Josey has a gentle spirit and thrives in a medium to low-key home. She’s not a fan of crates and has a touch of separation anxiety, but with patience and love, she’s already learning the ropes. She also has some allergies—a common trait for dogs from Texas—but many pups see improvement when they relocate.
