Hey there, I’m Zeke, a handsome, mild-mannered pup with a soft heart and an even softer spot for cozy dog beds and belly rubs. I’m the kind of guy who never leaves you wondering if you’ve been missed. I’ll be right there to greet you with a wag, some kisses, or a well-placed butt lean.

I’m fully crate trained and house trained, and I’ve got a solid set of manners, too. I know commands like sit, stay, and down, and I always wait for a “break” before heading out the door, I never jump up on people unless I’m invited, and I’m known for my gentle nature. Once I love you, I’m all in.

I get along well with dogs and cats, and while I haven’t met any kids yet, I’d probably do well with respectful introductions. I’m not super food or toy motivated, but I do have a soft spot for tennis balls and Greenies, those are my jam! I can be a bit anxious in new environments and sometimes pull on the leash when I’m feeling unsure, but when I’m calm, my leash manners are pretty solid. I’m still working on building my confidence, especially around new people (men in particular), so I’ll need someone patient who let's me warm up at my own pace. Having a confident dog siblings will do wonders for me so I'd like my new home to slready have a dog.

Oh, and I’ve got this adorably goofy smile. When I pant, my top lip never quite covers my right canine, so I’ve got a permanent quirky grin going on. Foster mom says it’s one of her favourite things about me! I do have some allergies but they seems to be fairly easy to manage! I am also on a diet cause I love treats a little too much, do you think you could keep helping me get my summer body in check?

If you’re looking for a calm, loving companion who’s down for outdoor adventures and couch snuggles alike, I might be your guy. Apply to meet me today, I can’t wait to share my goofy smile and big heart with you!
