It's Josh's Birthday!

It's Josh's Birthday!

Apr 5, 12:00pm - Apr 5, 5:00pm

đŸļ🎉 HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JOSH! 🎂🐾

A lot of you have followed Josh’s journey over the last year or so— well, It’s Josh’s special day this Saturday! He’s celebrating his 6th Birthday and we’re making the day all about him! The staff is going to sing to him and surprise him with dog-friendly cupcakes and a special gift (we promise to share video!).

We want YOU to join in on the fun, too! While we hope that his birthday is the day he receives the best present of all— a forever home— if you can’t adopt, you can make Josh feel special still! Bring a birthday card for Josh’s kennel & get a FREE plush "Josh" to take home! Yes, you read that right! Bring a card for Josh and take home your very own plush Josh, complete with an adoption certificate! (While supplies last!) This is perfect if you have kiddos at home (he loves kids) who want to do something special for a shelter dog.

Josh is really is an AMAZING dog—super sweet, has done great with kids, and ready for all the fun. Josh is housebroken, great in the car, and loves to swim! He’s also unfazed by loud noises—vacuum cleaners, nail guns, saws—you name it, Josh stays cool as a cucumber. 🧘‍♂ī¸ And did we mention he’s super easy-going? Whether it’s snuggling on the couch or playing outside, Josh is always up for a good time

Don’t miss out—Josh can’t wait to see you and make this birthday one to remember! For more information on Josh, head to www.orphansofthestorm.org/dogs.
