Zaida

Meet Zaida!<br/><br/>If you've been searching for a sweet, silly, treat-powered sidekick, Zaida's your girl. This gorgeous border collie mix was rescued after being found on the side of the road, and she's gone from rags to zoomies in no time. Now she's living her best foster life and is officially ready to find her forever family!<br/><br/>Zaida is basically the definition of main character energy. She loves being the center of attention, thrives on praise (and snacks, obviously), and has perfected the art of dramatic herding-dog stares. She's not here for apartment life, this girl needs a yard to live out her zoomie dreams. Think of her as your personal Peloton instructor, but fuzzier and way cuter.<br/><br/>She's also a one-of-a-kind pup with her own quirks. Zaida has a condition called idiopathic head tremor syndrome (IHTS)-translation: sometimes her head and body do little wiggles of their own. It's benign and just part of her unique vibe. Along with that, she's on long-term meds to help with anxiety and OCD, which help her stay her sweet, snuggly, happy self.<br/><br/>Zaida would do best with experienced adopters who understand herding breeds and are ready to keep her brain and body busy. She prefers to be the solo diva in the house but does fine with other dogs too. No tiny humans under 8, please, she's still working on her social graces.<br/><br/>** This pet is a Foster-to-Adopt candidate!<br/><br/>That means you can foster them for a short trial period to make sure they're the perfect match for your home before finalizing the adoption. If you're interested, please complete both a foster application and an adoption application so we can get the process started. **<br/><br/>Zaida is currently in a loving foster home. A meet and greet can be scheduled once an online adoption application has been submitted and approved by AFRP staff. Visit www.animalfriendsrescue.org to fill one out today!
