Story
Meet Zeus! Breed: american bulldog mix. Age: approx 3 years. Weight: 62lbs at intake, we believe he should be about 65-70lbs. Training: crate and leash trained, doing well with house training on his Foster's routine. Good with other dogs/cats? Yes to dogs. He did fine with the cat upon intake. We will retest as usual, if anyone interested has cats. Good with adults/kids? Yes to both! Personality: friendly, outgoing, and playful. Reason for rescue: unclaimed stray. Zeus showed up at someone's home and didn't leave. Animal control was closed so he rode around with a cop until a safe place could be found. Zeus is very friendly and has never met a stranger. He appears to be mostly deaf. He is neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and current on vaccinations and preventatives. If interested in adding this sweet baby to your family, please message for an adoption application! Adoption fee: $75.September 8, 2025, 9:00 pm
