About Zero

Meet Zero, a very young 10-year-old who has found his way back to where it all began. Ten years ago, he was adopted from us, but sadly his owner passed away without a plan for him. After spending a decade in a loving home, he’s returned to the shelter, and we couldn't wait to bring him back into our care. Zero is a gentle and mellow guy who is settling in nicely. He’s become good buddies with his little Chihuahua kennel mate, Sally, showing just how friendly he can be. It's heartbreaking to see a dog come back after so long, and Zero truly deserves another chance at a loving home. If you're looking for a sweet, gentle companion, Zero is ready to meet you. Let’s help him find his final chapter with a loving family that will cherish him. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
