My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Zeus! A sweetheart of a boy who loves everyone he meets! Look out cause he’s a licker! He was found on the streets in Texas and came to us at a meek 56lbs and HW positive which he has been successfully treated for and is now negative. Hooray! After finding out that he is just very bougie and didn’t have any medical reasons to be so skinny, he has since almost doubled his weight and is 101 lbs now. When he takes treats it is oh so gentle. He may not eat them though because like we said he’s bougie, or he thinks it’s poisoned…or it’s a Tuesday and his ear twitched… who knows? The vet thinks he is older, at least 5 so he groans like an old man when he gets up, and prefers to nap or chew on a tennis ball but for sure to always be by your side. He loves kids that want to treat him gently and understand he has some arthritis. Again, the grumpy ol man doesn’t want to be roughhousing around. Zeus is house and crate trained, knows all his commands including place, but does them kind of when he wants. He just doesn’t feel the need to perform and impress anyone. At class he preferred to lay and watch everyone else in between naps! He desperately would like a kitty or 2 to be his BFF. He loves them! He has been in a foster home with other dogs and would prefer to be in a home without other dogs as he is old and set in his ways and would like to have all the balls and attention just for him. He just wants a warm safe home and spot on the couch next to his humans to spend the rest of his days. If you think you are the right home for him I can promise you’ll never be alone and will be sung to every morning. I think he might have some rooster DNA. But you can thrown away that alarm clock because Zeus has you covered! He will make you start your day laughing and smiling.

More about this rescue

R.E.A.L Rottweiler Rescue was founded in 2003 by a couple with a passion and love for the Rottweiler breed. We are an all volunteer based 501c3 non-profit rescue organization. Our primary focus has been on Rottweilers, but we also rescue medium and large sized dogs of all breeds. We take in homeless rottweilers and work with them in our homes to assess personality, temperament, training and needs. Then place them up for adoption. Our goal is to find not just any home for each dog, but the perfect match for both the dog and its new family. To date, R.E.A.L. has had over 2000 successful adoptions!
