About Joker! Needs A Special

Joker is an 8-year-old small Pomeranian mix who’s come through a tough past and is finally settling into the good life. He grew up largely ignored and spending too much time crated, so he’s just starting to learn that people can be gentle. Joker is a bit shy at first, especially around new faces, but give him time and he warms up to reveal a gentle, loving side. He’s neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and crate-trained. Joker is easy around cats, dogs of any size, and does well with kids. He likes to find his own comfortable corner—maybe on your bed, under it, or a soft couch—so don’t expect a velcro dog, but he’ll make a steady companion. He doesn’t care for being picked up, but otherwise has a sweet, undemanding nature. Joker lives in Russiaville, IN, and is waiting for a calm, patient adopter to help him continue this journey.
