About Zephyr

Zephyr is a stunning young lady who’s about a year old. She arrived at the rescue from a local shelter, a bit anxious and overwhelmed at first. With time, she’s gained confidence and now shines with her playful spirit, especially when with her canine friends. Playing with other dogs has really helped her become more socialized. For her comfort, Zephyr needs a consistent, calm environment. She can get startled by loud noises like lawnmowers or gunfire, but when she's outside with her pals, she's truly in her element—active and energetic. A tranquil home and another dog will help her adjust smoothly. A fenced yard would be ideal for her to play safely. It’s also worth noting that she gets along well with cats. Zephyr is spayed and current on all vaccinations, flea/tick/heartworm preventative, and has passed her heartworm check. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
