Meet Joel, a standout medium-sized mixed breed dog in Bedford, IN, who's all about fun and affection. At 6 years and 4 months old, Joel is past the puppy phase but still brings plenty of spirit—make no mistake, this boy wakes up with a tail wag that could brighten anyone’s day. His golden and cream coat is inviting, especially if you’re the type who likes to dish out belly rubs. Joel thrives on human companionship, and his playful, social energy fills the room without ever feeling overwhelming. Joel is not yet house trained, so he’ll need someone with patience and a sense of humor as he learns the ropes. Vaccinations are already taken care of. He’s looking for a home that appreciates both cuddles on the couch and a daily dose of morning zoomies around the yard. Joel is new here, so more details will be coming soon—but already, it’s clear he’s ready to be someone’s loyal friend. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
