Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Joyce! 🐶💗
Joyce is a 2-year-old pit bull mix who came to us as a stray alongside her two puppies. Her babies are now safe and cared for, and it’s finally Joyce’s turn to find a loving home of her own.
Joyce is truly a people dog at heart. She forms quick, gentle connections and loves being close to her humans. On a recent volunteer outing, she showed just how affectionate she is by calmly settling in, resting her head in a lap, and drifting off to sleep as if she’d found her safe place. If you sit down, don’t be surprised if Joyce quietly climbs into your lap and rolls over for belly rubs. She’s soft, trusting, and happiest simply being near you.
She walks nicely on leash, enjoys getting out for fresh air and exploration, and has a calm, easygoing presence once she’s out of the kennel. Joyce has been tolerant around other dogs, but she prefers calmer companions and may become overwhelmed by overly energetic play styles. Because of this, she would likely do best with a relaxed canine friend or as your one-and-only, where she can soak up all the attention she loves.
Joyce is ready for a home where she can feel safe, cherished, and part of the family she’s been waiting for. If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate companion who bonds deeply with her people, come meet Joyce and see if she’s your perfect match. 🐾❤️
