🩺 MY HEALTH 🩺
💖 MY PERSONALITY 💖
Hi, I’m Joel, a lively and energetic puppy who’s always ready for fun! I’m curious about everything around me, so I’m rarely sitting still—there’s just so much to explore in the world. Sometimes when I get corrected, I might grumble a little under my breath before listening… but I’m still a sweet and obedient pup who truly wants to follow my people. I’m very gentle by nature and love being around humans.
I’m a pup with lots of potential, a playful spirit, and a very lovable personality. With the right guidance and love, I’ll grow into a wonderful companion.
🐶 MY SOCIAL SKILLS 🐶
· With People: I am very outgoing and love to greet people, even strangers! I can be pet and be held in your arms, and guess what? I’ll even show you my belly! I haven’t had the chance to meet children under the age of 13, but I think I love them already!
· With Dogs: I don’t only get along with people, I get along with all dogs too! I enjoy playing with dogs of all sizes and I love saying hello to all my friends!
· With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown
⚡️ ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY ⚡️
I have high energy level – I really enjoy outdoor activities like walks, playtime, and exploring. When I get enough exercise and fun outside, I’m happy to come home and rest calmly. After a good adventure, I settle down nicely and enjoy relaxing time with my people.
I’m still very young, so I’m still learning my walking manners. I’ll need a little leash training and guidance. With patience and practice, I know I can become a great walking companion.
🧠 TRAINING & HABITS 🧠
I don’t guard my food from people, but I may be a little sensitive if another dog comes nearby.
I might bark to let you know when I really want something. It’s just my way of saying, “Hey, I’d love that, please!” With a little guidance and routine, I can learn better ways to ask for what I need.
When I’m placed in a kennel, I might whine a little at first. It’s just my way of saying I’d rather be close to my people. With patience, reassurance, and a cozy routine, I can learn to feel more comfortable settling in my kennel.
🏡 MY IDEAL HOME 🏡
I’m searching for a patient, loving family who can help me become the best version of myself. I’ll thrive in a home with:
💌 SPECIAL NOTES 💌
Since I’m still a puppy, training will be very important for me. I currently use pee pads, but I’ll need continued potty training and leash training as I grow.
