Life’s a hoot with Zoot!
Hi pals! My name is Zoot. I’m a happy-go-lucky gal with a heart of gold. I’m a 4-year-old, 52-pound terrier mix. I was initially rescued from Mexico in 2021 and adopted into a loving home. Unfortunately, due to some unforeseen hardships (unrelated to me), I need to find a new furever family. I’ve proven myself as a good girl and I hope I can start a new chapter with you! I am receiving Cytopoint injections and eating Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Adult Ultamino Dry Dog Food for allergies (~$125.00 per bag, prices may vary on market value and where purchased) to manage my allergies successfully. Must consult with a veterinarian and monitor skin issues longterm.
Whether it’s paddle boarding, going to the Coronado dog beach, or a trip up to the snow—I’m up for the adventure! I’m a friendly girl who loves playing with other pooches at doggy daycare or at the park but would be better at home as an only dog. I am a very active girl and I love chasing after balls and sticks. I’m a big fan of all people, kids too! I like chasing after cats and bunnies, so we probably wouldn’t make the best roommates. Even though I’m an active girl, I also adore cuddling with my people. I can be quite the couch potato! I’m happiest whenever I’m with my humans.
If I’m not exploring out in public, I like running laps in the yard, going for a swim, and taking good old fashion walks. I am working through some leash reactivity and making great strides with positive reinforcement training, and working on my barrier reactivity when dogs walk by "my fence".
I’m a well-behaved gal who never has accidents in the house. I can hold it for quite some time if needed. I have a bark that can scare off intruders, but once I know it’s a friend, I’ll greet them with a wagging tail. I’m a great protector! I can be in the crate for a little while and sometimes I just use it as a place to nap. I am not a fan of sharing my food (honestly, who is?!) and working on resource guarding. I’m a good girl who listens to commands and can’t wait to keep learning from you!
I would love to be in a home with an active person or family to share adventures with. I will be a great running pawtner. I think I would do best as an only dog to get all your love and food! I promise to always be your loyal loving girl in return. I’m the most deserving pooch and would love a second chance at a furever home with you! My adoption fee is $250 and that includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip.
