Meet Zipper, a 13-year-old shepherd mix who's ready to steal hearts! ❤️ This gentle giant weighs in at 49 pounds of pure love. Unfortunately, Zipper found himself at FAPL due to health issues affecting his beloved human, but he’s ready to bounce back and find a forever home filled with warmth and snuggles! Zipper is as friendly as they come, noted for being good with dogs, cats, and kids! Can you imagine the joy he would bring to your family? 🤗 This lovable pup simply needs that cozy spot on the couch and a loving heart to rest beside. Now, Zipper did have a little hiccup on arrival—a mass was removed, and we're currently waiting on those results. But worry not! Zipper is in great spirits, and all he dreams of is a comfy place to call home again. 🏡 Here's the scoop: while you don’t need an appointment to adopt Zipper, keep in mind that adoptions are on a first-come, first-served basis. So, get ready to fill out your application on-site and discover the joy of bringing this retired charm into your life. If you're considering adopting Zipper, it would be fantastic if you could bring your dog or kids along for a meet-and-greet! Just make sure you bring along a copy of your lease if you’re renting—gotta keep all the bases covered! 📝 And let's not forget—every pup at FAPL gets the royal treatment! Zipper has received one or more vaccinations, a basic veterinary exam, and is also dewormed, microchipped, and spayed. Plus, for dogs over 7 months, they are heartworm tested. That’s a whole lot of love in one adoption! So, if you’re ready to embrace this elderly treasure, gear up and head on over to the Buddy App to take the first step toward adopting Zipper.
