About Zoe

Meet Zoe, a rare gem who seems to have skipped the chaotic puppy phase. Despite her young age (around 4 months old), she is calm, quiet, and naturally well-mannered. Since arriving at her foster home, she has only barked twice, and both times were just a polite invitation for the resident dog to play! One of her most charming daily rituals involves pulling every single toy out of her bin each morning to keep herself busy throughout the day, though she is an expert sharer and has no trouble letting other dogs or humans join in on the fun. Zoe is a dream; she doesn’t jump on visitors, doesn't beg for your dinner, and is incredibly gentle with humans of all ages, from toddlers to adults. She is just as peaceful outdoors as she is inside, preferring to sit and quietly watch the birds rather than chase after squirrels. When she isn't birdwatching or playing with her foster siblings, you can find her napping comfortably on the couch, her dog bed, or tucked away in her crate. Zoe is already ahead of the curve in regard to training. She has been a great crate sleeper from night one, sleeping through the night without a single peep. She is also doing wonderful with her house training and has already developed a clear signal, sitting by the back door and whining when it’s time to go out. While she is still mastering "sit" and getting used to the rhythm of harness walks, she is smart and attentive and listens well. If you’re looking for a low-drama, sweet-natured puppy who is a relaxed "grazer" at mealtime and a professional cuddler the rest of the day, Zoe is ready to meet you. Interested in adopting this dog?
