Zia’s journey hasn’t been easy, but you’d never know it from the love she gives. Rescued from a hoarding and neglect situation where she lived with 11 other dogs without even basic necessities like water, this brave girl has truly blossomed. Now, she’s ready to trade her past for a future filled with safety, affection, and a family of her own.
Zia may be shy when you first meet her, but give her a little time and patience and she’s all yours. She has classic puppy energy and loves to play. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs, happily romping with playful pups and respectfully giving older dogs their space. Zia is extremely intelligent and very food motivated, which makes training both fun and rewarding. She’s eager to learn and eager to please!
