Whether she is exploring her surroundings, finding something new to investigate or enjoying a little puppy playtime, Joni is always ready to see what fun the day has in store. Watch her video here and see just how sweet she is! We believe Joni may be a Labrador/Black Mouth Cur mix, though breed is always our best guess with rescue dogs. She has a beautiful tan coat, an expressive little face and the kind of floppy ears that seem to have a personality all their own. She has so much to learn, experience and discover as she grows. Of the two sisters, Joni is the more playful one! She has a wonderful enthusiasm for life and enjoys being part of whatever excitement is happening around her. Her curious personality makes her eager to investigate new surroundings, and she approaches each day with the kind of happy spirit that makes watching her explore so much fun. She is the sister who brings a little extra energy to the adventure, always ready to see what happens next. As much as Joni enjoys having fun, she is also an incredibly sweet little girl. She has that wonderful combination of playful curiosity and affection that makes spending time with her so special. One moment she is busy discovering something new, and the next she is reminding you just how lovable she can be. Joni has so much potential to become a wonderful companion. Potty training, leash manners, basic commands and everyday routines will all be part of her learning journey. She will benefit from a family excited to provide patience, consistency, positive reinforcement and plenty of opportunities to explore the world safely. With her curious personality, training can become another fun adventure for Joni and her future family to enjoy together. Joni is looking for a home that welcomes all the happiness, silliness and learning that come with raising a young dog. Her future family should be ready for playful moments, new discoveries and the occasional bit of mischief. She has so much growing ahead of her, and the people lucky enough to adopt her will get to watch her personality continue to develop with every new experience. Joni is sweet, curious and wonderfully playful, with a whole lifetime of love and adventures waiting ahead of her. She is looking for someone who appreciates a companion with a little extra sparkle, understands that learning takes time and is ready to make countless happy memories together.
