Story
Meet Joker, a three-year-old Belgian Malinois/German Shepherd mix weighing 60 pounds.Joker is a friendly, smart dog with a great foundation and so much potential. He has pretty good manners already, enjoys spending time with people, and walks nicely on a leash, making him a fun companion for daily adventures.Joker is eager to learn and responds well to guidance. With a little continued training and polishing, he`s the kind of dog who is likely to become an amazing lifelong companion. He enjoys being part of the action and would thrive in a home that will continue helping him build on the skills he already has.The person who found Joker reported that he did well around their dogs and cats, suggesting he may enjoy sharing a home with other pets. As with any adoption, slow introductions are recommended.One thing to know about Joker is that he can be a bit of an escape artist—he has been known to hop a fence if left unattended outside. Because of this, he`ll do best with a family that supervises outdoor time and provides plenty of companionship, exercise, and enrichment.Joker is a bright, friendly dog who`s ready for a fresh start. If you`re looking for a smart, well-mannered companion with lots of promise, Joker may be the perfect match for you!This pet is available for adoption on 6/25/2026 12:43 PM at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center.
