My story

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

Meet our J boys!
These boys arrived to the shelter after their owner passed away. We do not know much about their lives prior to the shelter but one thing for sure, everything is so new to them! These boys will need patient owners who are able to continue training. Each boy is very friendly and is desperate for attention. Being loved, hugged and petted are just some of the things they adore. They are not reactive towards other dogs and may enjoy having a friend in their new home. They would do best with a tolerable friend that matches their energy. We can always provide a dog meet and greet prior to adopting if needed! When they arrived to the shelter they were underweight - we are happy to say that they have put on a few pounds! We haven`t seen this since their first couple days in shelter but they were possessive of food and toys. This is something to keep in mind once they are in their new homes and it may be best that they be fed separately from other animals.

Joseph is a wiggly guy who likes to show off his parkour skills. He does tend to jump up a lot and can be difficult to redirect. We eventually came to the conclusion that he just loves hugs and realized that if he jumps up he`ll get a hug!
