Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Zorro is a 4 year old brindle male with natural ears. He came into rescue due to domestic violence in the home. Zorro's original owner said he lived with cats and other dogs-a Dane, Shepherd, mini Schnauzer, and Pekingese. He also lived with 2 teenagers. This poor boy was found as a puppy living in a basement of an abandoned house, he was very skinny and was eating the sheet rock and insulation. Now he's been uprooted again after 3 years of living in a home. When he came into rescue he was thin and had a skin infection which made his coat look like it was moth eaten, sores and was very dry. The boarding facility where he is staying has been working on his food issues. His owner said when its feeding time, he seems to panic like he's not going to get his food and he'll run in his crate. While she was putting his bowl in his crate he would growl but never attempted to bite, he just wants his food. She would lock the door and walk away. When he's finished he'd cry/whine to let you know he's done and wants to come out. His boarding facility has never seen Zorro growl when its feeding time. They put the bowl down and when they walk out of his area he'll then go over and eat. He's very gentle when you hand feed him. Zorro needs a foster home to work with him, this poor boy hasn't had it easy, it's about time someone cuts him a break.
