Almond Joy is a kind, gentle, and affectionate dog who is new to us and already showing his sweet personality. He has a calm, loving nature and enjoys attention, often rolling over to invite belly rubs. While he can be a little shy around other dogs, he remains friendly and approachable, making him a patient and loyal companion.

He looks like a herding or working breed mix, with a striking cinnamon-tan coat accented by red-and-white speckling on his face, chest, and legs. A prominent white blaze sits between his wide-set, alert ears, and his deep brown eyes give him a soulful, attentive expression. His sturdy, athletic frame reflects his playful, energetic side.

Almond Joy enjoys vigorous walks and has a playful, puppy-like energy that makes time with him engaging and entertaining. Attentive, sweet, and ready for companionship, he’s looking for a home where he can enjoy both activity and affection. Reach out to learn more about welcoming Almond Joy into your life through adoption or foster.

INTERESTED IN FOSTERING?

This pup is currently located at our Town Lake Animal Center (1156 W. Cesar Chavez, but use 1200 Reserve Road for mapping purposes). We'd love to show them off to you! To learn more about them, head in any day between 12:00PM - 6:00PM. We are open 7 days a week! Go to Building B and ask to speak with a Matchmaker about fostering this pup. You will sit down and discuss all we know about them and, if it's a good fit, get to meet them then! Please budget for a wait time unless you arrive right at opening as we cannot dictate walk-in traffic (wait times tend to be highest in the evenings and on weekends). If this pup ends up not being the best fit, we have so many other pups in need that we can suggest for your household on the spot!
