My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
A24019 Joy is a gray colored, approximately 3-year-old, 49-pound, spayed female, Pitbull.
She entered the shelter as a stray on 12-02-2024 and was altered by our medical staff.
Joy is a friendly, shy, easy to handle girl here in the shelter. She is scared in this shelter environment and trying to figure it out. Our staff says she is a sweet and loves affection. They said Joy is a wonderful dog who will make a great companion. She was easy to leash but pulls in excitement to be out of the kennel. She will need some love and training to be her best family member. She is shy but definitely looking for that special someone to trust and love. She has no interest in other dogs here at the shelter. Joy will be a loyal, loving companion in her new forever home.
