My story

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

Joejo is a sweet boy with a gentle, quiet demeanor. He gets along well with children and other dogs, and he may even thrive in a home with cats. Joejo just wants to be everyone's friend!

His perfect day includes going on a walk, playing with his toys, and curling up at his person's feet for a snooze. He loves romping around with other dogs, but he is also content with a quiet day in the house.

Joejo has impeccable manners. He is house-trained, knows Sit and Down, walks politely on the leash, and sleeps through the night for 8+ hours. Even around squirrels, birds, and those pesky UPS trucks, he remains calm.

An inquisitive boy, Joejo likes collecting objects like dish towels, socks, and shoes. Don't worry, though -- Joejo is gentle with his findings. He enjoys inspecting soft objects with his mouth, but he does not chew them up.

Because of his curiosity, Joejo will sometimes try to take things off the table. When this happens, he needs to be redirected. He is also working on crate training.

If you're looking for a sweet, friendly, and easygoing companion, Joejo is the perfect match!

HISTORY
Joejo was found by a Good Samaritan in a rural county.

HEALTH
Joejo is up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, neutered, and heartworm negative. One side of his mouth has an irregularity, so that in order to drink and eat Joejo must submerge his entire snout in deep bowls. He therefore needs a good tooth brushing after every meal.

PHYSICAL
Joejo has a wavy, low-shedding black coat with a few caramel highlights. With all that luscious fur, he would be a striking shampoo model!

Adoption Process

Our goal is finding lifelong, loving homes for our animals, so we try to find the best match between animal and adopter. We can help advise you on which animals to meet based on your situation.

You can meet some of our animals at our weekend adoption events, or we can arrange for a meeting in the foster home. If it’s a good match, the foster parent will come to visit your home in person. This is to make sure your home is safe and secure for a new companion animal.

Note: IAR makes every effort to please our adopters, but our first concern must be for the animal’s welfare. We reserve the right to deny any application.

More about this rescue

IAR started with one woman's big dreams, a bigger heart, and a very distinctive purple pickup truck that helped her rescue countless of unwanted, abused, and homeless Triangle pets. Originally founded in 1994, IAR earned an official 501(c)(3) status in 1995. We are governed by a Board of Directors, managed by elected officers, and introduced IAR’s first paid position, General Manager, in June 2021. This role will assist with elevating our collective compassion to new heights and strengthening IAR’s impact as a whole.

Our mission is to rescue and provide safe and responsible care for homeless, abandoned, and abused animals. We shall strive to help all animals in need through our service programs. We will serve our communities through promotion of spay/neuter for all companion animals, and the education of children and adults in humane care, respect and responsibility for animals on this earth.
