Story
Meet Fuchsia AKA Angie! Fuchsia, affectionately known as Angie, is a 4-year-old, fully grown retriever mix with a gentle and loving nature. She was originally born here in 2021 and adopted into a home, but sadly returned to our care in September when her family had to move and were unable to take her along. She came back with her adopted brother, Milo, through no fault of her own. Since returning, Angie has only shared a room with Milo, but she has shown openness to potentially making additional doggy friends with proper introductions. She has lived comfortably with two children and is potty trained, making her a wonderful option for a family environment. Angie does not require prior dog experience and would be a great match for first-time adopters. True to her retriever roots, she enjoys affection and is happiest when she’s cuddled up with her people.

Story
Meet Mo! A soulful five-and-a-half-year-old Chesapeake Bay Retriever mix currently living in Atlanta, GA, whose gentle heart and tricolor coat are just waiting to be cherished in the right peaceful setting. Mo is a sweet snuggler, at 75 pounds, he still believes laps are made for him! While he’s calm and low-energy indoors, Mo bonds deeply once he feels safe, especially with women, and becomes a loyal shadow to his favorite person. He’s house-trained, crate-trained, and knows basic commands like sit, stay, and come. His favorite activity? Snuggling close and soaking up affection! He's the kind of dog who makes quiet evenings on the couch feel like the coziest place on Earth. But Mo’s heart beats a little faster in today’s noisy world. Since moving to a busy city apartment, the hustle and bustle have become too much for him. City walks filled with strangers, dogs, and unpredictable sounds leave him anxious and reactive. His ideal home is a calm, structured environment in a quiet rural or suburban area, with a securely fenced yard where he can enjoy the outdoors without overwhelming stimuli. Mo needs to be the only pet in the home. He’s a curious guy with a strong prey drive and unfamiliar animals can stress him out. He’s selective about other dogs and would thrive in a home without cats or frequent visitors. A guardian experienced with anxiety or reactivity in dogs, who uses positive reinforcement and has patience in spades, will help Mo begin to rebuild his confidence. Consistency and gentle companionship are key, and he’d do especially well with someone who works from home or has a predictable routine. While Mo does need ongoing support, he gives back tenfold with his affection, loyalty, and the quiet joy of simply being close to someone who makes him feel safe. He's neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, and just needs to avoid poultry due to allergies. He also has mild arthritis in his hind legs, but that doesn’t stop him from curling up beside his favorite human for a good cuddle. Are you the calm, compassionate guardian ready to give Mo the peaceful home he needs? Reach out to adopt@joyfulpets.com to learn more about bringing this tenderhearted companion into your life!
