Hi, my name is Joley (or Mom calls me JoJo sometimes).  My foster mom and dad think that I am between 2 and 3, based largely on my occasional wild child personality but I do settle down and lay quietly.  I was a stray so no one really knows for sure.  Before I came here I was living in an indoor/outdoor run situation at a county shelter and had had no training.  Since arriving, I am now crate trained and doing really well with my potty training. I also discovered these things called couches! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them!  I am a very affectionate girl who loves to be petted and will lay by your feet and nap (although I'd rather be on that couch!)  I am working on some basic commands and do well with come, and I will sit for a treat.  I have 3 foster dog sisters that I do well with although they are a bit on the older side and don't really play with me much.  Mom gives me toys to help with that and encourages me to race around the yard to wear myself out.  I can do major zoomies in the yard!  I would love a family of my own and especially some kids to play with. I would probably do best with older ones as I can get pretty excited when playing and might accidentally knock little ones down.   I am located in Des Moines, IA, and would love to meet you!
