About Joy

Hi there! I’m Joy — and yes, the name fits perfectly! I’m a little bundle of sunshine who can’t wait to bring a smile to your face every single day. You might be wondering why a happy puppy like me is looking for a home. Well, life doesn’t always go as planned — but I’m not one to dwell on the past. I’m too busy chasing squeaky toys and spreading good vibes!

I was born with a stiff right hind leg. It doesn’t bend, but since I’ve never known anything different, it truly doesn’t slow me down. I walk with a cute little hop, but trust me — I can still keep up with the best of them! I love my zoomies, cuddles, playtime with my puppy pals, and all the fun that comes with being young and full of life.

Now, what I need most is a family who’s ready for the long haul — 15 years or more of love, laughter, and loyalty. If you’re planning big changes that might make it hard to care for a dog, it’s okay to wait until the timing’s right. I deserve (and promise to give) a forever kind of love.

Because I’m still learning all the important “dog stuff,” I’d do best with a family who’s home a good part of the day. A canine or feline sibling would be fun, too — as long as they don’t mind a little puppy mischief! I’d also be happy to share my home with gentle kids over 8 who know how to be kind to a small dog like me.

I’m cheerful, curious, and ready to take on the world — one wiggly step at a time. If you’re looking for a lifetime of JOY, look no further. Fill out that application and let’s start our adventure together!
