About Josie

Josie is a sweet, high-energy dog who thrives on play and companionship. She gets along well with other dogs, especially those her size, since her enthusiasm might overwhelm smaller pups. Currently, she’s working on playing gently with puppies, making great strides in her interactions. After her adventures, she enjoys cuddling with her humans or canine buddies, reflecting her affectionate nature. Josie is kennel trained and settles down well during rest periods. While she tends to get car sick and isn't fond of travel, she quickly shakes it off once she arrives at a new destination, eager for the next adventure. An active, loving home would suit her perfectly, offering plenty of playtime and bonding opportunities. Josie is currently in a foster home in Chattanooga, TN, and can be transported to most locations across the continental United States. However, please note that we cannot adopt to residents of Massachusetts at this time. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
