Joel is all puppy energy and personality—a medium-sized Labrador Retriever/mixed breed with a big, expressive face and a spark in his eye. He’s that rare kind of dog who can look mischievous and heart-meltingly sweet at the same time. At this young age, everything is an adventure for Joel. Count on him to dart around the yard, investigate every scent, and treat every moment with you as something exciting. He’s the type to bring laughter just by existing. Joel thrives on attention, affection, and play. There’s nothing reserved about him—he’s affectionate, quick to trust, and always eager for cuddles or a game of tug. As a baby dog, he’ll need gentle guidance, structure, and a family ready to invest in training. Every day with Joel means a warm welcome home and a new story to tell. He’s currently with a rescue in La Harpe, KS, waiting to turn your house into a home filled with joy. Click apply to start the adoption process.
