About Zoey

Zoey is a striking 5-year-old Labrador Retriever mix who tips the scales at about 45 pounds. Her love for her people is truly the center of her world. Zoey would flourish as the only pet, soaking up all the affection and attention, but she can also settle in well with other dogs if introductions are taken slowly. She's especially gentle around larger dogs, often preferring to be submissive. Kids of all ages bring out Zoey's best—she genuinely enjoys their company and would thrive as a cherished family companion. A yard is a bonus for her; she loves tearing around after a tennis ball just as much as she enjoys curling up inside for some well-earned relaxation. In the house, Zoey is calm, snuggly, and bonds deeply, happiest with her favorite humans within arm’s reach. For Zoey, laid-back homes or those with a yard provide just the atmosphere she needs to shine. Currently in Northern Los Angeles but open for adoption nationwide, Zoey is looking for a family ready to let her be at the center of their lives. Think she could be your next couch buddy?
