My name is Joel!

Joel loves the outdoors. He loves to roll around in the grass and bathe in the sun. He follows his nose anywhere, usually along a tree line and into tall grass and weeds. Any chance he gets, he'll hop into a river or pond, even in the dead of winter. I'm looking for a new home for Joel where he can spend more time outdoors doing the things he loves—ideally 2+ hours per day to explore.

Joel is used to living with other dogs and has done well around young children. He can be hit-or-miss with strange dogs on walks, but he can get comfortable with anyone after some exposure. Cats get him very excited, but he tends to scare them off.

When you adopt Joel, you can take all his gear home with him—toys, leashes, collars, etc. His favorite toy is the 13" Multipet Duckworth.

Joel isn't trained per se, but he knows his name and can do a few tricks.

His DNA test shows that he is:
50% Poodle (Standard)
22.9% Australian Shepherd
13% Boston Terrier
8.2% Beagle
5.9% Cocker Spaniel
