Zippy

My story

Are you looking for a "perfectly sized" companion with a heart of gold? Meet Zippy, a 2-year-old Shepherd mix who clocks in at an ideal 48 lbs. He’s the ultimate blend of active adventurer and world-class lounge act. Zippy is a gentle soul who hasn't met a stranger he didn't like. Whether he's tossing a tennis ball in the air to catch it himself or snoozing at your feet, he just wants to be part of the "pack." He thrives with other dogs! In his foster home, he spends his days roughhousing with his fur-brother. He is a total gentleman in the car and is always ready for a drive-thru Pup Cup. He walks beautifully on a leash and loves exploring the neighborhood. Zippy adores children and would be a patient, loving addition to a family with kids. He has a touch of separation anxiety, so he likes to know where his humans are in the house. He is fully crate trained and will greet you with the most adorable "woo-woo" barks and wiggles when you get home! Zippy would love a family that appreciates both his playful side and his chill mode. Another dog in the home would be great but he would also be content just having dog friends. He would be a great fit with someone that works from home, a retired couple or a young family.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Zippy, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
