My name is Zed!

Zed is a bright, eager-to-please youngster who’s quickly growing into a well-mannered companion. He’s an adventurous spirit with plenty of energy, making him a perfect match for someone who loves getting outside and staying active.

He gets along wonderfully with other pets and would thrive in a home with furry siblings who enjoy playtime as much as he does. One of his favorite games is tug-of-war — if there’s a toy involved, Zed is all in!

Zed is making great progress with potty training. He’ll bark or whine to let you know when he needs to go, though he’s still working on getting out the door in time. With patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, he’s well on his way to mastering it.

If you’re looking for a fun-loving, affectionate, and energetic companion who’s ready for a lifetime of adventure, Zed might be your perfect match!

This pup was rescued from a high kill shelter in Texas.

We have no additional back story or update for this dog at this time.  When we do, it will be updated here.  This is all the information we have currently.

• Approved Applicants may make the adoption fee payment by clicking donate above.  Partial adoption fees will not hold a dog.


• If upon meeting the dog of your choosing at your scheduled pickup time you find that you aren't a good match, your deposit will be fully refunded.


• Adoption fees include vaccines up until time of adoption, microchip, spay/neuter and 1st 30 days of free pet insurance.  We are not affiliated with MetLife pet insurance. (you have to sign up for the insurance or it will not go into effect).  Adoption fees help cover the medical care of the animals while he or she waits for a new home, as well as food and transportation costs. These fees help to provide care for the other animals in the shelter or rescue group who may have medical bills that are much higher than any possible adoption fee. The money also acts as a donation to help support the organization as a whole, allowing the group to continue its efforts to rescue and rehome pets.


• The dogs in our care are fostered in Colorado, Texas, and New Mexico.  While all dogs are picked up during our scheduled times, sometimes transport dates change due to unforeseen circumstances.
