Potential adopters with a standard 8-hour workday must be willing to make arrangements to meet the needs of their puppy. Josiah is Looking For: Hiya! I'm Josiah! Me and my littermates, Janie, Jin Lee, Joetta, Juniper, Jingles, Jasmine, and Jolene have loved our time in the puppy pile, but we are each ready to pack our bags and find our very own forever home! I'm looking for a home that will let me play with toys and get my puppy zoomies out and give me snuggles in between playtimes. When I'm a little older, I can't wait to explore my new neighborhood on lots of walks, and I'd really like to make a bunch of doggie friends along the way. Oh, and I should probably take a puppy obedience class or two so I can show you how smart I am. What do you say? Do you have room in your heart for me? What My Foster Says About Me: Josiah is the sweetest, most chill pup. His day consists of sleeping, cuddling, walking and being absolutely adorable. He loves to sleep in his crate and goes in there happily at night time. He does want to eat everything you’re eating and becomes extra cute in the hope that you’ll share. He’s learning how to walk in a straight line and how to stay away from trash on the curb. The good part is he understands “no” really well. Jo-Jo is not a licker, he shows affection by sprawling in front of you and asking for rubs and massages. Be warned, his coat, especially his ears are so soft, the massage can be hours long cause it’s so addictive and fun. Josiah is very trusting and eager to make friends. Like all pups, he does tire in the sun so don’t be fooled if you catch him sleeping. He’ll play when he wakes up. Puppy Vetting Requirements: Lucky Puppies have had their age appropriate vaccines, but may not yet be “fully” vaccinated. It is the adopter’s responsibility to ensure that the remaining puppy vaccines are given at the appropriate time. Please also keep in mind that, until your puppy is fully vaccinated, they are at greater risk for illness than an adult dog. Due to this puppy’s young age, she/he has not yet been spayed or neutered. As part of the adoption contract, it will be your responsibility, as the adopter, to ensure that this is done no later than August 24, 2025. There are NO EXCEPTIONS and NO EXTENSIONS to this date. A non-refundable spay/neuter deposit will be collected if you would like Lucky Dog to pay for this animal to be spayed/neutered at one of our low cost partner vets. Your new puppy will need to work on their house training and will also need to go to obedience school so they can grow into a well-socialized dog! TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this puppy is $485, which includes the cost of routine vetting and transport from the shelter.
