About Zach

Zach is a 1.5-year-old male Chihuahua who found himself abandoned on a backcountry road. At just 9 pounds, he had to learn quickly that he was safe, and it’s heartbreaking to think of how vulnerable he was. Despite his rough start, he has a charming spirit and boasts a playful demeanor. Zach does well with other dogs but is equally content exploring on his own. He would thrive in a fenced yard where he can roam and do his business safely, though he's also calm on a leash. Zach's unique blend of apricot, black, and cream colors gives him a distinctive look. Adoption details include a fee of $275, which covers his spaying, microchipping, deworming, and vaccinations. What a great addition he would be to any loving home! Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
