Whitney Joy is one of those pups that feels impossible not to love the second you meet her. Between her giant happy smile, soft soulful eyes, and ridiculously velvety bunny-rabbit-soft fur, she has a personality that instantly pulls people in. And we HAVE to talk about the little ridge of fur running down the middle of her back because it is honestly one of the coolest, cutest things ever and somehow makes her even more unique. Whitney Joy has that happy, friendly Lab-like personality people adore, but there's also something really gentle and sweet about her that makes her stand out in her own way. She's playful, affectionate, goofy, and full of that easy, feel-good energy that makes everyday life more fun just by having her around. She's believed to be a Lab mix, approximately 1 year old and currently weighing 52 lbs. She loves every person she meets and knows no strangers! Connections with her are instantaneous. Whitney is such a go-with-the-flow type of girl who is happy regardless of where she is or who she is with.
Ideal Home
Whitney would do best in a home with another dog that enjoys companionship, playful adventures, and fun little games of chase. If you don't have another dog though, that's completely okay too, as Whitney does not rely on another dog to feel comfortable or confident and would be just as happy soaking up all the love and attention as your one-and-only girl. Her ideal home would also have a backyard where she can zoom around, play with her toys, and sunbathe during those nice summer days. Whitney gives the impression that she is a social butterfly type, so if you're someone who likes to host or have friends over for backyard BBQs, Whitney will be right there in the midst of all the entertainment. She has also done really well with a 5-year-old child she met.
Ongoing Health
Whitney is a rescue and we cannot guarantee breed or age.
Training & Support
Whitney loves treats and will do anything for a tasty snack! She already knows how to sit and lay down, and will do it almost instantaneously when you ask. She walks generally well on a leash and is crate and potty trained. Whitney will pull every now and then on a leash out of excitement, but with structured leash walks and consistency, this little lady will be walking like a princess more consistently. She met our house cat Biggie and was very respectful around him. If you have a cat in the home, we can arrange for her to have a sleepover with a cat upon request.
