Meet Billy Joel
Looking for a little superstar to headline your home? Meet Billy Joel, a 10-year-old, 12-pound Jack Russell mix who's traded Madison Square Garden for your living room—and he's ready to be your biggest hit. Like the legendary Piano Man, our Billy knows how to win over a crowd. He's happiest hanging out with other small dogs who appreciate a good duet. Bigger dogs? Well... he's a celebrity, so he can be a little selective about his entourage. And cats? Let's just say they're not on his tour schedule. Truth be told, Billy would also be perfectly happy as your one and only headliner! He'd make a wonderful only dog, soaking up all the love and attention he deserves. One thing on his wish list? A securely fenced yard where he can stretch those little legs, sniff around, and put on a few zoomie concerts of his own. Billy is looking for a home with older, respectful kids who understand that every rock legend deserves a little personal space and VIP treatment. This seasoned performer is crate trained and is doing wonderfully with housebreaking. He's polished, professional, and always working on perfecting his act. Every superstar has a backstage rider, and Billy's is pretty simple! He was Lyme positive, so as he's gotten older he can get a little stiff now and then. But don't worry—his daily glucosamine supplement has him running around like he's back on his greatest hits tour. A little extra joint support keeps this rock star feeling young. Billy also has a dental and neuter appointment scheduled for August 13, and Paws will cover the cost. His foster or adopter simply needs to agree to get him to his appointment so he can keep flashing that award-winning smile. Billy Joel has already had a lifetime of stories to tell. Now he's looking for his forever audience—someone to share cozy evenings, neighborhood walks, backyard adventures, and plenty of encores. So if you're ready to say, "You may be right... this is the dog for me," don't wait! This little legend is ready to make your house his forever home. Billy Joel is available for adoption today—because every Piano Man deserves a forever fan. Pawsacrosspittsburgh.com/adopt Paws Across Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh- PA 15144 KL#16182
