Patch Pet: Josilyn

The large but lovable mixed breed wants to be a lap dog but will settle for cuddling.

Josilyn was found as a stray on the Coronado Strand. She is estimated to be 1 or 2 years old and weighs 60 lbs. Her breed seems to be a shepherd with perhaps a touch of mastiff.  

She knows her basic commands, but is still cautious on her walks until she gets used to her volunteer walker. This big bundle of love has a gorgeous chestnut coat that is shiny and soft and a heart as big as a mountain. A little shy at first, it does not take this girl long to get to know you and then let the love begin.

She is a wannabe lap dog who cannot show you how much she loves having you around. If you need a buddy to snuggle up to on cold nights around the fireplace, Josilyn is your girl.
