Zara

Introducing Zara, a delightful one-year-old bundle of affection and unwavering devotion. Zara's journey began when we saved her from a high-kill shelter in Texas, narrowly escaping a grim fate. It's evident that someone may have treated her unkindly, as she initially displays timidity (cowers) around unfamiliar people. However, with time, love, and a reassuring touch, Zara will blossom into the best version of herself. In her nurturing foster home, Zara is flourishing, thanks to her work-at-home foster parents who provide ample human interaction and the attention she craves. She's a snuggling pro, always seeking reassurance and showering you with boundless love. While Zara prefers not to be confined in a kennel at any time, she's potty trained and she will get used to the kennel once she realizes that it is not used as punishment. Zara can be a bit picky with other dogs, but she does have some doggy friends she adores! She is too interested in cats and tries to get to them, so a home without cats is best. It's important to note that she's best suited for a home with children over the age of 10 as she doesn't always realize her size. She will playfully nibble on you when she wants someone to pet her. Zara needs to be in an environment where those around her understand and respect her boundaries as she continues to heal and learns to trust that she'll never experience harm again. When Zara knows and trusts you, she'll eagerly leap onto you, expressing her love through her endearing, expressive eyes and a hug. Zara delights in a balanced blend of indoor and outdoor play and finds pure joy in basking in the warm sun. If you're in search of an affectionate and loyal companion perfectly suited to a work-from-home lifestyle or an active where you’ll bring your dog with you all over, Zara is the ideal addition to your life. She is up to date on vaccinations, on monthly heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, microchipped, has been dewormed multiple times, and spayed. Your future furry friend is healthy and ready for a loving home! Ready to make Zara a permanent part of your family?
