Joy's Story

Meet Joy, a darling pup who truly lives up to her name! Her foster family lovingly calls her Princess Joy, and once you meet her, you'll understand why. This sweet little girl is pure sunshine wrapped in the fluffiest white coat. With her bright, sparkling eyes and gentle personality, Joy has a way of instantly melting hearts. Her foster dad even took special<br/>photos to capture her magic, because that's exactly what she is: a little bit of magic in puppy<br/>form. Joy's journey hasn't always been easy, but those days are behind her now. In her foster<br/>home she's blossoming, learning about love, comfort, and all the wonderful things that come with being a cherished pup. Her foster family says she's adjusting beautifully and is ready to start the next chapter of her story, finding a forever home of her very own. She'll just need her second round of vaccinations before she's ready to head home, but that doesn't stop her from dreaming about her future family. Joy has lived happily with other dogs, so she'd love having a canine sibling to play with.<br/>That said, she'd also be perfectly content soaking up all the love as your one-and-only little princess. Whether you're a family, a couple, or a solo adopter, Joy would make a wonderful addition to your life. So if you're looking to add a little joy, sweetness, and puppy magic to your world, this precious girl might be the one for you. And we'd love to introduce you!

Companion Animal Community Center's Adoption Policy
1. Visit our Available Cats and Dogs pages on our website to see if any catch your interest. We have many cats and dogs looking for love currently in our foster home community. 2. Think about who you want to adopt to fit your lifestyle. What are you looking for in a new family member? Age range? Gender? Personality? What’s your home like? Do you have kids, other cats and or dogs? 3. Reach out to us about a certain animal. Know which one you want to meet? Fill out an online adoption application. *Please keep in mind that applications are answered in the order received, and someone may scoop up the animals you were sure was right for you before you get a chance to meet them. Your perfect companion is still out there waiting for you, we promise! 4. Schedule a virtual Meet and Greet. We’ll schedule a 20-30 minute session with one of our Adoption team members and the Foster Home of the animal through a video call like Zoom, Google Meet or FaceTime-all options for this session. Come to the session with your questions about the animal you’re getting to know, we’ll be able to give you insight into the animal you’re interested in adopting. 5. Interested in taking it to the next step? Foster to Adopt allows both of you to see if it’s a good match. We’ll arrange a pick up for you to bring your new friend home for a trial run. 6. Choose to Adopt. Did you fall in love? We’re so glad. Now take a pause. Adopting can be a 20 year commitment. Still ready to adopt? Great! Let’s make this official! 7. Not the right match? No problem, the foster home is ready to accept the animal back if if isn’t the right fit. 8. Finalize the adoption. We’ll go over the paperwork on the phone. We’ll go over basic care, the animal’s basic medical history, and your adoption paperwork and collect adoption fees. We’re also here to answer any other questions you may have before, during and after!
