About Josie

Josie is a lively and affectionate young lady who thrives on playtime and companionship. She enjoys spirited interactions with other dogs, particularly those closer to her size, as her energy can overwhelm smaller pups. While she continues to learn how to play gently with younger dogs, she shows great progress. After a day of fun, Josie loves curling up with her humans or her dog pals to relax.
