General Notes | Sweet Zeppelin has experienced a lot of change in his short life! He's moved houses, adapted to new people, and has been the most wonderful puppy.

Want to adopt this dog? Please do not email us. Please fill out the Adoption Application ASAP.

Personality | Zeppelin is smart, patient, flexible, and continues to adapt to changing environments! He has learned the rules of his foster home fast, and done well in following them. He is sweet as they come - a total love, truly!

Story | Despite his short life thus far, Zeppelin's road has been far from easy. He was initially adopted by a young adult at 8 weeks old, who then realized how hard having a puppy can be and decided to give him up. Because of this, Zeppelin bounced from place to place, without much stability in his caregivers or his environment, and eventually landed with a foster. Now, he is looking for his forever!

Other Dogs | Zeppelin is great with other dogs. Playful, with typical puppy energy, but reads cues well and is also happy to hang and rest.

Cats | Zeppelin has not been cat tested, so it's unknown how he would do with them.

Children | Zeppelin hasn't met many small children yet, but seems to like all people, so with proper introductions and training, could thrive in a home with kiddos!

Training | Zeppelin is house trained, dog door trained, knows sit and come, and is crate trained - what a DREAM!

Leash | Zeppelin is learning to walk on a leash, and doing well! He is still a puppy and it will take time.

Activity Level | Moderate
