Joey thrives on the joy of play, whether it's chasing squeaky toys or unraveling puzzles. After a fun-filled session, he knows how to wind down just as much, curling up in his crate like it’s his favorite recliner. Social by nature, he’s great with other dogs and absolutely adores kids, though his excited greetings can come with a little bounce. Joey is on the path to mastering the basics; he already knows “sit” and is getting the hang of house training. Evening walks are becoming a part of his routine too. While car rides are still a quest for him due to a bit of motion sensitivity, his curiosity about the world is endearing. If you’re looking for a furry friend who brings a bit of energy and affection, Joey could be the one. Joey’s adoption fee is $275, which covers his neutering, microchip, vaccinations, and preventatives. Ready to meet him? Click apply to start the adoption process.
