ZUCCHINI's Story

? Meet Zucchini — Proof That Miracles Can Happen ? Zucchini came to us as a stray, but unlike most strays, this handsome big guy had a microchip! We contacted the registered owner and learned an incredible story: three years ago, while the owner was away at basic training, he left Zucchini in someone’s care. During that time, he was told that Zucchini had either been lost or had passed away. You can imagine the shock and joy when he found out Zucchini was not only alive, but healthy and safe with us! ?? Unfortunately, he is no longer living in the U.S., and as much as he wanted to, he wasn’t able to reclaim his beloved dog. So now, a brand-new chapter begins for Zucchini — and we hope it’s the happily-ever-after he and his former owner both deserve. This 8-year-old, 108-pound (yes, really!) Cane Corso/Mastiff mix is a stunning brindle boy with a heart to match his size. During his time here, he met a smaller spayed female who was a bit unsure at first — understandable given that he’s basically a tank — and she let him know with a little correction. Zucchini responded by backing off, regrouping, and returning with loose, wiggly body greetings. Soon enough, she was wiggling too! Our medical team has officially dubbed him a big GOOFY boy, suspecting that he may even be housebroken. ?? If you’re looking for a giant furry companion and want to give Zucchini the forever family he truly deserves, please come meet him at: 430 Bristol Drive, Statesville. We always recommend meet & greets with other dogs and children before adoption to help ensure the best match for everyone. And given his size, this is something you will want to do with Zucchini! ?? Remember the 3-3-3 Rule When Adopting: 3 Days: Your new pet may feel overwhelmed or unsure. 3 Weeks: They begin to settle in and learn your household routine. 3 Months: They feel secure, confident, and fully part of the family. ?? Zucchini – A313700 • 8 years old • Neutered male • 108 pounds (not a typo!) • Microchipped • UTD on vaccines/preventatives at ICAS • Adoption fee: 8??0?? Let’s find Zucchini the forever family he was always meant to have — for him, and in honor of his original dad who loved him so much. ?? #adoptfromicas #myicasrescue
