About Zorro

Zorro is a tiny treasure who has endured a tough chapter in his life. After being lovingly cared for by his first human, he found himself at an animal shelter due to a heartbreaking domestic situation. Along with a bag of his belongings—including toys, sweaters, and treats—Zorro was reluctantly left behind. It was a tearful goodbye for all involved, but now he is looking for a loving home where he can feel safe and cherished again. He is a delight, always ready to bring joy to your life. Zorro enjoys his walks just as much as he loves snuggling on the couch. He gets along with dogs of all sizes and is well-mannered with cats, making him a great addition to any family. Crate trained and leash trained, he’s also making strides with potty training. A secure, fenced yard would be ideal so he can explore while staying close to you. Due to his small size, children in the home should be 10 years or older. Zorro is ready to begin his journey to a forever home. If you think you can provide the love he deserves, please apply. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
