Description:

Meet Zander!

Zander is seriously one handsome guy! His movie star looks are only the beginging his personality is where his real charm shines! He is a happy dog and we can tell he was well-loved by his prior owner. He does not want to let his foster out of his sight!

Zander is still a youngster and needs to learn his manners when he gets excited. He is actually very trainable and his forever family need to be ready to dedicate time to obedience training.

Zander takes redirection well and is eager to learn. Here is an example of how good this boy is. When his foster first started taking him on walks, she would ask him to sit at every street intersection. At first he was resistant -. Then, he learned what was expected of him, and at every intersection she just needed to say "sit" once and Zander sat and looked up at her and "smiled".

Zander is working on proper leash manners and would love a home that can give him both mental and physical exercise/outlets. He would be a star pupul in training! He would make a great agility candidiate!

Zander loves to cuddle, loves the older neighbor kids and will be an irresistible addition to the right family! He would not do well in a home with cats as he does have a high prey drive.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
