Zia’s journey hasn’t been easy, but her heart is as big as her dreams of finding a family to love. Rescued from a hoarding/neglect situation where she lived with 11 other dogs and lacked even basic necessities like water, this brave girl has blossomed into a gentle, affectionate companion. She may be shy at first, but once she feels safe in your home, she’s all in — snuggles, loyalty, and love included.
Zia adores being close to her people, curling up for nighttime cuddles, and playing with other friendly dogs. She’s respectful of older dogs who need their space and happily romps with younger ones. Smart, adaptable, and eager to please, Zia is well on her way to being the perfect family companion.
