About Zeus

Meet Zeus! Zeus is a sweet, playful boy who adores attention and loves to play fetch. Spend some time with him, and you'll quickly become his favorite person. He has grown up around children and has been fantastic with kids, including his family's three children and visiting nieces and nephews. Zeus can also adjust well to living with other dogs and cats after he gets settled. Initially, he might try to assert himself but typically relaxes and largely ignores them once he's comfortable. Zeus is familiar with a kennel and understands the "kennel" command. He has always slept in a kennel at night and currently spends part of his day in one due to his previous circumstances and the need for supervision. He has experienced a few accidents when left unsupervised. He enjoys walks and is familiar with using a leash, though he likes to take the lead and stop often to leave his mark. Zeus can be vocal, especially when feeling anxious. His family has found calming aids, such as anxiety collars, to be helpful, and his future family should be prepared to continue addressing his anxiety with potential options discussed with their veterinarian. Once Zeus feels secure, he transforms into a fun-loving companion who enjoys playtime and being around his people! Your new best friend is just one click away.
