Zora is the kind of dog who makes a house feel softer just by being in it, side of giggles included as she can usually be found proudly carrying a toy around giving it a bit of a house tour. She's estimated to be 5-7 years old and weighs 64lbs, likely a German Shepherd mix. Zora is a homebody at heart who likes calm routines, friendly dog company, and a soft place to land. She can be nervous when meeting new people, especially out in public, but she does better when folks are sitting down and letting her approach at her own pace. Once she decides you're safe, she'll show you a sweet tail wag, a gentle paw, and the most polite little nose nudge. She's not a big cuddler, but she absolutely enjoys love and will happily request it on her terms. Zora loves going on walks, chewing on toys, and hanging out with her dog buddies. Her favorite treasures include chew toys, stuffies, ropes, and house shoes!
Ideal Home
Zora's ideal home would be a single-level home with minimal or no stairs, so her hips can keep young. She genuinely enjoys other dogs' company, so she'd love a home with a playful doggie friend where things feel steady, friendly, and routine-based. Zora is more comfortable meeting guests in the home than in public, which makes her a great match for someone who prefers cozy home life over constant outings.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned.
Training & Support
Zora is house-trained with zero indoor accidents and has never chewed furniture. She is quiet in her crate, where she is crated during the day and overnight. She is afraid of vacuums and occasionally strangers, so she'll do best with a patient, gentle approach that lets her build trust at her own pace. When Zora has a toy, she may grumble if another dog tries to take it, but she's "all bark and no bite."
