Are you looking for a dog who oozes personality, sass, and maybe just a little chaos? Look no further—Joplin has entered the chat. Joplin is a sweetheart… once she gets to know you. She prefers a proper introduction before handing out her affection (she’s got standards, after all). But once you’re in her circle, prepare for a best friend who’s equal parts loyal, hilarious, and mildly obsessed with tennis balls. And we mean obsessed. Joplin isn’t just chasing them—she’s on a mission to shatter the world record for most tennis balls in one mouth. Is it three? Four? Twelve? She’s not sure yet, but she’s determined to find out. If you’re into quirky charm, endless games of fetch, and a dog who marches to the beat of her own rock anthem, Joplin might just be your kind of girl.

About Best Friends Animal Society

Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.

We’ve come a long way since the first known city reached no-kill in 1994, and now we’re closer than ever to making the entire country no-kill. Of the roughly 3,900 shelters operating in America today, 1,300 of them are not yet no-kill, but nearly half are close with 100 or fewer additional pets to be saved, and we know what to do to get them there.

Best Friends is committed to working with passionate people like you to save homeless pets through adoption, volunteering, fostering, and advocacy. In addition to our lifesaving centers around the U.S, we also founded and run the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals.

Working together, we can save homeless pets in our communities and secure a better future for our best friends. Together, we will bring the whole country to no-kill.
