My story

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

Hi world, I’m Mighty Joe Young but my fosters call me Sir Joseph or JoJo for short.
I’m a dapper 13 year old dachshund mix and I unfortunately found my way into foster after my owner passed away but I don’t let that keep me down. I’m a spry senior gentleman with lots of life left to share with my new forever home! I weigh 13 lbs, am neutered and up to date on shots. I love walks in the park and do well on leash. I do great with other dogs and people but I get excited and like to bark at the cat. I loooove playing with squeaky toys and will bring them to you to play fetch. If you’re looking for a pint sized companion who’s house trained with good manners and medium to low energy then I’m your guy! I love to beg for snacks and keep my people company around the house, whether it’s doing chores or napping on the couch together. I can’t wait to meet you!
