Philip Basenji & Shiba Inu Mix Los Angeles, CA

A Dog's Life Rescue took in 2 puppies from a rescue group in Taiwan, where adoptive homes are extremely difficult to come by. We are now needing Foster or permanent homes for them asap! They are mixed breed Formosan dogs, a breed distinct to Taiwan.

Meet Phillip... Phillip is now about 7 months old and around 25 lbs. This sweet boy was found lying in a ditch with mud so caked onto his body it had become a second skin. He loves to play with other dogs and would be a fantastic 2nd dog for a household. He is submissive and really bonds to other dogs and just loves their company. He will still bond to the people in the home as well... he is very affectionate and enthusiastic with the people he knows. Phillip can also be quite the character... he makes us laugh because even though he's still afraid of new things you can tell he's a little adventurer at heart... he is shy with new people at first but once he's comfortable he wants to explore and play with new toys and new pups.

Phillip is still learning to trust people still and needs a safe, loving environment that will help him build his confidence and continue to socialize. If you are interested in adopting Phillip, Please contact us at alli@adogsliferescue.org
