View more

rcise. She loves cuddling on the couch or is perfectly content relaxing in her crate. The terrier in her has some barking tendencies but she seems to adjust to city noises. She will sometimes bark at people on bikes as they probably look funny to her. She does seem toy & food possessive but there is room for growth beyond this behavior. We think she is partial to female humans but will warm up to males when she gets to walk up and meet them. She is crate trained and loves a squeaky ball over rope. Overall she is a loving and happy dog that wants a forever home that is open to getting to know Zoey and her quirks. Zoey would do best in an adult-only home with owners who can read her behavior signals. She has been friendly with meeting other dogs unless they challenge her energy level and Zoey can hold her own in friendly wrestling match. Name: Zoey Location: Northeast Adoption Center (All our dogs meets are by appointment only - please call ahead.) Breed: Terrier mix (Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of the dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label) Age: 6-10 years old Weight: 13 pounds Reason for surrender to shelter: Zoey's owner surrendered her because she could not train her properly.
