Story

We would like to introduce a very special girl, Squeakers! Squeakers arrived at TJO severely emaciated, but with no shortage of love to give. As with any puppy, she has quite a bit of youthful energy and will happily learn how to live in a home with positive reinforcement.One of the first things you'll notice about Squeakers is her posture and back legs. She doesn't quite fully extend her back legs while standing, and while this could be a result of something genetic or environmental, she will likely need more intensive vet care as she continues to grow, so a good relationship with a vet will be important. Over time, she could be at a greater risk of arthritis, the development of luxating patellas, or other orthopedic discomfort. She will be a great candidate for moderate exercise, weight management, and maybe aqua therapy/physical therapy as she matures. She will repay you with her adorable, happy enthusiasm and gentle nature! Squeakers is a young girl, under the age of 1 yr who will benefit from learning all about living in a home with someone who is experienced with positive reinforcement, or willing to learn, and loving guidance. She will need moderate exercise, and lots of mental stimulation such as food puzzles, sniffing time, games, and learning fun tricks, all to create happy experiences while bonding with her family and building confidence. It is safest to avoid things like repetitive requests for âÂÂsitâÂÂ or intense running to prevent aggravating her hind legs, but she is inquisitive and thoroughly enjoys interactions with trusted people. Sweet Squeakers was interested in meeting other dogs, but she can be anxious if they are too pushy. She would likely do well in a home with a similarly sized, well socialized pup with the patience for a youngster. A dog meet nâÂÂ greet with a resident pup is required. While she has the normal energy of a puppy, she should be supervised during playtime to be sure it doesnâÂÂt become too rough or rowdy. Squeakers is very excited to meet new people, and she can sometimes jump to create the connection she craves. She has also shown some mild signs of resource guarding--eating faster when she's approached--and will likely do best around older kids (15+) that are able to understand how to interact with her, learn how to read body language (link under âÂÂresourcesâÂÂ on our website), and when to let her have her own space. Interactions with minors should be actively supervised for everyone's safety and comfort. When it comes to resource-guarding, itâÂÂs safest to âÂÂtrade upâÂÂ by tossing something of equal or higher value off to the side before removing food or toys. This will teach any dog they donâÂÂt have to lose favorite items, and our approach wonâÂÂt mean weâÂÂre taking something away. Angling out body slightly when a pup jumps up as we wait for all paws to be on the ground, will teach an excited dog the happy interaction will continue when our clothes donâÂÂt have paw-art. Interested in meeting this amazing girl? Please come to the shelter on Monday/Tuesday/Thursday/Friday from 12N-3:30 pm, or Saturdays by appointment. September 9, 2026, 12:01 pm

CHIP

Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Adult

Springfield, MA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Story

OTHER PETS: Chip has shown interest in other dogs but has not initiated play. He's a great communicator and gives feedback to other pups when he's uncomfortable. While he enjoys initiating play, he has a rough play style that may be too much for some. Another well socialized dog who is ok with rough n' tumble play may be a fit. A meet is a must. [Likely (With proper introduction)] OWNER EXPERIENCE: Experience with positive reinforcement or willingness to learn will be the best match For Chip. Additionally, due to Chip's high energy he is likely not a good fit for a first time owner. [Some Experience] KIDS: Chip's can sometimes be a bit of a bull dozer during play, likely knocking over small humans by accident making Chip a poor fit for households with people below the age of 15. Minors and children should be actively supervised to keep everyone safe and comfortable. [15 +]ACTIVITY LEVEL: Chip, a young/adolescent pup, still has a lot of the energy and will benefit from an owner that can give him plenty of age appropriate exercise combined with mental enrichment such as food puzzles, games, sniffing, and learning new tricks to fully meet his needs, as well as plenty of rest in between![Good Walking Buddy / Olympic Athlete]VETERINARY CARE: Regular visits to the Vet will help keep Chip in ideal health in a new home.[Routine] LEVEL OF TRAINING NEEDED: Chip may be a counter surfer in a new home. Positive reinforcement and effective management (setting up the envrionment to help him succeed, like removing food items and temptations) will help him form a strong human-canine bond whlie learning new skills and fun tricks, and building confidence as he matures. [Moderate] GROOMING: Regular brushing we help decrease Chip shedding in the house.[Minimal]September 9, 2026, 12:01 pm

MIKEY

Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Young

Springfield, MA

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Story

OTHER PETS: Mikey is interested in other dogs, greets them appropriately and communicates well. He would likely get along with most dogs and would do best with a similarly playful dog who can communicate and provide feedback well. Mikey should meet any dog he would be living with prior to adoption. [Likely (Must Meet First)] OWNER EXPERIENCE: Experience with positive reinforcement or willingness to learn will be an ideal fit. Mikey will need an owner who is very experienced helping dogs who struggle with over-arousal such as humping and jumping, which are best helped with non confrontational methods and positive reinforcement for paws on the ground. while he is very friendly and outgoing he will need consistent guidance and lots of patience to help him grow into a well adjusted pup while building confidence. [Very Experienced]KIDS: Mikey is a outgoing, playful dog who has struggled with arousal and has shown mild resource guarding while at TJO. While he is not aggressive to people, his tendency to hump when aroused does not make him a good fit for a home with small humans. We want Mikey to be set up for success, so his human family members should be old enough to understand how to interact with him safely when he is excited, to allow him to eat without disturbance. Minors and dogs, especially dogs who need additional help feeling safe, should be actively suprevised for everyone's comfort. [15+ (Must Meet First)]ACTIVITY LEVEL: Mikey is playful with humans and has a passing interest in toys here at TJO, which can change in a home with someone willing to teach him toys are fun. He will do well with a combination of regular exercise combined with mental enrichment such as food puzzles, games, and learning fun tricks to fully meet his needs. [Good Walking Buddy] VETERINARY CARE: Mikey arrived at TJO severely emaciated, while he has recovered to a healthy weight the long term consequences of such severe neglect during his development may have unforseen consequences. Mikey will need a good relationship with a vet to ensure that any health complications are able to be addressed promptly. [Above Average] GROOMING: [Routine] LEVEL OF TRAINING NEEDED: Positive reinforcement training will help Mikey develop a bond with his new owner, build confidence, and learn new skills and fun tricks. Mikey is working on loose-leash walking and will need help learning that all paws on the ground will continue the fun. [Moderate]September 9, 2026, 12:01 pm

FANCY

Pit Bull Terrier

Female, Adult

Springfield, MA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Story

Introducing Fancy! She has been social with humans, but less so with dogs. SheâÂÂll sniff and check out other dogs but so far has not been interested in play or social time with dogs. ItâÂÂs possible she might enjoy the company of another dog, but a meet nâÂÂ greet is required if thereâÂÂs a resident dog. Overall Fancy enjoys being social with her human friends, but she can also be anxious. As with all dogs, experience with positive reinforcement, or willingness to learn, is the best way to create happy associations to the world while building new skills and confidence. While this can change in a home, there has been mild resource-guarding with subtle signals. The safest way to manage resource-guarding is by âÂÂtrading upâÂÂ with something of equal or higher value tossed to the side so the original item can safely be removed. This also helps a dog learn that valuable things will always be available instead of removed and reduces anxiety around the loss of prized possessions. Due to the mild resource-guarding weâÂÂve seen at the shelter, she is best suited to older children, 15+ who can give her space, and learn how to read body language (link under 'resources' on our website). Minors should be actively supervised to be sure everyone is safe and comfortable, and important signals arenâÂÂt missed. As a younger pup she will thrive with regular exercise combined with plenty of mental enrichment such as food puzzles, sniffing time, learning new tricks, and playtime to keep her mind and body active while preventing boredom. Positive reinforcement to keep learning fun, and effective management (setting her environment up for success) will help Fancy learn important skills, create a strong bond with her guardian, and help build confidence, all while having fun. To keep her happy and healthy, sheâÂÂll benefit from regular visits to the vet. Please come meet this sweet girl by coming to the shelter Monday/Tuesday/Thursday/Friday from 12N-3:30, and Saturdays by appointment. September 9, 2026, 12:01 pm

Brandy

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 8 yrs 4 mos

Amherst, MA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Brandy! A sweet and snuggly eight-year-old American Pitbull Terrier mix currently in Bridgeport, CT, who’s ready to be the star of her very own home. With her stunning fawn-colored coat and soulful eyes, Brandy is a loyal companion who thrives when she’s the center of your world. Weighing about 60 pounds, she strikes a lovely balance between playful energy and calm cuddles, perfect for someone looking for both affection and activity. Brandy’s favorite things include belly rubs, rope toys, and soaking up the sun outside. She’s deeply affectionate and often rests her head on your lap just to feel close. She knows several commands such as “sit,” “high-five,” “come here,” and “get in your bed,” and she continues to make great progress with consistent training and positive reinforcement. Brandy is spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, and fully house-trained. She’s currently working with a professional trainer, and the difference is already showing. She now walks calmly on a leash using her training collar, responds well to guidance, and has even joined a friend on walks without barking or lunging. Recently, Brandy calmly encountered a Cane Corso during a walk and remained relaxed and curious rather than reactive, another encouraging sign of the progress she continues to make through training and positive experiences! Her trainer recommends more socialization and regular outings, and Brandy is rising to the challenge with grace and continued improvement. While Brandy hasn’t done well living with other dogs in the past and prefers not to share her home with them, this simply reflects her desire for a peaceful, predictable environment where she can feel secure. One bright spot has been her wonderful adjustment to a newly adopted cat in her current home. Despite the change in her household, Brandy welcomed her new feline companion with ease, and the two get along very well. She has done well around cats and would thrive in a home with adults who understand her breed and are committed to helping her continue to grow. A fenced yard would be the icing on the cake for this sun-loving girl. Brandy is ready to shine as your one and only bringing warmth, loyalty, and companionship to the right home. If you think you might be that special match, reach out to adopt@joyfulpets.com and learn more about bringing Brandy into your life!

Story

Meet Augusta! A striking five-and-a-half-year-old American Pitbull Terrier/German Shepherd/Labrador Retriever mix currently in Indianapolis, IN, whose intelligence and devotion make her a loyal companion ready for a new best friend. Weighing 62 pounds, she is strong, sturdy, and full of energy. With her beautiful tricolor coat and deep brown eyes, Augusta is a head-turner with a happy, boundless personality! Augusta is a training graduate who has mastered several commands. She heels nicely on a leash alongside her person and is crate-trained, happily settling into her cozy retreat when asked. She thrives on consistency and enjoys focusing on her handler, making her an excellent partner for someone who can guide her using basic commands. Her love for people shines in her desire for snuggles and companionship. She is incredibly smart and can quickly pick up on cues, especially when treats are involved! She has made great strides in training and has the capacity to learn even more. When she was first found, Augusta was unsure of the world and often stepped into the role of protector, which sometimes made her defensive. In one instance, when she felt uncertain, she reacted by nipping a neighbor on the ankle. However, with time, structure, and trust, her behavior has transformed. She now responds beautifully to guidance and routine! Because of her sensitive nature, Augusta would do best with an attentive pet guardian who understands how to manage her interactions and provide ongoing structure. She thrives with an active lifestyle and would do well in a home where she can enjoy physical exercise and mental enrichment. She is best suited as the only pet in an adult-only home with a guardian who has experience handling high-energy dogs and is committed to maintaining her progress. With patience, use of commands, and a consistent routine, Augusta will transition easily into a home where she receives attention and love. If you’re looking for a devoted companion and are ready to invest in a rewarding journey with Augusta, contact adopt@joyfulpets.com to learn more!
