About Josie

Meet Josie, the perfect companion! She is undeniably gorgeous and has a lively spirit. This active girl knows basic commands like sit, stay, and heel, making her a smart addition to any home. Josie's playful side shines when she's fetching tennis balls or playing with toys. She is house and crate trained, gets along well with other dogs, and adores people, including both adults and children. However, she does not get along with cats. Always a house dog, Josie also loves outdoor adventures. Her previous family took excellent care of her, and the only reason they surrendered her is due to some medical issues. We hope Josie finds a wonderful family that will treat her like the princess she is and include her in daily life. At 6 years old and weighing 53 pounds, she has been spayed, microchipped, and is up to date on all vaccinations. Josie is currently located in Humboldt, TN, and her adoption fee is $400, which covers transport to her new home. Ready to add this lovely lady to your life? Apply now!
