This dog is currently out of state but will be transported to New England shortly with no additional travel costs. The long distance adoption process includes talking to the foster they are living with in the south. Roughly 90% of our dogs are successfully long distance adopted and 10% adopted locally. **Please read Zelda Zip's entire profile, which includes a link to the adoption application at the end. Thank you!** Meet Zelda Zip, a 2-month-old Beauceron / Husky mix who is also mixed with a multitude of amazing breeds making her the Perfect American mutt! She weighs 12 pounds (as of 3/7/26). This sweet girl and her brother, Ziggy, are known as the ZIPS from Tennessee! Sadly, they were found by a coroner when their owner passed away. While their mom was adopted by someone else, these pups were rescued in order to find a new fur-ever home. Growing up, Zelda and her brother didn't have much human interaction so they are slowly coming out of their shell through the help of their amazing foster. Hopefully you can help these playful pups to bloom! Zelda is small but mighty! This feisty girl loves to bark at the dog in the mirror: "Who is that?! Stop staring at me!" She's always on alert and watches everything, even that wedgie you picked. Zelda loves her big foster sister dog and enjoys playing with her brother as well. When she's not out and about in the world, Zelda loves being held and curls right up on your lap to sleep. Hope you used the bathroom first 'cause you'll be sitting for awhile! Zelda loves children, but at the same time, she's still generally suspicious of kids and cats. She hopes to give them more tries to win her over. What a diva! The Zip siblings are both catching on to house training but are struggling with the leash. They hope their fur-ever family will have love and patience for them as they figure out how to be the best house dogs (though they can sleep in a crate so they're getting close!) We think they'd thrive in a quieter home that had another dog or a home where they could be together. Bring some fun energy home! Adopt Zelda today! All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works. Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
