If you can provide a loving foster home for Zeus, please go to https://www.charliedog.org/services and let us know, Charlie to the Rescue! will try to find a rescue to work with you to pull and pay the expenses for Zeus, while in your care.

Zeus is a big, goofy, affectionate boy who is struggling in the shelter environment and would benefit from rescue placement.

He has been friendly and wiggly with staff, enjoys walks, and loves playing fetch. Zeus is very people-oriented, leaning into pets and happily taking treats. He knows cues like sit and paw and is housetrained. Zeus previously lived with children, but due to his size and enthusiasm, older kids would likely be the best fit.

He has shown fixation on other dogs in the shelter, so he would currently do best as the only pet while continuing training outside of the shelter.

During medical handling, Zeus has been very reactive and will likely need sedation until he can be worked with on this. His previous home reported that he does not like his hind end touched. If a rescue wants to move forward, we will sedate and do his exam at the same time.
