About Joel

Joel is a delightful medium-sized dog seeking a new adventure buddy. Living in Buffalo, MN, he enjoys long walks and cuddles on the couch. His affectionate nature makes him a great companion; he loves to snuggle and picks up new tricks quickly. Joel knows how to settle down after a play session and sleeps well in his kennel, showing no resource guarding behaviors. He gets along well with children, especially his 10-year-old foster sister, and is adaptable to various living situations. While he shows a playful side, his foster home's dog is not too eager to engage, suggesting Joel could thrive as a solo pet or with a companion who matches his energy. Joel has a stronger prey drive, so a home without cats would be best. His classic German Shepherd traits shine through, so previous experience with this breed would be beneficial.
