KNOWN HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING: Joey is not a *huge* fan of going into his crate but he does settle nicely once he goes in. We're not sure if he's housebroken

ABOUT THIS ANIMAL: Sweet Joey is a bit of a shy guy right now. He is slowly opening up to staff at the adoption center and showing us his personality. He gets along great with the other dogs at the adoption center and might benefit from going to a home with a confident dog. Fun fact: Joey has a fauxhawk AND heterochromia. We're not saying he's the reincarnation of David Bowie, but we're also not NOT saying that.
