My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Joy was rescued from the Palm Valley Animal Center in Palm Valley, Texas, which is on the Texas/Mexico border. She made an approximate 400 mile trip up to her foster family's house in Willis, Texas. She gets along beautifully with her fosters siblings, 3 dogs and 2 cats. She displays a submissive personality so making friends is quick and easy for her. She is incredibly friendly with people and other animals. She is SUPER cat friendly! She does want to play with them so if they run she will chase them but does not show a prey drive and will back off when they show they have had enough. If the cats allow, she will cuddle up with them on a pet bed. She plays well alone but does prefer to have a playmate! She absolutely LOVES toys, bones and tennis balls! Her foster siblings have tried to teach her to chase squirrels but she isn't interested, she would rather lay in the sun and chew on a toy or sticks. She maybe on the small side but she is full of personality! She is the perfect size to snuggle up in your lap! She loves to cuddle on the couch but has been trained that she can only come up if she is invited, to accommodate those with a strict no pets on the furniture rule. She is still very much a puppy so she will need a family that will be patient with her and that is committed to training. She knows the sit and no commands but potty training is still a work in progress. She sleeps through the night in her kennel, is on a twice daily feeding schedule and shows absolutely no food aggression. She walks well on a leash but does need more practice. She is so precious! She will be an amazing addition to someone's family!!
