About ZOLA (Beautiful, Affectionate, Loyal, Friendly)

Hi, I'm Zola! I'm a beautiful, affectionate, and loyal 2-year-old German Shepherd mix, weighing around 64 pounds. My tail starts wagging the moment I see you, and I love meeting new people, going on walks, and exploring all the exciting new scents the world has to offer. My fun, joyful energy is contagious, whether I'm stretching my legs with playful runs or darting happily around the house! My rescuer, Mrs. Natalie, found me and my friend Zalla abandoned in a rural area and couldn't leave us behind. She gave us a second chance at love, and now I'm ready to find my perfect forever family. I'm spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on my shots.

Ideal Home

I'd love an active home where I can go on adventures with my person. I enjoy relaxing and cozying up indoors after a fun day out.

Ongoing Health

I am spayed, microchipped, and current on all my vaccinations.

Training & Support

I'm house and crate trained, and I walk nicely on a leash. My loyalty is truly a testament to my shepherd roots.

Application Details:

  • Applications to adopt me start by contacting us through Wags.

Transportation

I am currently located near Houston, TX. Freedom Street Rescue is a foster-to-adopt rescue and has successfully placed dogs in the east and north for many years. If approved, I will travel to my new family, and after a month, if everything is going well, the adoption will be finalized. If you have questions, please email pattystavinoha@yahoo.com.
