Zeus and Zoey recently went into a foster home and have adapted quickly to their new surroundings.  They are foster's constant shadows following her everywhere she goes. Zeus tends to be a little weary of strangers from a distance but once given the opportunity to meet them he warms up quickly.  Zoey seems to be a bit more confident then Zeus and he looks to her often when he feels unsure of himself.  Both Zeus and Zoey have the protective nature innate in GSD and are extremely affectionate and loyal with those they trust.  They would like to be lap dogs but unfortunately they are just a  little too big for that.  

Zeus and Zoey love to play fetch but only Zoey will drop the ball for you so you can continue playing, Zeus on the other hand runs around with the ball in his mouth playing keep away from Zoey.  Both enjoy chasing each other, but watch out that they may run into you and knock you over when they are going at full speed. For this reason, it maybe better for them to be in a home with older kids. Zoey is a fan of all toys that squeak and Zeus prefers the non squeaky toys so that works out well when it come to sharing toys.  Both dogs are crate trained and crated when their foster is not home and have had no issues or accidents in the home - they are both wonderful and respectful house guests. 

Zeus and Zoey are in need of training, and need more work on leash manners and learning not to jump on people or furniture. Training will also help to build their confidence and stimulate them mentally and physically.  Zoey rides very nicely in the car and Zeus is a bit anxious and would prefer to be shotgun so his foster mom is working on that.  One time when Zeus was feeling particularly anxious in the car, Zoey hopped over the seat to lick his face and comfort him.  Zoey is the top dog and Zeus respects that. Zeus and Zoey really get along very nicely and just like any other dogs, occasionally have a spat but get over it quickly.  We are trying very hard to keep them together but may consider separating them if there is not interest in both dogs.  Please ask to meet Zeus and Zoey.

Aruba is a few days into her foster home and her foster family reports she is just the sweetest dog! She just wants affection and to be talked to. Aruba has excellent house manners and is starting to get the hang of pottying outside. Aruba is learning sit and down commands.  She's still very unsure of herself, humans and her surroundings and is learning confidence, but currently prefers smaller crowds of people around her.  If she sounds like a perfect fit for you, ask to meet her!
