From the Foster:

Pharah is a sweet, loving, energetic and playful dog! She does well with other dogs, though may be too much for small dogs (and cats) because she gets so excited. She is potty-trained, very good about asking to be let outside to potty, we’ve only had a few accidents. Pharah should not go to a home with small children, as she gets so excited and happy to see them she jumps on them and knocks them over. Children aged 10+ who are familiar with dogs should be fine. Pharah needs a home with a yard, and preferably a yard which is fenced.

Pharah needs an active home with someone who is willing and able to walk her lots. She does best on a front-clip harness for walks. Pharah would also do best with someone who is dog savvy, as she is still working on her manners. She is a puppy at heart!

Pharah loves to be with her people and doesn’t like to be left alone. If she will need to be left alone regularly, her family will need to be dedicated to finding a training solution to make that work for her. Right now she does not like to be left alone in her crate and will potty while in there.

Pharah loves to play. Pharah also really loves to have her head on you while she’s chewing on a toy. She loves to play tug, and does really good at fetch (until she decides she’s done with it and then she just walks away). She is learning how to sit and lay down on command, and we are also working on her coming when called.

She is a sweet, loving bundle of puppy joy just looking for the right family to call hers forever!
