JOY

Description

Name: Joy Sex: Female Estimated Age: About 7 months old (as of 5/15) Best Guess for Breed: Lab Mix Weight: About 40 lbs (as of 5/15) Lives With: Dogs and people! Housebroken? Yes, she’s potty trained. Story: Joy and her brother Kringle were rescued from a shelter in North Carolina. We are so happy to have them safe and sound in a foster home in the DC area now. Joy is equal parts playful and snuggly, and has dangerously effective puppy eyes. She is potty trained and even in a new space, knew to sit at the door to let us know she needed to go potty. She willingly waltzes into her crate, but she does prefer to be somewhere near her people. She is pretty good at settling down by herself. She is quickly learning the do’s and don’ts of puppy life, so when she attempts to chew something she shouldn’t, a quick correction sets her back on track. She knows how to sit and we are working on “paw” and “drop it”. When she meets new people, she has the most perfect wiggle I’ve ever witnessed… it’s how she’s earned the nickname “Noodle”! She’s good in the car, and great on leash - curious but smart enough to observe new surroundings before diving in. She hasn’t been exposed to cats yet.  The fee to adopt Joy is $475. That covers the cost of all her vaccines, the collar she’s wearing, her transport to DC and her care in her foster home. She’s up to date on all age appropriate vaccines.
