Story
This big hunk of love is looking for his new forever family. As a young puppy, he was adopted last November with his brother. Unfortunately, a sibling rivalry has sparked, and they now fight every time they see each other.  After seeking help from dog trainers, his previous owner asked us to find Zambia a new home where he can happily be the king canine of the household.  Zambia is an incredibly sweet dog who loves people. Some of his favorite activities are cuddling with toys, and watching TV with you. He has medium energy and is slightly anxious, so an active home where he can be the only dog would be ideal. He gets along great with other dogs outside of his home and has never had issues at doggy daycare. He's just prefers to be the solo pooch in his home.   Please submit an application if you are interested in this special fellow! ##2100541##
