Adopt-a-Dog: Zoey

May 17, 2012

This little tank is Zoey – she’s a phenomenal girl and ready to be in a home again. She was surrendered to the shelter because her human unexpectedly lost his job and the family couldn’t afford to take care of her any longer. Here are Zoey’s top ten attributes:

(1) she’s house-trained
(2) she’s lived with cats (and didn’t pay attention to them while at the groomer)
(3) she’s great in the car
(4) she lived with children and was a perfect lady when meeting a 5 year old girl
(5) she has excellent outdoor lunch manners – no begging from her at all
(6) she doesn’t mind walking through crowds of people
(7) she walks really well on a gentle leader
(8) she’s affectionate but not needy
(9) she does well with other dogs
(10) she’s overall a medium-energy girl, but every now and again likes to get her zoomies out.

She has no issues with body handling like having her mouth, paws or tail touched, and has no issues with food. Zoey was playful, friendly and wiggly when she met some of her doggie friends at the shelter but she does seem to prefer being the top dawg so please bring your resident dogs down to meet her and they will let you know if they’d like to live with one another! Families with children under 10 should also bring them along. Please consider adopting beautiful, loving Zoey!

Zoey is in the Pen Pal program at ACCT. She has two volunteers dedicated to finding her a great home or foster. Her Pen Pals also spend quality time with Zoey trying to keep her as stress free as possible while living in the shelter. If you have any questions about Zoey or about adopting from ACCT, contact either katherine.acct{at}gmail{dot}com or larakelly{at}comcast{dot}net.
