Meet Junie! This spunky, sweet, almost 4-year-old pup has a heart full of love and a fresh start to share. After spending 7 months in a shelter, she came to us in early 2025 and has been soaking up every bit of her freedom ever since. She holds a very special place in our hearts as our longest resident, and we cannot wait to find her the home she deserves! Junie is super smart and eager to learn. In February 2026 she spent 5 weeks at a board and train, and her transformation has been so amazing to see. She has come so far and has never been more ready for her forever home! She loves walks, exploring nature, and long car rides. She is potty trained and crate trained and has never had a single accident in her foster home! In fact, Junie's first priority in the morning isn't going potty, it's getting kisses and pets. She loves people deeply, and while she can be a little skittish at first, she warms up quickly and once she is comfortable with you, she will be your most loyal companion! Junie can get pretty excited around other dogs and does best with slow, structured introductions over time. She is like a big puppy who doesn't quite know her own size yet. She has worked so hard to get where she is, and a home with a fenced yard is a must so she can truly flourish!
Ideal Home
Junie would thrive in a home without small dogs or cats, and any big dogs in the home would need to be introduced gradually. She would do best with older children or no kids. A home with a fenced yard is a must.
Ongoing Health
Junie is spayed and completed her heartworm treatment back in May 2025.
Training & Support
Junie is potty trained and crate trained. She has undergone board and train and is eager to continue learning. She can get excited around other dogs, so slow introductions are recommended.
