The Josephine puppies are available to applicants whose applications were received on or before Feb 18, 2026.

Meet the “J” puppies! These sweet, cuddly pups are still very young and learning all about the world, and ready for love from their future families. Their mom, Josephine, is about 45 lbs and very agile (she can easily hop baby gates!), so these puppies may grow into active, smart dogs. While we don’t know their mix, we do know they’ll need homes with a little consistency, structure, and time to expose them to the big wide world! They love cuddling and being wrapped up in arms (often falling asleep in laps!), enjoy tug-of-war and puppy-sized squeaky toys, and are comfortable relaxing in their playpen when left alone for short periods. These pups are ready for homes that are excited for all the fun, responsibility, and love that comes with raising a puppy.
