In the shelter’s words

Zeus was born around August 20, 2018 (this is what we were told, but we feel he could be a couple years older) and is at a healthy weight of about 90 pounds. Zeus is with is because his human passed away. Zeus is a very happy GSD and adores humans big and small but we are going to say no small kids because he doesn't know how big he is. Zeus is wonderful with other dogs but he can not live with cats as they are just too much fun to chase. Zeus rides beautifully in the car and walks ok on a leash. He also hangs with you nicely off leash with an occasional reminder of calling him back. Zeus is an incredible GSD, but please remember these XL breeds need lots of vet care at the end of their lives. You must be prepared financially and emotionally to give this guy everything he deserves, he's so worth it and we love him already. The Adoption Fee for this dog is $350.00 Adoptions fees vary based on adoptability. In general our fees include spay/neuter, all age appropriate vaccines, Home Again micro-chipping & registration, worming & flea control - a "complete" pet. We accept CASH or Visa/Mastercard ONLY. Joyful Rescues has no funding except for our adoption fees and miscellaneous donations. Pet care and vet bills are expensive - you must be ready to take on this financial (as well as emotional) responsibility. YOU MUST BE AT LEAST 25 YEARS OF AGE TO ADOPT A DOG FROM JOYFUL RESCUES We keep our pet list as up-to-date as possible. As soon as a pet is adopted, it is removed from the list. If a pet is still showing, it is still available for adoption. Can't Adopt Me? SPONSOR ME Look for the Link "Special Instructions to Seller" if you want to note a particular pet
