Joy

My name Joy says it all! I am full of love and affection and energy. I am such a sweetheart.
I am highly food motivated so when you get those lamb treats out I will race to my bed and sit so pretty that you can’t help but give me more than one! I do need exercise but at the same time if I need to be alone in the house for hours then I do fine, but I just might ask for more exercise when you get back.
I am about two years old but we don’t know my exact age as I was a rescue from the streets of California. I had a litter of pups in my foster home and then I was fixed.
My current home has no yard and only one human who works outside the home, and this is not really enough for me. I did better when my human was working from home, but alas that is no longer an option. I also don’t love living in a crowded inner city because if I am feeling anxious i sometimes bark at people - this usually just happens at the end of a long work week when I have pent up energy. I would do better in a less crowded neighborhood or better yet a rural area where there is room to roam and sniff.
I do fine with other dogs and spend every Thursday with a group of dogs and a trainer and we go on lots of adventures. I have boarded with several different trainers and been with their dogs and also did great. I spend about two days a week at doggie daycare and I am good and tired at the end of those days! I have had no issues being there but sometimes I need convincing to walk through the front door.
I don’t love loud noises or the unpredictability of small kids so I probably would do best in a home with only grownups.
