Adoption Pending! Cat lovers please apply! Zeus is a one and a half year old red, docked and cropped male that  is such a sweet guy. He seems to love every one he meets and is good with other dogs, both male and female. Zeus NICELY avoids any kind of confrontation with other dog who might challenge him which is such a great quality in a dog! His previous owners never vetted him during his first year of life, but now that he is with us, he has been neutered, wormed, vaccinated, tested negative for heart worms and on now on preventative, and micro-chipped. Zeus did get adopted and was returned as the arrival of the new baby turned the house upside down and did not sit well with him. So in our commitment to all our dogs for their entire life, Zeus will be looking for a new home with a fenced yard, one committed to him for the rest of his life, give him structure, basic training and begin his journey of a lifetime being someones dog, older children only though. Zeus does know some basic obedience commands such as sit, down, and speak. He is super intelligent and very food motivated which makes it easy to train! You will not go wrong with this guy, he is a very sweet and handsome teenage Dober-boy! He does excellent with cats so kitty folks please apply!!
