Snuggly and goofy Joanie is ready to find her furever home where she will be doted on as much as this little lady deserves. This fun and people loving girl is all about playful human companionship and would love to join an active family who would let her join in on their adventures. Joanie would love to share her home with a medium or large doggie ‘sibling’ that complimented her nature and could help ease her into her new home. Joanie would prefer if all humans in the home were nine years old or older as she be a little unsure of grabby hands. If the humans throw toys for her to zoomie after, they will quickly win her heart! Joanie is still working on being comfortable home alone and would prefer having human or canine company while she gets used to her new life. Joanie is a bit more active than a stereotypical greyhound, and would love one or two 20 minute walks a day with some plays scattered throughout to keep her healthy and her tail wagging!
If you’re looking for a playful and loving companion, Joanie might just be the perfect match.
Joanie Foster Update | Goofy girl looking for an active home
Joanie has been pampered and spoilt in foster care but is ready to find her furever home. Joanie’s foster humans describe her as “loving, snuggly, playful, clumsy, and confident at home”.
We have been told that Joanie is very much a people pup, greeting both family members and guests with enthusiasm, cuddles, and a want to get as close as physically possible. However, she is understanding that strangers on the street want their space and calmly ignores them (until they say hello).
Joanie is acing a lot of aspects of pet life. She has taken toilet training in her stride, settled well into the home’s routine, and remains on her bed while dinner is cooking. While she is gaining confidence every day, she is still learning about new experiences (she is not the biggest fan of wearing coats yet). Joanie still needs guidance and training on her leash manners, particularly staying calm when she sees another dog, however she is making amazing progress with consistency and support.
Joanie is a little more active than your stereotypical greyhound and would benefit from a home that can give her both enrichment and plenty of playtime. She has a favourite orangutan toy that she LOVES to toss into the air and go sprinting after, which will be following her to her future furever home.
Joanie has enjoyed the presence of her foster ‘sister’ Cece immensely, and her foster humans note that she seems more comfortable with another dog that she can look to for reassurance. Joanie has clearly taken comfort in the resident greyhound and would thrive with a medium or large canine companion.
Joanie is a wonderful hound that will definitely keep her humans laughing daily with her goofy antics.
To set Joanie up for success, her forever and foster homes would be similar environments, and include;
✅ Active and playful household
✅ Medium or large doggie ‘sibling’
✅ All house members nine years or older
