My name is Joy!

Meet Joy – Your Future Best Friend! Joy is a sweet, spirited 1-year-old Australian Terrier/Silky terrier mix ? who’s ready to fill your life with love, cuddles, and happiness. Weighing just 11.5 pounds, she’s the perfect size for snuggling on the couch or joining you on daily adventures. This adorable girl has a scruffy, black and tan coat that adds to her irresistible charm. Despite a rough start in life—her previous owner moved away and left her behind—Joy’s resilient spirit shines through. Thanks to a caring neighbor, she found her way to AFC, and now she’s eager to find a loving forever home where she can truly thrive. Joy is a bundle of affection who loves everyone she meets. She leans into hugs and snuggles, soaking up love and giving it right back. Her friendly, cheerful nature makes her an excellent candidate for therapy dogs work—she has the potential to bring comfort and joy to many. She’s a quick learner, already using the doggie door and going potty outside on command. Joy is spayed and has been vaccinated, microchipped, flea-treated, and dewormed—she’s all set to become a beloved member of your family. Joy needs- A home where someone is with her most of the time, as she thrives on companionship and may cry if left alone. A home without crating, since she doesn’t do well confined. Lots of love, patience, and gentle guidance as she continues to settle in and learn her new routines. If you’re looking for a loyal, joyful pup who will fill your days with love and your heart with happiness, Joy might be the perfect match.

We appreciate that you are interested in one or more of our dogs or cats for adoption. Here is a list of things that should help us answer you in a more timely manner.



1. When you apply please always use the same email address. If we need to look something up later and you used a different email we are often not able to find it.



2. Adopt a Pet and Petfinders ask you to send us an enquiry. This always delays our response. (Why)

a. Our biographies are always very detailed. Therefore sending an enquiry asking us to repeat what it says in the biography causes a lot more work and delays our response.

b. We are a small non-profit and do not always have the help to answer as many enquiries as we get.

c. Again our Biographies are very detailed and if you just click the link near the bottom of their bio you can fill out an application which we will respond to.



3. For the AFC website (scroll down to the bio at the bottom it says (apply to adopt today- click that link) www.animalfriendsconnect.org



4. For Petfinders ( scroll down to the biography then click the adoption link) http://animalfriendsconnect.org/adoption-application-dogs/



5. For Adopt a Pet (scroll way down past “Ask about me”) you will see the biography and underneath that will be the adoption questionnaire link.
We are closed on Sundays unless you make prior arrangements and schedule an appointment
