Josie is a sweet and loving companion for the whole family. This delightful Staffordshire Terrier mix, estimated to be born around October 26, 2023, and weighing 41 lbs, is the perfect cuddle buddy for any occasion. She enjoys playing with her toys, snuggling with her foster siblings, sunbathing, and the occasional chicken nugget! Josie has also shown she does wonderfully with children, as she lives in a foster home with them and has seamlessly acclimated. She is potty trained, great on the leash, and knows commands like "sit" and "stay." Being very treat motivated, Josie is eager to learn, obey, and become a cherished part of your pack. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs, especially playful ones. Snuggling up on the couch is one of her favorite activities, and she's quick to catch a snooze there. While she's happy sleeping on the couch or going for long walks, her absolute favorite activity is going on car rides – and she gets them often as she's a perfect car-riding companion! Josie was rescued from the county shelter, where she was scheduled to be euthanized due to overcrowding. She arrived as a neglect case, emaciated and clearly having had a rough start, but she has come a long way. She's still working on gaining a little more weight, but she's ready to find her forever home.

Transporation
Transport is included in the adoption fee. Pickup locations for transported dogs may vary, including across city, county, and/or state lines. We coordinate with multiple transport services that operate weekly to Eastern states and bi-weekly or monthly to Western states from Texas. These are ground transports using third-party vehicles converted for dog transport. You will be able to track the van using the Life360 app and receive updates from transport. Facebook chats are also available to stay informed on tracking dogs on transport. Please be prepared to use one of these services if you wish to follow your adopted dog on transport.
