About Joan the family pup

Meet Joan, a sweet and playful puppy estimated to be around 3 months old. We believe she might be a Lab/Shepherd mix, but her exact breed is a delightful mystery! Joan is a bundle of joy with a sleek black-and-white coat, adorable floppy ears, a squishy puppy face, and captivating brown eyes. Her charming white markings on her chest and chin make her look like a little sweetheart posing for every photo opportunity.

Joan is currently thriving in a foster home, learning about the world through abundant playtime, naptime, and cuddles. She's growing up with people and other dogs, developing into a happy, confident, and well-socialized pup. Her favorite hobby is anything involving toys – stuffies, balls, tug toys, and chew toys are all met with enthusiastic play. She especially loves a good tug-of-war with her brother and has all the playful energy you'd expect from a healthy young pup. Joan is also a natural at fetch and loves to show off her playful spirit. She approaches life with enthusiasm, curiosity, and a wagging tail, always eager for the next fun adventure.

When she's not zooming around, Joan is a cuddlebug who loves to be held, snuggled, and showered with affection. She'll happily curl up in your arms or rest her head on your shoulder, soaking up all the love.

Ideal Home

Joan will thrive in a home that is committed to providing her with consistent training, socialization, patience, and love as she grows.

Ongoing Health

Joan is a healthy young puppy. As with all puppies, she will need her regular veterinary care, vaccinations, and preventative medications.

Training & Support

Like all puppies, Joan will benefit from crate training, a daily routine, positive reinforcement, and continued exposure to new experiences. She is learning about the world around her and will need ongoing guidance to help her navigate it successfully.
