About Zoey’s Breed:
Terrier mixes are often intelligent, energetic, and full of personality. They thrive with structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement. With proper outlets for their energy and clear routines, they grow into loyal and engaging companions. Zoey already shows how quickly she learns when given praise and treats.
Zoey’s Story & Personality:
Zoey is a bright, high-energy girl who does best with structure and routine — especially daily walks, which are very important for her. She is currently working on housebreaking and leash training and will need continued patience and consistency. Praise and treats go a long way with her, as she is very food motivated and eager to please.
She sleeps soundly all night in her crate and enjoys cozy afternoon naps on a lap. She loves riding in the car and enjoys being close to her person.
Zoey does have some fear issues she is still working through and will need a patient adopter who can give her time to build confidence and open up. She cannot jump down from the couch or go downstairs on her own and must be carried for safety. She goes upstairs just fine.
With time, routine, and reassurance, Zoey will continue blossoming into a confident and devoted companion.
Zoey’s Ideal Home:
Patient adopter committed to continued training
Would do great with another playful pup in the house
Structured home with consistent daily walks
Someone willing to carry her down stairs and off furniture
Calm, understanding environment to help her build confidence
A family ready for both activity and lap snuggles
Ready to Help a Smart Girl Shine?
Zoey is looking for someone who will give her time, encouragement, and routine. In return, she’ll offer loyalty, intelligence, and sweet companionship every single day.
