About Zozo

Meet Zozo! This young, one-year-old Belgian Shepherd/Malinois mix weighs in at a solid 62 pounds. With a sweet disposition, she embodies the loving nature of her breed. ***SHEPHERD/MALINOIS EXPERIENCE REQUIRED*** Zozo is calm and only barks to alert you of approaching visitors. She walks beautifully on a leash, knows basic commands, and is eager to please. This gentle girl enjoys a variety of activities, including trail walks, fetch, and playtime with her toys. She adapts well to car rides and is perfectly content lounging in her crate while maintaining a tidy kennel. Zozo thrives in an active, outdoorsy family environment and is great with children, though we recommend those aged 13 and older, as she’s quite large and needs a dog-savvy companion. She is social with dogs of similar size given proper introductions and has successfully lived with dog-smart cats. To keep her safe and happy, a secure fenced yard is essential. If you have further inquiries or wish to adopt, feel free to reach out via email. Qualified applications are prioritized, and you'll hear back within 72 hours if selected. Thank you for considering this wonderful companion!
