My story

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

BE SURE TO SEE ALL OF ZEKE'S VIDEOS!
They are in the text of this write-up. Zeke has star potential and is a true scene-stealer.

Here's what you should know about Zeke:

*He is an awesome BIG dog!

*He loves his foster family, their dogs, and people friends.

*His foster family paid to have an Embark DNA test on Zeke. It is one of the best ones.

*Zeke is 45% German Shepherd, 28% Dogo Argentino (??), 13% Siberian Husky, 14% of Belgian Malinois, and Australian Cattle Dog. But he is what we call a "Shepsky," a German Shepherd mix who loves to talk like a Husky.

*Zeke weighs 91 pounds

*If you love to take long walks, runs, and hikes, Zeke is YOUR guy.

*Zeke would love to live in a home where he can be an active part of the family, sleep on your bed, AND be the bestie to your dog.

He LOVES other dogs. LOVES. OTHER. DOGS. Check out how social he is at Doggy Day Care in this video. He has such a blast going to Cage Free K-9 Camp 1x-2x a week. Cut and paste the YouTube link here and see how other dogs love him: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/cQ82Efw3AOU

So if you have a playful dog, Zeke would love to be his/her best friend. His ideal home would make Zeke an active part of all family activities. He likes being part of the action. Here is a YouTube video of Zeke and two of the dogs that live in his foster home:

Zeke also loves people. He loves to be wherever his foster family is. He loves the ladies...heh-heh. But he is also good with men. He loves his long hikes with his foster dad. Check out Zeke being all flirtatious in his Valentine's Day Video: https://youtube.com/shorts/SlP1hyGjQBw?feature=share

As for cats, his foster home has 4 cats. While Zeke does not attack them, he does want to herd them. He is getting so much better. But if you have cats, you need to use a calm and assertive NO with Zeke so he does not chase them. He does NOT want to hurt the cats in his foster home. Zeke has so much play in him; his kind of play is not how cats roll. :)

Zeke was rescued from the shelter over Labor Day weekend in 2022. He has been in his foster home ever since. The only reason they have not committed to adopting him is because they have two senior citizen small dogs. Zeke so badly wants to play with the senior citizen dogs, and sometimes they play with him. But most of the time, they want Zeke to leave them alone so they can nap and be 14-year-old dogs. Zeke is nothing but athletic love. Zeke is also very loyal. He loves his family and has a baritone bark. His foster family loves this and says Zeke's bark is way better than any security alarm!

Zeke also enjoys scrolling on Facebook and Instagram. He also has quite a friend following on his Instagram post shares here: https://www.instagram.com/p/ConupPqvWjS/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

If you think you are the home that will give Zeke the love, exercise, structure, socialization, and another dog companion, boy-howdy, would he love to meet you!! Check out both videos on Zeke's listing. Here is Zeke just chilling, watching his foster mom while she rides her Peloton (he is such a good boy): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhuKPZ7vj20
