Notes from Joyful Pets Animal Rescue

Meet Badb!

A lively three-year-old Siberian Husky and German Shepherd mix from Tacoma, WA, whose playful spirit and sweet nature make her a joy to be around.

With her creamy black coat, alert ears, and striking eyes, Badb turns heads wherever she goes. She’s always ready for fun—whether it’s chasing toys, exploring the yard, or zooming around with joy—and then settling in for a cozy nap nearby. She’s house-trained and crate-trained, and already knows basic commands like “sit” and “lay down,” showing her eagerness to learn and please.

Badb is deeply bonded to her people and thrives with connection and consistency. She’s working on feeling more secure when left alone and will blossom with a steady routine and gentle encouragement. She’s been great with her brothers and may be most comfortable with calm male dogs after slow introductions. Her feelings about cats are still unknown, so thoughtful introductions are best there, too.

Affectionate, intelligent, and full of potential, Badb is looking for a guardian who enjoys an active lifestyle and wants a devoted, loving companion by their side. If you’re ready for a loyal sidekick with a lot of heart and even more personality, Badb is waiting to meet you!

If you think you're ready for a loyal running buddy with a big personality in a fun-sized package, reach out to adopt@joyfulpets.com. Could Badb be the spirited sidekick your adventures are missing?

Badb has a couple of littermates who are also looking for new loving homes—just in case you're considering adopting more than one pup!
