Story
Age: 2.5 Years Weight: 76 lbs. Good with dogs: Yes Good with cats: No Good with kids: Yes - Older Energy Level: Med Available for Adoption: 7/27/24- Applications need to be approved before a meet and greet will be set up for any Fetching Hearts Rescue dogs. This handsome guy Zeus was found by the interstate. He was brought to the shelter in Mississippi, where we for surely thought his people would come get him. Well, that never happened and poor Zeus was found looking to be saved. Fetching Hearts Rescue came to his rescue. He is not only beautiful guy but extremely loving. Here is what Zeus has to say for himself: I am a very good boy! I am an adult male dog with a lot of love to give. I am loving, smart, I love to play, explore, and learn new things. I am also affectionate, funny, friendly, gentle, and loyal. I am a well-rounded dog with a lot of love in my heart and a energy to keep up! I am good with children and people, and I love to give kisses and be petted. I am also a good listener and will always be there for you when you need me. I love going on walks and playing with toys and would love a family to call my own. I enjoy playing with my dog friends as you can see in my video. I am a big guy, so I would love a fenced yard to run around and be with you while doing fun stuff. Older kids would be best, since I am a big galute. If you think you could give me a loving forever home and want me to be part of your family, please apply for me today!!!

PLEASE NOTE! Unless stated otherwise, our dogs and puppies are located in Arkansas, and transported to the north/northeast once adopted. We do occasionally have dogs/puppies placed in foster homes in the north/northeast. In the cases where the pet is somewhere other than Arkansas, it will be noted beside the name of the pet.Are you a man who needs a dog? This is your dude right here! Bruno thinks women are ok too, but he definitely prefers men. He loves kids and other dogs too!From his foster mom:Bruno, aka Bruce, Big Bruce, Biggen. Approx. 80lb Lab/Dane Mix. About 2 years old. He’s a man’s dog. That’s all. Ever since we rescued this baby, he has been attached to my husband’s (BJ) hip. Tho, when our 8 year old son comes around, it’s all about him! He’s still nervous, so he’s warming up to me. Him & the dogs act like they’ve been long lost sisters and brothers and known each other their whole lives. He’s a gentle giant who thinks he’s a lap dog.  Forgot to let him in the bedroom last night, barking at me in the middle of the night, opened the door, and he’s attached to BJ’s leg on his side of the bed. We love him. He’s a man’s dog. Thats all. Stay tuned for more of Bruno’s updates. He is going to be looking for his forever home very soon so plz tell ya boys to consider this sweet boy.Located in Arkansas, but transport is available.
