**Please read Journey Zoom's entire profile, which includes a link to the adoption application at the end. Thank you!**

Meet Journey Zoom, an approx. 4-month-old Lab/ Hound mix, weighing around 18 pounds (as of 2/20/26). She was found wandering the streets of Tennessee with the rest of her ZOOM litter, but heard about the wonderful adopters in New England. Her motto is “don’t stop believing!” and she hopes you’ll give her a shot!

This girl is an on-the-go pup who’s never worried about being held! In fact, she wants to be in the middle of all the action. Your neighbors are having an argument? She lives for the drama. The ice cream truck is down the street? You better get your cash ready! This girl always wants to know what’s going on which is why she's perfect for active families who like to be in everyone’s business. Instead of awkwardly sneaking around, you can use Journey as an excuse to eavesdrop and get the scoop! It’s a win-win!

Journey hopes to find the perfect family who’ll give her all the attention she deserves. Seriously. If no one’s paying attention to her, she’ll let you know by singing all of Journey’s discography. Since she was always with her siblings, vocalizing is just her way of not getting lost in the mix, so if you happen to love karaoke, she hopes you’ll join in singing with her! Journey is going to be a great dog for kids or anyone who likes to be out and about.

She still needs puppy training (though she is good with crates and dog doors) but with a consistent routine, she should do well and even start teaching classes! Sadly, no friends and family discount.

Journey Zoom can’t wait to hang out with her new family! Will it be yours?

All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

PLEASE READ: If a dog is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works.

Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
