Meet Java, a 1 1/2-year-old female Terrier mix who was returned to AFA when her family moved and couldn’t keep her. Java is a wonderful pup—extremely friendly and full of love for people. She adores it when staff spend time with her, happily curling up in their laps like she’s a tiny lap dog. She loves being petted, and if you stop before she’s ready, she’ll tap you with her paw or surprise you with kisses as if to say, “Hey, don’t stop!” Java’s personality is always cheerful, with a dash of goofiness. She enjoys walks and does fairly well on a leash, though she pulls a bit and could use some gentle guidance to make walks even better. Smart and eager to please, she’s quick to learn and ready for new adventures. With her high energy, Java will thrive in a home that can give her plenty of playtime and walks. She’s sure to bring endless joy and can’t wait to find a family to love. Interested in adopting?
