About Joy

Joy was rescued from a tough spot in Philly and has fought through some real challenges, including a bad case of pneumonia and now being treated for focal seizures. Her diagnosis isn’t perfect, but she manages her condition with daily medication and regular care. Joy’s about 4–5 years old, house trained, spayed, current on vaccines, and microchipped. She had a touch of food guarding early on but has made a ton of progress, so a home with older children is best. Joy fits into a pack easily—she gets along with dogs and cats, loves meeting people, and never passes up a snuggle. She’s an affectionate, happy dog through it all, just looking for a family to call hers. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
