Story
Joey is a seven-month-old shepherd mix with a goofy personality and the bounce of a baby kangaroo—which is exactly how he got his name! At around 55 lbs now, Joey is a happy, healthy, energetic boy who loves to play all day and explore new things.Joey settled into his foster home quickly and now spends his days playing with his foster dog brother, exploring anything new, and hopping around with excitement whenever the mood strikes. Joey is fully potty trained, heads to the door when he needs to go out, and sleeps comfortably in his crate. With visitors or noises outside, he’s quick to let you know what’s going on, so he cannot live in a home with shared walls (no apartments/townhomes).He’s great with other dogs and currently lives with two kids under ten, soaking up their attention and affection. Joey cannot live with cats and would be happiest in a feline-free home. He has moderate energy and would love a daily walk, backyard time on a lead, and plenty of opportunities to romp with a dog friend or enjoy a sturdy chew toy. Once he’s had his fun, he crashes hard and loves a long, lazy nap. Joey is a healthy, joyful boy who’s still growing into his big ears and bigger personality, and he’s ready for a family who’ll enjoy his lovable kangaroo hops as much as he does.
