Hi there! I'm Phineas and I'm a 5 year young, 91lbs German Shepherd mix.

- I am a cuddly sweet big boy! I love being around my people and laying beside them.

- I love my walks and am great in the car. I am also fully potty trained, and respond very well to a stern NO when I do something you don't like.

- I can get overprotective of what I believe to be mine. I'm now great with the other dog I'm fostered with but am a little reactive to stranger danger when I feel I need to be. I find people who know this from the beginning and work on my socializing skills are best to be my pack leader!

- My foster sibling has helped me a lot with my anxiety, and I would do well with a big dog in the home. The small ones I'd probably just step on.

- I am a sweet boy and very strong because of my size, so I would need an adopter who can hold tight onto my leash while continuing my leash training.

- Medium energy level here! I am really active when I'm outside but am also equally happy to lay on my bed inside during the day.

- My hips don't lie...about having arthritis. I'm good for walks but I do have a little limp that will always be with me. I take a little medication daily and once a month injections to help!

- I'm a big cute clumsy potato that's so ready for my forever home
