If you’re interested, tips and tricks for integrating her into your home are available! 🐶❤️ Joy has yet to see the wonders of the world, and boy, does she have a wish list! From sniffy walks that make her tail wag like a metronome to adventures that would make Indiana Jones envious, she’s dreaming big. 🥳 But it doesn’t stop there: imagine her embarking on dog school, where she can show off just how smart she is! With a wagging tail and those big, expressive eyes, she'll charm her way into your heart. And when the day winds down, Joy looks forward to those precious moments of cuddling, belly rubs, and curling up in her cozy dog bed after a day of fun. 💤 Most importantly, Joy is on the lookout for a safe haven filled with love. In return, she promises to shower her forever humans with adoring gazes, countless tail wags, and unwavering loyalty. Is Joy the living ball of joy you can envision at your side? She’s ready to make your life a whole lot brighter! Currently living at a South Carolina shelter, Joy needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to embark on her new journey.
