Zeus found himself at a Kentucky shelter as an owner surrender. We were told that he nipped at the children in his previous home but have no further information about that potential issue. He was terrified in the kennel at the shelter but turned into a TOTAL lovebug once out of there. Zeus arrived at the vet clinic a little over a week ago and received all of his needed vetting including getting microchipped and started on heartworm and flea/tick preventatives. He has been full of wiggles and kisses for everyone at the clinic. He lived with other dogs at his previous home and tested great with other dogs at the shelter. He has not been temperament tested with cats.
12/22 UPDATE: Zeus moved to his Indiana foster home today. We have learned that Zeus can be a little possessive of toys and bones...we will work on that with him. We will update with pictures and other information soon!!
5/10 UPDATE...Zeus is doing FABULOUS!! He has had no nippy incidents in his foster home. He sits for treats and waits his turn. He gently takes treats from hand. He is totally housetrained. He loves toys and loves playing with other dogs of all sizes. Zeus does not bother the cats. He goes into his crate on his own. He does not like other dogs around his food, but that is not an issue when crated (he is fed in his crate as foster mom does all of her foster dogs). Zeus has a lot of energy, but loves curling up to human. He walks well on leash. He is a very gentle dog.
