About Zara

Zara is an incredibly sweet girl who adores her people. She thrives on affection, enjoying cuddles and snuggling on the couch. Relaxing in a home with her favorite person is truly her happy place. Zara travels well in the car and prefers to explore the world right by your side, rather than roaming freely in the yard. When off-leash, she can be a bit anxious and often returns to the gate, ready for the safety of her leash again. This makes her feel more secure when close to her person. She is devoted to the one she calls her human and may show possessiveness around other dogs or cats. Because of this trait, it’s essential to have a patient adopter who can provide guidance as Zara learns to share her love. If you’re after a loyal and affectionate companion who just wants your company, Zara could be the perfect fit for you! Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
