My personality

My story

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

Please meet Zia!! Zia was found in a filthy garage, surrounded by her own waste, with severe skin conditions, patches of missing fur, and painful ear infections. She was in desperate need of a bath and appeared to have been bred and then discarded. Despite everything she’s been through, Zia is a 3-4-year-old, 70-pound bundle of joy with a happy, goofy demeanor and an ever-present smile.

She adores people, is fine with other dogs, and is always up for car rides and adventures. Zia enjoys exploring busy city streets just as much as she loves being out in nature. She isn’t fazed by cars, buses, bikes, or skateboards. She does have a prey drive, especially for squirrels, which is pretty common of course.

Zia has a lot of love to give! She will thrive with people who will continue her training with basic manners and obedience. She does pulls on the leash but we are working on that. She gets happy and excited when she meets people and will jump on them but that too we are working on. She thinks she’s a tiny gal lol and doesn’t realize her own strength. All in all, Zia is a lovely pooch who will be a great addition to the fam.

If you are interested in fostering or adopting this great girl, please email info@tufftails.org! Zia is spayed and up to date with vaccine and housebroken. She is currently located in Queens NY and we are looking to stay within the NYC/Long Island tristate areas. Thank you!!!!
