ZEUS is a stunning young German Shepherd. He is a very gentle, loving pup who wants to go everywhere with his foster family.

Zeus is going to be a wonderful family dog and will bond quickly with his new family!  He's mostly housebroken and is well behaved in the house. He will need some more training as he is still a young puppy with a tendency to want to chew.

Zeus is crate trained (though he doesn't like it and would much rather sit at your feet).  He just wants to know he's loved and to love you in return.

OTHER DOGS:   yes, currently lives with another male German Shepherd and does great. He is very playful and would love a doggie buddy to play with!
CATS:  unknown, would have to be tested 
KIDS:  good. Zeus has been around kids as young as 6 years old. We expect that he would do great with very young children due to his gentle nature.
IDEAL HOME:  an active family who will train him and love him forever!!! 

IF you're looking for a gorgeous, loyal, playful pup, ZEUS is your lifelong companion and buddy!

 

ZEUS's ADOPTION FEE:   $350
This fee covers only part of what we spend on vetting and boarding the dogs we save, and has not changed in 7 years despite dramatic hikes in vet and boarding prices.  Our average cost per dog is now over $450.   At minimum your adoption fee includes the dog's spay/neuter, heartworm test, heartworm treatment if needed, rabies shot, distemper/parvo shot, bordatella shot, deworming and microchip.  In many cases it also includes surgery, bloodwork, X-rays, and treatment and medications for conditions such as thyroid, ear infections, eye problems, skin conditions and many others.

STOP!! READ THIS BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER!

1. We're picky about our adopters. 
2. Are you sure you're up to having a GSD?  They're not for everyone.  They take a lot of time, effort, training.  They shed year round.  They're big.  They scare lots of people.  They "mouth" and herd.  They're usually strong-willed and stubborn.  You have to have references and a home visit.  If you're not willing or able to deal with any of this, please don't waste your time or ours applying.  
   
3. Will the dog be an inside family pet? We do not adopt to outdoor-only homes. All dogs must be indoor dogs.
4. Do you leave your dog outdoors when you're not home?   We do not adopt to homes that leave their animals outside when they're gone.  You must put your dogs indoors when you're gone.  A 3 yr old adopted MOGS dog died when the owners went to run errands, left her outdoors, the gate was somehow opened, and she was hit by a car.  Tragic and 100% preventable. Even privacy fences get broken into.  Gates are opened.  Thieves steal dogs. Never leave your dog outdoors when you're not home!!
   
5. What's your plan for unexpected events and major changes?  New baby? Divorce?  Moving?   How you will provide for your dog if your family breaks up? 
   
6. Will you make a lifetime commitment?  It's your responsibility to keep your dog safe, loved and cared for FOR LIFE.
7.  Do you understand we expect you to keep that lifetime commitment?  It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to stick by your family member -- no matter what.
8. Are you unable or unwilling to make a lifetime commitment? Do not apply.
