Joni

Meet Joni! ❤️ This 8-month-old pup is looking for an active family who wants a hiking buddy, running partner, swimming companion, and professional cuddler all rolled into one!<br/><br/>Joni absolutely loves adventure. She’s happiest hitting the trails, exploring new places, splashing around in the water, or racing around with her canine friends. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and is already proving to be an amazing trail pup.<br/><br/>When the adventures are over, Joni is just as happy settling in for some serious cuddle time. She’s incredibly sweet and affectionate, though she can be shy when meeting new people and may need a little time to warm up. Once she knows you’re a friend, she’ll happily curl up close and soak up all the love.<br/><br/>Joni has also done well with cats. She may try to chase if they run because she thinks it’s a game, so a dog-savvy cat and slow, thoughtful introductions would be best.<br/><br/>She’s doing well with crate training, sleeps nicely through the night, and already knows "sit" and "paw." Joni is very food motivated and eager to learn, making training a lot of fun. She still has plenty of puppy energy and is working on remembering to keep all four paws on the ground when her excitement gets the best of her!<br/><br/>Fun DNA fact: Joni is 47.4% Siberian Husky, 17.2% American Pit Bull Terrier, 14.4% German Shepherd, and 21% Supermutt—a fun combination that helps explain her athletic, intelligent, and affectionate personality.<br/><br/>Joni is already spayed, up to date on her veterinary care, and ready for adoption! Her adoption donation is $400.<br/><br/>Interested in adopting Joni?
