This helps Wags & Whiskers Animal Rescue with pet care costs.
Zeus is a young, approximately 4 year-old, 55-lb American Staffordshire Terrier mix who has a beautiful, brown brindle coat with a white chest and paws. Zeus has a confident, submissive temperament with a medium-to-low energy level. He’s a great combination of smart, loyal, and eager to please.
Zeus found his way to Minnesota by way of Chattanooga, Tennessee when he was a little over a year-old. He was adopted from the Humane Society in May of 2022 and spent some time living on the UofM campus (where he clearly learned to cuddle), before he was ultimately surrendered to Wags for foster care.
He’s completely house-trained and even alerts his people when its to go out. He’s great with kids, people and other dogs. He loves his chew toys and knows they’re the only things he can chew or destroy. He’s a quick learner.
Zeus is not kennel trained but there’s probably no need for it at this point. When left alone at home he just naps.
While learning to be alone for the first few weeks his biggest infraction was barking, never destruction. The barks got shorter every day until the day when he noticed he was going to be left alone, jumped on the couch, curled up and never made another noise. Again, he’s a quick learner.
Zeus would do best in a home without cats. His limited exposure and prey drive might be difficult to manage.
When walking on-leash he ‘heels’ but doesn't react to other dogs so long as his leader is leading. He will not pull or lead if not allowed to.
Zeus is a GREAT dog. He’s young and somebody is going to enjoy a great life with him.
