Story
Zach is fostered in the Hamilton area.Apply to adopt at rebeldogrescue.com. All adoptions with Rebel Dog Rescue have a 15 day probation period. Read about our adoption process on our website. Zach is close to as perfect as they come. We seriously could go on about him all day! He is an absolute joy to have around and will make a wonderful addition to a home. He is the perfect mix of playful and chill, and is the sweetest boy around. He is currently fostered with two dogs, similar in size to him, and has been fantastic. He wants to play from time to time, but is very respectful of giving the other dogs space when they aren't interested in a game of chase. Zach does very well in his crate, settling to sleep after some soft whining during the first few days. He has been non-reactive on walks, but does pull quite a bit, so he will need some work with this. Zach absolutely loves tennis balls, and is happiest laying on the couch getting belly rubs, while chomping down on a ball. However, he does need to be supervised with toys as he will destroy them. He loves to zoom around the backyard, and the end of the day all he wants to do is sit beside you on the couch and doze off to sleep with his head on your lap. One things to note about Zach, is that he is a bit of a chunky dude, and needs to trim down. His new family will need to work on dropping about 12-15lb to get him to a healthy weight.
