Hi, my name is Josephine. I was living in this neighborhood where some nice people were feeding me. They really liked me but couldn't keep me so Animal Control came and picked me up. The shelter workers and I got along great and I liked being there, they were nice to me. They called my foster mom and asked her to come save me so she did. I really love it here! She has lots of room for me to run, which is hard for me to do with my big feet. I’m very clumsy. My Foster mommy says I’m a goofball. I’m not sure what that is but she laughs and hugs me right after she says it so I like it!! She has other dogs for me to play with, she has one that doesn't like me very much but I keep trying to make friends with her. She also has this little thing she calls a kitten. That kitten scares me a little bit but I’m getting use to her. I have a really big crate and I like to go in there to sleep. I’m house trained and know a few other things like sit and down. I do OK on a leash but I forget how strong I am and start to pull but my foster mommy reminds me to heel so I do. I’m not sure how old I am but I’m told I’m about 1.5 to 2 years old but I’m still very much a puppy. I love to play, run and roll around with my toys. I’m very submissive; I don’t like conflict so I just give in. I love to be with my foster mommy and her other dogs. I don’t like to be left alone. It makes me sad so I just lay down and wait for them to return.
