Description
Sweet Zendaya was picked up as a stray in the south. The shelter director couldn't believe that this little girl wasn't claimed as she is simply a love. Unfortunately, due to extensive overcrowding, once Zendaya's stray hold was up, she needed a rescue pull. MAGSR couldn't help but fall in love with this little girl. We were so very excited to welcome her to the MAGSR family.
Zendaya is a little honey. Her sunshiney personality brings light and joy to everyone around her. A big fan of attention and belly rubs, Zendaya happily flops over for as much love as she can possibly get. Although we do not know anything about Zendaya's past, it is highly evident that she was socialized with people and dogs. She plays very well with others. Although Zendaya is a doll, please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family. Puppies are full of puppy energy and antics. They get into things, whine, and will chew on inappropriate items. With time, patience, and training, Zendaya will develop into the good canine citizen we know she is destined to become. If this little girl sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet her today!

Sweet Zendaya apparently contracted an upper respiratory infection somewhere in her travels and it, unfortunately, developed into pneumonia. She had a hacking cough, purulent nasal discharge, sneezing, difficulty breathing and lethargy (for a puppy). Despite all of this, she continued to act much like a happy puppy but a low energy one. Her foster took her to the vet. She was started on antibiotics and the vet recommended x-rays. MAGSR immediately agreed to the x-rays and thank goodness we did. The x-rays clearly demonstrated just how sick this little one was. She was taken to the emergency clinic and started on intravenous antibiotics and fluids. The emergency staff were smitten with her exuberant personality. Fortunately, she only needed a one night stay and was sent home after 24 hours with more antibiotics. She'll need follow-up x-rays in two weeks. Her foster reports that her energy level has increased but to what level? We're really not sure but those IV antibiotics really seem to have made a difference.
Zendaya is a young girl and is going to have lots of energy to burn. She has no training and has learned to sit but when her food bowl is involved it's more of a kangaroo jump/sit. She is treat motivated. She doesn't have any leash manners and leashing has been a little bit of a challenge as any compression on her trachea produced coughing. This sweet girl will need lots of structure and training. She is smart, sweet and beautiful and has so much to learn. She gets along fine with the resident dogs and is conflict avoidant. She is looking for a forever home to provide a lifetime of love and adventures. Could this be you?
