Story
I had a housemate for about a year and a half. They decided to adopt a dog, without letting me know. About five months later, they left and have not been incontact since, except through a mutual acquaintance who let me know that they are not doing well and will not be back to take care of Bazorka. I love Bazorka - he is a big, goofy puppy - emphasis on BIG. I cannot walk him - I don't have the upper body strength to wrestle with him until he's trained. I also have my own dog (a Boston, so more manageable, lol) and before my housemate left I had a rescue dog placed in my home. So I went from one dog to three in a short period of time, and with no input on number 3. I have really wrestled with re-homing Zorka, because honestly he's a big floppy ball of goof that just doesn't realize that shoes are not for eating, branches won't fit through the doggie door, and his brain doesn't realize (yet) how big his body is.
