Phoebe is a 6 yr old Akita/Boxer mix. She's extremely loving, sweet and playful. She loves running around in a fenced in backyard, shes great during car rides and she loves people and attention. She likes lounging around in the house during the day, but will play with you whenever youre up for it! Shes amazing with kids. She's been in a house with a newborn all the way up to a 4yr old now. And she let's our daughter play with her, dress her up, pet her, hug her, everything. She loves it haha. She's very healthy and up to date on all her vaccines. She has never had any health problems. We are looking for a good home for her where she can get all the love and attention she deserves.
