Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Joey is a beautiful 4 year old Red-Heeler mix, and she is a great size at around 35 lbs. Joey has been described as the "perfect dog" and we truly can't think of a negative thing about her! She would make a fabulous family dog, as she loves children. She is very affectionate – especially with children, and gets along very well with other animals. She has grown up in a loving home and due to her family having to move, she needs a new loving home. She is 100% housebroken and she doesn't need a crate. She is never destructive and has free roam of the house while her owner is away from work, and she never has accidents. She is SMART! She loves to swim, take walks and is used to being on a leash while her owner rides a bike or jogs. Her favorite thing is to fetch and return tennis balls she will do this for hours if you let her. She is very smart and knows sit, down, stay, roll-over, as well as jumping through a hula-hoop and “bang” (play dead). Joey needs regular exercise (like most dogs,) and would do great in a home with a fenced yard. She is spayed, current on all vaccinations, microchipped, and is current on Trifexis: a heartworm, flea, and parasite preventative. Joey is located near Huntsville, AL but she is available for adoption in your area. You can fill out an application for Joey here: http://forrescue.net/dog-application/
