Joey also enjoys zipping around the yard, proudly carrying his toys with him. Though he's been housetrained, Joey is still honing his leash skills. He requires a patient family willing to gently introduce him to the world and help him build confidence. Each day, Joey becomes a bit bolder and reveals more of his playful and affectionate side.
