Zoey Rae is a very sweet girl who loves people! She is super spry and energetic, although she doesn't have the endurance a young pup would have. She has only a touch of grey on her muzzle, but she must have drunk from the Fountain of Youth as she is so playful with her toys and looks much younger. Zoey is mostly content to lay next to her human on the floor after she plays with her toys for a bit. She does love the couch if someone is sitting on it, but will get bored and get down to go find her toys. She does great in a car, but does not like any reflections bouncing on the car roof or in the house.
Ideal Home
Zoey would love to have a fur-ever home with a person or family who can devote lots of love and attention. Because of her resource guarding, she will do better as an only dog in the house. Smaller kiddos are not recommended because she doesn't realize her size and she does get possessive with her food and toys.
Ongoing Health
Zoey has a chicken allergy according to her vet records.
Training & Support
Zoey can be rough on her toys, so strong balls and ropes are the best. She does well in the house and never has accidents, but if something drops to the floor, Zoey thinks that's fair game to grab (she will trade for a treat). She is a counter surfer, so you do have to be careful of leaving food unattended. Zoey does fine at the vet with the techs, but has to be muzzled when the "white coat" guy comes into the room. Zoey is a VERY vocal girl and will whimper with excitement when people come to the house, and she definitely has the Rottie rumble. She expresses her feelings with her voice for sure. She initially did not like her head petted. With trust, she has gotten better with that, however, she will give a low growl if someone is doing something she doesn't like. She takes treats fairly gently and is very treat motivated.
