Hi, I'm Joe! I've been told I have a serious expression in some of my photos, but don't let that fool you. I'm actually spending most of my time wondering important things like where the treats are, who is available to give me scratches, and whether we're going on an adventure today. I'm a handsome guy with a sturdy build and a heart that's ready for a fresh start. Life hasn't always gone exactly according to plan, but I'm keeping my tail up and my hopes high. What I'm really looking for is a family who will see past my shelter kennel and get to know the loyal companion underneath. I'd love a place where I can stretch my legs, soak up some sunshine, and spend time with people who are happy to have a best friend by their side. Whether we're out exploring or just relaxing together at home, I'll be happiest knowing I belong. I may not be asking for much, just a soft place to sleep, a few treats here and there, and someone to call my own. I think that's a pretty fair deal considering all the love I have to give. If you are interested in meeting Joe, please contact the shelter directly to set up a meet and greet. Make sure you tell them you saw me on Petfinder.
