Joyce

We are so pleased to introduce Joyce! Joyce is the mama of our Strangers Things litter and now it is her turn to find her forever home!

Joyce is a charmer! She is shy when meeting new people but she warms up quickly with patience and slow introductions. When you get to see her affectionate side you will fall in love instantly! Joyce loves her foster parents and will give them gentle nose nudges when she wants pets, attention or food!

Joyce is a medium energy girl who absolutely loves walks and play! She is doing well with learning proper leash manners but she will still pull and get excited when she sees a squirrel or another dog she wants to meet! We believe Joyce would make an excellent running partner with more training and practice with her leash skills!

Even though this beautiful girl is a mama, she’s still a puppy herself at heart! Joyce loves to play fetch and chew on her dog-safe bones at home! She is very smart and can sometimes get bored at home but she isn’t destructive and will only chew on designated dog toys. She would love a home that will prioritize her mental enrichment as well as physical activity.

Joyce loves to meet new dogs on walks and she has lived with other dogs in the past. She can show some guarding towards other dogs when a high value toy is involved so this would have to be monitored if she were to live with another dog. She would also do well as an only dog with lots of dog friends for her to play with. We don’t know how she would be with cats but given her propensity for squirrel chasing it may not be the best match. Younger kids can be too much for Joyce as she is shy with people at first. She would need a home with older, respectful children.

Joyce is fully house and crate trained and is excellent in her crate for a full work day! She is also excellent on car rides and she would absolutely love to accompany her new people on hikes and adventures!

Joyce is such a sweetheart and a beautiful girl! She was an excellent mama to her pups and now we can’t wait to see her find the forever home she deserves! Could it be yours?
