About Joe

Joe is an 8-month-old mixed breed who weighs about 21 lbs. He’s a charming mix of Labrador Retriever and Jack Russell Terrier, embodying the best traits of both breeds. Initially cautious around strangers, Joe is eager to form bonds. With some patience and kindness, his reserved demeanor melts away to reveal a sweet, affectionate boy ready to be your companion. This small-sized pup is well-behaved, smart, and willing to please. He walks well on a leash and enjoys the company of dogs of all sizes, playing happily in their company. While he can be a tad unsure at first, Joe can coexist peacefully with cats too. His affectionate nature shines brightly once he's comfortable with you. Although Joe has not yet been assessed specifically with children, he has shown no signs of aggression toward anyone at the shelter, and he does well with everyone he meets. His ideal adopter will be someone who understands that Joe needs time to adjust and is willing to shower him with love (and perhaps a few treats) during his adjustment period. Joe is neutered, fully vaccinated, and microchipped, and he's up to date on heartworm and flea and tick prevention. He’s clean, having not shown any signs of accidents in his quarters. Ready to bond with a loyal companion? Joe is here waiting for you. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
