About Zoey

Zoey is a 6-year-old German Shepherd mix in Bothell, WA looking for a new beginning after her owner had to move for health reasons. She spent much of the last year crated, but she remains sweet, clever, and eager to be part of the action. Zoey is house trained, crate trained, and knows her basic commands like sit, lay down, and kennel up. She shows real shepherd smarts mixed with a goofy, playful energy; you’ll see flashes of those classic Labrador vibes when she wants to run, play fetch, or take a dip—even if it’s just in the garden pond. On calm days, she settles down and prefers to be close but never demanding attention. With people, Zoey is confident and social, and she seeks out companionship—she loves being near her humans. She’s lived alongside a cat before but hasn’t been fully integrated, so some patience and introductions would be wise if you have cats. Dog-wise, she’s friendly and enjoys playtime with her current foster’s resident dog, but she’d also do fine as an only pet if she gets enough interaction. An adopter with experience handling large breeds or shepherds is important, especially because she’s working on her leash manners and can be strong on a walk. If you’re looking for a loyal, smart, and fun companion who’s past the puppy stage but still young at heart, Zoey might be a perfect match. Adoption is limited to the greater Seattle area after foster evaluation. Your new best friend is just one click away.
