Story
ABOUT RUSTY & ZOOMIE Zoomie is a spunky 6-year-old Jack Russell mix, and his best friend Rusty is a 9-year-old Shih Tzu mix. These boys came to HAP when their owner was no longer able to care for them. Despite being in the shelter, Rusty and Zoomie remain an inseparable, spirited pair who love adventures and attention. Both are affectionate, food-motivated, and full of personality. They’re sweet with each other but show classic sibling competitiveness when it comes to getting pets. Rusty may vocalize for attention, while Zoomie is the quieter one. After playtime, they’re happy to curl up, cuddle, and even snore themselves to sleep. They’ve done well meeting new people and even thrive in our Doggy Day Out program! Here's what our volunteers had to say about them: "We had a wonderful time with Rusty and Zoomie! They were practically attached at the hip when we took them for a walk at Carousel Park. Then we took them home for toys, cuddles and treats. Rusty loved the stuffed toys we had lying around and Zoomie is a tug of war champion! After a while they started falling asleep snoring!" - Avery "Since we started taking them out 2 weeks ago, they have greatly improved on the leash and are well mannered. They settle very quickly in the car now, and are smart cookies who have learned the route we take. We even took them to a little playground and rusty is great at figuring out little obstacles. Zoomie is fantastic at sit with and without a treat, and they are both very food motivated so I’m sure they can both learn so much!" - Allison "We had a great Thanksgiving day with Rusty and Zoomie! They're the cutest little guys. They love each other but are also a little competitive, like true brothers - if you were petting one then the other one had to come by and get his fair share too. Rusty would even whimper and bark a little if he didn't get tended to immediately, but zoomie never barked. They also enjoyed all the treats except our baby carrots. Zoomie wasn't as much of a fan of the chewy stick though. We also found out that zoomie loves to play catch and even catches the toy midair sometimes! He will play catch for as long as you will throw the toy. They enjoyed exploring our backyard. And we did eventually have some (short lived) quiet time too. They are such spunky boys and I hope they find their furever home soon!" - Wes If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.
