Hi, I'm Zeus! I'm a smart, playful, sweet, and affectionate boy with an "electrifying" personality. I love toys, especially playing chase and tug-of-war. I'm a super fetcher, though I might not always bring the ball all the way back – after all, I'm named after a god! I'm a quick learner with excellent manners; I take treats gently and enjoy grazing my food throughout the day. Sometimes, when I'm excited, I get a little too "ruff" when playing and I like to "talk back." I'm working on learning my doggy manners to contain all this awesomeness! I'm crate-trained and will happily go in when asked, even using it for naps. I'm a great team player and love hanging out for belly rubs, but I'm also happy to entertain myself while you're busy. My foster parents say I have a strong interest in birds and squirrels, so I might not be the best fit for a home with cats. I'm an empath and can match energies well. I have a calm, older lady dog friend I enjoy going on walks and relaxing with. I love spending time with my people and can get along with other canines with slow introductions.
Ideal Home
A home where I can continue to learn my doggy manners and harness my playful energy. I also have a strong interest in small critters, so a home that understands this is best.
