Arrival Story:
My bestfriend called me and told me that he had picked up a dog off his road after watching someone throw him out of a moving cars window.. HORRIBLE! I brought him home immediately and have been working w/ him ever since.

Bio:
It's more than obvious that he was abused very badly at his previous residence and if you raise your voice or give him a mean look or raise your hand towards him (even to stroke or pet him) he will always cower (even w/ me) and pee all over the floor. He usually rolls over (showing you he's being submissive) and ends up peeing on you. He also suffer from really bad seperation anxiety problems and if left out of his crate and unattended he will chew up garbage bags and anything paper in his reach. He needs to be placed in another home bc things here are just too busy and stressful for him. When I got Harley things only got worse. He's a very jealous dog but not in any way aggressive. He needs to be the only dog and we just can't give him that here. He's a handful and half. But bc I love him and feel so badly for him I could never take him to a shelter, not even a no-kill.

Too Harsh a Description!

Because he has so many issues and has such a hard time transitioning to any new situation Zeus has become a permanent member of our pack. Even after living with us for a little over 2yrs he still has a lot of issues probably due to his past. I love him very much and am glad to have found him.

 

His Description Seemed a Little Harsh to Me!

I just read over Zeus's description and I feel that I was a little too harsh on him! lol. He really is an extremely sweet dog and know that he has the potential to be a wonderful pet. But he's definately not for a newbie in the area of "dogs w/ pasts". He needs someone who is willing to put in the extra time everyday to work on training him, walking him, playing w/ him and an extra dose of patience definately wouldn't be gone amiss! He's a beautiful pup w/ the best intentions but I really think he just had a bad start. And since I can't give him my full attention I can't give him what he really needs. I could never take him to a rescue/ humane society even if they're no kill bc I'm too afraid someone will adopt him bc he looks so cute, take him home, realize what a handful he is and basically dump him out of a window like his last "owner" did(if that's what you call things (people) who do things like that). I just couldn't abandon him like that. I'm an animal lover of all sorts. I consider them to be my children and I only want the best for my Zeus. But if anyone is interested you can always contact me!
