My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This incredibly handsome hunk of love is named Joseph. He is very cute, sweet and a bundle of energy. He was found tied with his leash to a dumpster and left to fend for himself. But thankfully a hero came to his rescue and brought him to the shelter on 3/31. He sat so quietly during his hold time in his kennel. Once that hold was completed, he was thrilled to go outside and be playful. Joseph is so playful and excited to roll around in the outside runs just feeling something else along his little back other than a hard, cold floor or a dumpster. He was a joy to watch having a good time! Despite what he has endured already, he has not let this dampen his sweetness. Joseph is 2 years old and weighs 45lbs. He will be a medium size pup as he gets older. He also super duper smart as he knows simple commands such as sit when asked, lay down and he may know more and would like to know more. Joseph is on a journey for a new lease on life. He deserves a family that will protect him from harm and help him grow into an amazing young man. He deserves to have an awesome family and all the love, toys and treats he could ever have and more. Will you please come visit him and scoop him up to make him yours forever? Please make absolutely sure you able and willing to be committed to this young man's life so he doesn't end up in the shelter ever again.

Joseph is current on vaccines, neutered, micro chipped upon his adoption. He will also be tested for heart worms also upon his adoption. He is hoping you will be the one to come through for him and never leave him alone ever again. Joseph will be happily waiting for his forever family in Run 80 and his ID is 655578.
