My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

"ZORBA" is a German shepherd mix, about 3,5 years old and weighs aprox. 30 kg. or 66 lbs.
A while ago, one of our team members needed to pull off the road to take a call from Anastasia. As luck would have it, while parked, she noticed this tiny ball of fur, curled up and shivering close to the car. He was only 65 days old, a tiny, wet and scared pup who could barely walk. After making sure that there were no siblings around, she took him to our vet and then to our sanctuary. We have been looking after him since that day.
Now, he’s been fully vetted and vaccinated, micro-chipped, and neutered. We have also worked daily to fully leash train and housebreak him.
"ZORBA" is a bit hesitant when meeting new people but he loosens up quickly. Once he’s gained your trust, he turns into this incredibly kind, sweet, very kissy, adorable bear. SPFG volunteers call him "BACLAVA" because he has so much sugar! He is the kind of dog that will restore your good spirits on a miserable day. He is also playful with other animals and all of his doggie friends, from the tiniest to the largest. All the pups at our sanctuary adore handsome “ZORBA”.
He would make an excellent companion for any family. If interested in adopting our affectionate "ZORBA", please visit our website to fill out an application at: www.straypawsfromgreece.com
