About Joy

Spirited, playful, and silly; that's our Joy! This beautiful girl is a Belgium Shepherd mix with a fluffy black and white coat. Joy is a large dog estimated to be around one year old. She has a zest for life and plenty of youthful energy. An active family would best suit this fun-loving pup. She needs someone with plenty of time to exercise and train her. Joy needs activities to keep her mind busy and would not be happy if left in a crate all day. Daily runs or long walks are a must. Joy also enjoys playing outdoor games like fetch and would be awesome at Frisbee. She is exceptionally bright and learns new skills quickly. Joy still has some puppy habits she needs to break. Jumping up on people is one. For this reason, she needs a home without small children. A quick squirt from a water bottle reminds Joy to mind her manners. She responds well to correction and is quick to obey. Joy would do well with another dog that enjoys rambunctious play. Cats she will chase. This carefree girl is clueless about boundaries and will need a tall securely fenced in backyard. Joy will need additional housetraining but does prefer going outside. She is very affectionate and quite the snuggle bug when tuckered out. Joy is a wonderful pet and ready to join your family for adventure and fun.
