Josie

Meet Josie! ❤️ This sweet girl came dangerously close to losing her life at an overcrowded California shelter after developing an upper respiratory infection and being placed on the euthanasia list. Thankfully, Arctic Rescue got her to safety just in time!

Josie is approximately 1 year old and 50 pounds, and she's a playful, energetic sweetheart who's still very much a puppy!

Josie LOVES other dogs! She's social, full of energy, and always ready to play. She also absolutely adores stuffed animals and carries her favorite stuffies everywhere!

Josie is doing amazingly well with crate training and settles nicely, especially when she has a stuffy to keep her company. Her foster says that if she starts whining, reminding her to grab her toy usually does the trick!

Like any young pup, Josie is still learning her manners. She's playful, a bit mouthy, and wants to play with everything, but she responds really well to correction! Because of her puppy enthusiasm, she'd do best with older kids and a family committed to continuing her training.

Josie is young, sweet, dog-friendly, and full of personality. After everything she's been through, she deserves a wonderful family to call her own!
