Zeke came into the Haven a little confused. He had a happy home with someone who loved him. Unfortunately, they are no longer able to take care of him, and Zeke's in the market for a new forever family. The benefit of adopting a dog who has been a beloved family member, is that he knows how to behave properly in a home and exactly how much he is entitled to be worshipped. Zeke is housetrained, rides well in the car, and sleeps through the night. He enjoys little walks around the neighborhood (10-20min/2-3x a day) and will try to chase squirrels and bark at birds, but walks very nicely on a leash.. When he is left alone for a few hours, he just settles down for a nap and doesn't get into any mischief. He LOVES cuddles and massages and gets "happy hops" and grunts like a piglet when he wants attention and cuddles but otherwise will settle in the same room as you (He knows "go lay down"). He likes his licky-mat and treats, which he takes very gently. Zeke is fine around cats and would love to have another small dog companion in his new home. He has done well with older children (we haven't had a chance to observe him around littles). He likes a calm environment and lots of naps, so it might be best to stick to older kids. Zeke arrived with some masses, which are being addressed, and a cough from what is likely a collapsing trachea. He will likely need cough medicine going forward to help with that. He also gets eye goop, which needs to be cleaned regularly. If you would like a polite, cuddly, well-behaved shadow, come meet Zeke. Zeke is approx 13 years old and 24 lbs. fostered in Stony Beach, MD please apply at mirishaven.org
