Adopt ZITO a Red/Golden/Orange/Chestnut - with White Chow Chow / Mixed dog in
Location:
Eastsound, WA
Description:
Meet ZITO - an approx. 4yr. old Chowchow! Zito is on Orcas Island, WA living with and on the property of the Founder of ADR.org (AnimalDefense Rescue.org) since the 19th of August. ZITO was rescued from a high Kill shelter in Palmdale, CA because he came in stray, like most of the dogs that are abandoned in the desert areas, or dumped like trash in areas where there is nothing to feed on or drink. Activists say the growing abandonment of dogs in CA has created an epidemic and many are turning a blind eye to.“Out of sight is out of mind for a lot of people they don’t want to think that other people do that and its evil,” activists say. And that is exactly what ZITO had to experience. ZITO was listed as euthanization candidate because he was too nervous and was not an "adoption candidate". It does not need a lot to be killed in these shelters every day. He was over 3 weeks at a vet clinic and was treated via IV to heal his Canine Coronavirus pneumonia and could not be neutered during that time at first. ZITO brings now 54 lbs. to the scale, is neutered and up to date with vaccinations, as well he is microchipped. Based on his behavior assessment, ADR.org describes him as such: ZITO is first timid with dogs he is not familiar with yet (especially females). He becomes playful with dogs that initiate his attempt to play and run around. If he cannot gauge a dog, he keeps his distance but tries later on to engage. He is calm, considerate and likes the company of a person he trusts. Within a week his behavior on leash went from "flee mode" to orderly walking and taking his time for sniffs. He adapted quite well and quick to structure being daily routines or commands. And newest pleasure he has found is getting belly scratches. He enjoys running and romping with Nicki who is also posted (both came at the same time with ground transport to WA. There are a lot of videos that ADR.org will share with you once a contact has been established.ADR.org definitively will recommend a dog-savvy adopter with acreage and a fenced outside, and ideally another dog that would fit his personality. A family environment with too many people coming and going without paying attention to him, and young children under 12 would not be the environment ZITO would be thriving in.ChowChow love and respect "their" human and do not like hectic and chaos. If you are committed to give ZITO what he deserves after all the ordeal he went through, and you want to give him a good home for the rest of his life, then please contact ADR.org by sending an email to: XXXX@animaldefenserescue.org introducing yourself and sending some photos along. ADR.org and ZITO will then review all and schedule a call with you to get to know you better before sending and application.ADR.org will not respond to and FB messages. WE look forward to receiving mail from you! WOOFLY, ZITO
