About Tony

Meet Tony! This big blue-eyed goofball has been with Zeus’ Rescues for a whole year, and it’s time for him to find a home of his own. At 2 years old, Tony was found running the streets of New Orleans and no one came forward for him, so he joined our family. He’s a bundle of fun and energy, adoring walks and playtime with other dogs. Smart and affectionate, he’s simply an all-around lovable guy with stunning crystal-blue eyes. Weighing in at about 45 pounds, Tony is neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and fully vaccinated. He’d thrive in a home that offers plenty of walks, playtime, and adventures with his very own people. After a year with us, it’s time to bring Tony home! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
