ZARAH - GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog / Mixed. Introducing Zarah, the only girl from her trio of lively littermates! At just 10 weeks old and weighing a petite 8 lbs, this tiny German Shepherd mix is bursting with personality. Despite her small size, Zarah is smart, agile, and full of courage. After saying goodbye to some pesky worms that held her back, she's on track to thrive and grow into the happy, healthy pup she's meant to be. Zarah meant to participate at our adoption event at Pet Food Express Loehman's Plaza Sacramento on Sunday, instead she spent Saturday night at the VCA ER for us to sort out what's likely gastroenteritis. She's now on a bland diet and starting to perk up thanks to her foster families cooking and meds. If you're able, we'd be so grateful for any donation towards our unexpected $1600 vet bill. Our budget for medical expenses has been stretched thin with Zarah, Heimdall's grade 2 heart murmur echocardiogram expenses from August and Lunaa's echocardiogram for her grade 5 heart murmur resulting in a SAS diagnosis from this spring and Lunaa is due for her one year cardiogram on Oct. 9th. We expect Zarah to join her littermates at our next event Bark in the Park SJ on 9/27 from 10 am to 5 pm. Please join us to give some snuggles to Zarah and learn more about our efforts to help shepherds at risk. This and other upcoming ShepHeroes events are available here. Zarah is currently living in a loving foster home with three seasoned Shepherd mixes who are teaching her the ins and outs of doggy etiquette. Her foster family is showering her with affection and guidance as they work together on sleep schedules and potty training. One thing is for sure: Zarah is 100% sassy and irresistibly adorable! She loves toys, taking shortcuts off the steps and hanging out in the yard too. This little gem loves snuggles and prefers to be close to her people and canine companions. If you're looking for a sweet, spirited puppy to be your new best friend, Zarah might just be the perfect match for you! Prepare for a lifetime of love and fun with this brave little girl by your side. Have you checked out our YouTube channel?
