Zena

My story

Zena’s past is heartbreaking. From what we were able to learn, she was left behind when her owner was evicted—tied to a tree with no food or water. Despite everything she’s endured, Zena’s spirit remains gentle, loving, and hopeful, and we know her forever family is still out there. This 11.5-year-old golden girl is petite at 54 pounds and absolutely adores people. She is best suited for a home with young teens and would thrive as the only pet. Zena is house-trained, crate-trained, and knows her basic cues like sit, down, and touch. She enjoys mental enrichment and playtime (treat mats are a favorite!), but once inside, she’s happy to curl up and relax! Zena is currently in a temporary foster home where she’s been nothing short of a rock star. Now all she needs is a loving, forever home where she can finally feel safe, cherished, and home for good.If you are interested in learning more contact our placement team at the Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter:E: Adoption@hempsteadny.govE: Foster@hempsteadny.govE: Rescue@hempsteadny.govT. 516.785.5220Wantagh Long Island, New York#mixedbreed #petitepup #rescued #rescuedog #instadog #dogsofnewyork #nycdogs #longislanddogs
