Rescue Story:
My Mama came to Zoe's when she was pregnant. We were lucky to be born in warm, dry, safe place. I am now grown up and ready to find my forever home!
Date of Birth: June 2, 2022
Energy Level: High - I am full of fun puppy energy!
Size (adult): XLarge
Adoption Fee: By donation
Good with Dogs? Yes
I am still learning puppy manners when greeting other dogs but with proper introductions I get along great with little and big dogs
Good with Cats? Yes
With continued training and supervision I should do okay. I don't bother the cat unless she runs.
Good with Kids? Yes
With respectful playing, I get along great with kids, but older kids would be best, as I am a large bouncy puppy.
Critter Twitter:
Hey there! I am Olympus! I have been with Zoe’s for a year now, as I just had my first birthday. I am a sweet boy, that loves to be in the middle of everything. I love long walks, it is the best part of my day! I am really great off leash with a fantastic recall. My emergency recall word is boomerang, how cool is that! I will also play fetch all day long if I could, so I would do best in an active household. Mental enrichment is also a good way to tire me out. I also will need time to cuddle on the couch and read a good book with my human. I'm smart and learning new cues every single day. I already know how to sit, stay, free and leave it, but would love to learn more. I would love to find my forever family, maybe that is you! Please put in an application for me, I can hardly wait to meet you!
About my Behaviour:
I am house trained. I love my crate and sleep in it all night even when the door is open. I am best with older kids as I am a 120 lbs dog who thinks they are still a small puppy. As well, I am still working on 4 paws on the floor.
As a condition of adoption, we must register in a force free training class for. We'll learn so much and bond and I can have some socializing time with other dogs in a safe environment, which is really critical for young pups!

How’s my Health?
I am neutered, up to date on my vaccinations, dewormed and microchipped.
I was diagnosed with a condition called megaesophagus when I was 5 weeks old. This means I have trouble with my throat muscles pushing food and water down and keeping it down. I am doing really good now, I am not currently on medications and no longer use my Bailey chair. My foster makes sure I don’t drink water for 15 minutes after I eat as I will chug it then I may regurgitate it and my food up.
