Start your journey together! Apply now. Meet Zeiss! Zeiss is a true original—a veteran service dog who spent seven years with a military veteran and is now ready for a new chapter. Having worked diligently as a certified service animal, he has recently retired from his duties and is searching for a home that respects his independent spirit. While Zeiss may not be the cuddliest companion and prefers to initiate affection on his own terms, he makes up for it with his handsome presence and unique personality. If approached for too long, he will simply walk away and voice his opinion, as any true grumpy gentleman does! Zeiss fits in beautifully with other dogs of all ages and sizes, seamlessly blending into a canine pack. He especially enjoys water play, whether it’s splashing in the pool or chasing the hose, and he loves a game of fetch or tug of war. Fully house trained and incredibly smart, he appreciates a calm, adults-only environment where everyone understands his boundaries. If you’re seeking a wonderful companion to enjoy from a respectful distance, Zeiss would love to meet you. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
