Meet Phillip
Meet Phillip, the 50-pound Staffy mix who's mastered the art of flinging plushie toys with the grace of an Olympic discus thrower. This guy lives for toy time, and his love for play is only rivaled by his love for snuggles—especially after he's aced bath time like the superstar he is!
Now, Phillip might come off as a bit shy at first, but don’t let that fool you. This big-hearted pup is just working on finding his voice and building up that self-confidence. He’s getting better every day, and his leash manners are coming along nicely. Sure, he might try to take you on a walk instead of the other way around, but with a little patience and a few well-timed stops, Phillip quickly gets back on track.
Phillip’s got the social skills to get along with other dogs, big or small. He’s had playdates with pups his size and even a Pyrenees puppy, proving he’s got the charm to win over just about anyone. When it comes to humans, Phillip is good with men and women, but he's still figuring out the whole "humans raising their hands" thing—he’s not a fan. But hey, who can blame him? We suspect he’s had some rough experiences, so he’s learning that hands can be for pets, not threats.
This sweet boy has a moderate to high energy level, so he’s not just a couch potato—though he’ll definitely enjoy some downtime with you. Phillip needs his daily dose of exercise and mental challenges, whether it’s a long walk or some puzzle toys to keep that sharp mind busy. And while he’s crate-trained and doesn’t dig, let’s just say he’s got a strong relationship with his chew toys—supervised play is a must!
Phillip knows how to sit, but when treats are involved, his enthusiasm sometimes gets the best of him. We’re working on it, and he’s making great progress. He just needs a home that understands he’s a work in progress, and with a little love and a lot of patience, he’s going to be your most loyal sidekick.
Phillip is looking for a home that will give him the space to continue growing into the confident, happy dog he’s destined to be. Ready to bring this shy but sweet toy-flinging, bath-loving boy into your life? Phillip’s waiting for you to show him that forever is a real thing!
