do well with Phoebe and her quirks, please let us know.


Regards,


Maureen and Victor
