Zayden's Story

Name: Zayden aka “potato”<br/><br/>Male or female: Male<br/><br/>Approximate age: 2 years old<br/><br/>Breed: Best guess is mini aussie poodle<br/><br/>Weight: 16#<br/><br/>Any impairment: Visually impaired. Has peripheral vision in one eye. Hearing impaired<br/><br/>Potty trained? Working on it. He knows what to do when he goes outside but doesn't know how to ask.<br/><br/>Crate trained? No. He wants to be with his people<br/><br/>Good with other dogs? Yes. Relatively submissive<br/><br/>Good with cats? Chases but is easily redirected.<br/><br/>Commands known? None<br/><br/>Needs fenced in yard? Yes<br/><br/>Need another dog in the home? Not mandatory but would probably benefit.<br/><br/>Location: Kalamazoo, MI<br/><br/>Energy level: Low<br/><br/>Bio:<br/><br/>Mr Zayden is a chill dude. His favorite activities are snuggling and sleeping thus the nickname “potato.” He doesn't let his vision problems or his hearing problems slow him down. He loves to explore the back yard but needs a fence to know where his boundaries are. Zayden may have some neurologic issues as evidenced by some compulsive behaviors and he is in the process of being evaluated. He is redirectable and would do well with lick mats and kongs and other interactive toys to keep him busy when needed. Zayden does not have an aggressive bone in his body. He is a marshmallow and will take a little bit of time to warm up. He startles easily and does best when approached on his left side where he has a little bit of peripheral vision. Zayden is one of the easiest fosters his foster parents have ever had and deserves the best forever home. Could that be with you?<br/><br/>***PLEASE READ*** WE DO NOT RESPOND TO PETFINDER OR EMAIL INQUIRIES. Please fill out an application on our website if you are interested in adopting this dog. We will only set up a meeting with the dog once you have an approved adoption application. We actively manage our dogs on Petfinder.<br/><br/> <br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting this dog, please review our adoption policies and apply online at [www.speakfortheunspoken.com/adopt](http://www.speakfortheunspoken.com/adopt).

Speak for the Unspoken's Adoption Policy
Before completing our online application please read the following: Our adoption process involves multiple steps and it typically takes up to 2 weeks from the time we receive your application to the time your adoption is finalized. We reserve the right to deny any application without explanation. All of our dogs and/or puppies are in foster homes. We do not schedule “Meet and Greets” without an approved application. Our Adoption Fees start at $325 per dog, $75 per cat or kitten. We can adopt an animal ‘out of state’, but you must be willing to travel to where the pet is being fostered, and transport the animal yourself after the adoption. If you have other animals (dogs/cats) in your home, they must be up-to-date on vaccinations, heartworm testing and prevention (dogs), and spayed/neutered. We will verify this with your veterinarian. If your animals are not up to date, your application will be denied. Please make sure to fully complete your application; leaving questions blank or not including all requested information will delay your application. Once your online application is submitted, it can take our volunteers 5 to 7 business days to process it. If we have questions about your application, we will email you. Please make sure to add our email, adopt@speakfortheunspoken.com to your email so our messages do not end up in your spam folder! Once your application is approved by the processors, it is sent to the person fostering the dog you have applied for. They will make the decision on whether the animal that you applied for is the right fit for you and your home. They may also choose to initially contact you via email or phone. If you do not respond promptly to their email or phone call, they will move on to the next applicant. Your application will be saved on file for 1 year and will be used for all dogs you would be interested in that time-frame. No need to keep filling out applications! Adoption application approval means you are approved to adopt an animal from us, it does not mean you are necessarily approved for the animal you applied for. There may be specific circumstances in your home that do not make it a good fit for one animal, but it may be a fine fit for another.
