Hi, my name is Joe Jonas!
From: Washoe County Regional Animal Services
Description: Meet Joe Jonas, a curious, fun-loving guy with a big personality and an even bigger zest for life. He's always been a Jonas, but once you meet him, you'll understand why this name fits. He has that unmistakable Joe Jonas energy. Expressive, vibrant, and full of charm in his own unique way. Joe loves to explore and take in the world around him, stopping to investigate every interesting smell and sound along the way. He's the kind of dog who truly enjoys the moment, whether he's wandering the yard, heading out for a walk, or happily entertaining himself nearby. His energy isn't about chaos. It's about curiosity and joy. Joe recently attended a busy adoption event and handled it beautifully. He was comfortable around other dogs, respectful around toys, and content doing his own thing even in a lively environment. He doesn't need to be the center of attention to shine, but his personality naturally draws people in. He would do well with a confident, playful dog sibling or as a solo act in a home that appreciates an independent, spirited companion. Joe is still working on polishing his leash skills and manners, and he thrives with structure, consistency, and positive guidance. If you're looking for a dog with star power, heart, and a spark that makes everyday life a little more fun, Joe Jonas is ready to meet his people. Come meet him and see for yourself… No backstage access required!

Child Compatibility: History Unknown; I can meet kids 12+!

Dog Care Basics
Please be patient while your dog adjusts to you and its new home. Please take your new dog directly home on a secure leash, collar or harness and try to keep it a calm environment while s/he investigates and acclimates. The transition may be somewhat stressful on your dog, and it’s best not to take it to a friend’s house, dog park, school or other busy, crowded place right away. A pet who displays a happy, playful attitude at the Adoption Center may act wary and fearful in a new environment. Please follow our Adoption Counselor’s advice during your adoption process!
Consider Getting Pet Insurance
In your adoption packet, there is information about signing up for a free trial for pet insurance. Please take advantage of this offer! It can help you save your dog’s life in the event of an unexpected accident. Additionally, you can research additional pet insurance options.

If you’ve viewed our Pet Behavioral Support page and still have questions, contact our Pet Help Line: (775) 324-7773, 200
Visit a Local Vet
Please take your dog to a veterinarian within two weeks of adoption to create a trusted relationship for emergencies, annual checkups, vaccinations, and on-going care.
Vaccinate Your Dog
Your new dog leaves our Adoption Center up to date on vaccinations, but you’ll need to continue its vaccinations and you may want additional ones (example: Canine Flu).
Dog Behavior
Watch for cues about how your pet is feeling. If your pet seems timid, try to move slowly, or just sit in the same room reading a book and let your pet come to you. If your pet is full of energy and ready to play, get out the toys right away. But be cautious. Pets can be both scared and full of energy. Modify your actions to make your new pet feel welcome. The care you take with your own behavior in early days will pay off in the future as your pet learns that you are someone to trust.

More about me
Hi, my name is Mr. Incredible!
From: Washoe County Regional Animal Services
Description: I may be a wise and seasoned pup, but I still have the heart of a hero and plenty of energy for adventures! I love zooming through the yard, exploring new sights and smells, and talking (okay, maybe narrating!) my way through life. I'm loyal, loving, and always ready to save the day… or at least save the best spot on the couch for cuddles. With a few silver hairs and a lifetime of love to give, I'm looking for a family who wants a toy-loving, opinionated, and heroic companion. Could that be you?
Dog Compatibility: I seem to like dogs; Let's meet!
