Story
FORE!!! Incoming cuteness…
Josh is a Border Collie/Pittie mix and appears to be powered entirely by snacks, curiosity, and an alarming lack of self-preservation.
Case in point: when Josh arrived at Flying B, he was in rough shape and required emergency surgery to remove the inner core of a golf ball from his GI tract. Apparently, nobody told Josh that golf balls are for fetching, not eating.
Thankfully, he came through surgery like a champ and is making a full recovery. These days he's focused on eating actual food, gaining back much-needed weight, and making up for lost time.
Josh is firmly in his awkward teenager phase. He's all legs, enthusiasm, and questionable decision-making. Watching him tear around the yard at full speed, only to realize he may have overestimated his turning radius, is part of his charm.
This boy loves to run. Whether it's zooming around the yard, exploring a trail, tagging along on a hike, or hopping in the car for his next adventure, Josh is happiest when he's part of the action. He's looking for a family that enjoys getting outside and experiencing life alongside their dog.
When the adventures are over, Josh is all about the cuddles. Beneath all that puppy energy is a sweet, affectionate boy who loves being close to his people and soaking up attention.
Honestly, Josh has already checked "major emergency surgery" off his puppy bucket list. From here on out, we'd like his adventures to involve hiking trails, road trips, muddy paws, and long naps after a day well spent.
This resilient, goofy, lovable kid is ready to find a family who appreciates a dog that lives life with his whole heart. Josh has overcome a rough start and is more than ready for the fun part of his story to begin.
