About Joey

15 weeks old • Lab mix • Parvo survivor • Professional yapper • Certified cuddle addict Meet — proof that you do NOT need brain cells to be loved. ❤️ Joey survived parvo, but unfortunately the recovery process did not include downloading critical thinking skills. This boy has exactly one thought at any given moment and it’s usually: “what if I sat directly on top of you?” 🧠 Intelligence level: • Eats first, asks questions never • Frequently forgets what he was doing mid-chaos • Will absolutely sprint into a wall if excitement is involved • Thinks showers are a group activity • Has personal beef with silence But what Joey LACKS in common sense, he MORE than makes up for in love. This puppy is ridiculously affectionate, endlessly happy, and genuinely one of the sweetest little dudes ever. ✨ Joey Starter Pack ✨ 🐾 15 weeks old ⚖️ 19lbs 🦴 Lab mix 💪 Parvo survivor 🐶 Dog friendly 🐱 Cat friendly 👧 Kid friendly 🛁 Shower supervisor 🗣️ Extremely talkative ❤️ Stage 5 cuddler 📎 Certified velcro puppy 🏡 Ideal home: A work from home girl that will baby him excessively so they can gossip about drama, get emotional support Starbucks together, and spend every waking moment attached at the hip. Bonus points if you’re willing to let him supervise your showers and participate in absolutely none of your personal boundaries. He wants to be involved in EVERYTHING you do. Cooking? He’s there. Bathroom trip? Absolutely there. Shower? Already inside before you are. Joey is looking for a family that appreciates a sweet, goofy puppy with the survival instincts of a paper towel but the heart of an angel. ❤️ If you’re looking for a smart dog… Joey would like to respectfully suggest lowering your standards. But if you want a hilarious best friend that will love you with his entire empty little head, Joey is your guy. ************************************ Joey is located in a foster home. We are happy to coordinate a meet & greet for pre-approved adopters. To get started, please submit an adoption application at www.jasperslegacy.org/apply-to-adopt Adoption process: Potential adopters complete our online application. From there, we contact them to continue the screening process including checking references, vet checks, and a personal phone interview. Upon completion, potential adopters are pre-approved. From there, potential adopters are put in touch with the foster parent(s) of the dog they are interested in adopting. If a specific dog is not in mind, admins will make suggestions based on who we feel will be good candidates for their home. We take the foster's opinions into high consideration when determining ideal fit for an adoption. Once the dog is determined to be a good fit for the adoptive home, the adopter is given advisement on decompression, training, safety gear, and future preventative vetting. The adoption contract is signed and adoption fee paid to finalize the adoption.
