Zeus's Story

Zeus is a bright, fun-loving boy with a heart as big as his smile. He's full of life, loves to play with other dogs, and has that perfect mix of goofiness and charm that make him an excellent companion.<br/><br/>Before arriving at the shelter, Zeus had never been on a leash- but he's come so far! He's still gaining confidence and sometimes does a playful roll when he's unsure, so he'll need a home that can continue safely helping him learn that walks are a good thing. He's already showing how smart he is- when you tell him to "sit," he'll hold it so patiently until you give the all-clear to move again!<br/><br/>At just under 2 years old, Zeus is ready to keep learning, keep loving, and bring endless joy to a home that will appreciate his silly spirit. A home with adults only would the best fit for this big-hearted goofball.

Smyth Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
We are open to the public 11 AM to 6 PM on Fridays & Saturdays. We have several dogs, cats, & kittens housed at our facility as well as in foster. Because some of the animals are in foster homes & it takes a bit of logistical work to set up meet & greets, we do require an approved application before we’ll set up a meeting. Be sure to let us know ahead of time who you're interested in meeting so we can let you know if they are on site or in foster. The link to apply is bit.ly/SAR_adopt Our adoption fee for cats/kittens is $100 for a single or $150 for a pair. We strongly encourage the adoption of kittens in pairs as research shows they do much better, are less destructive, & are happier when they have another kitten friend. Our fee covers spay/neuter, rabies vaccination, FVRCP vaccination, combo test for the two major feline diseases, deworming, & flea/tick preventative medication. We do require cats adopted from us remain INDOOR only & that they NEVER be declawed. Our adoption fee for adult dogs is $125 and for puppies is $150. Our fee covers spay/neuter, rabies vaccination (if old enough), DHPPL vaccination, 4DX test for heartworm & three major tick-borne diseases, deworming, & flea/tick preventative medication. We require that all dogs adopted from us live indoors — they cannot be chained or live in an outdoor kennel full time. For all adoptions, we require that all existing pets in the home be spayed/neutered & up-to-date on vaccinations — we do follow up with the applicant's veterinarian to ensure these requirements are met.
