Zingo (Zero) - Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Denver, Colorado

This sweet boy recently arrived from Clovis, NM. He is a bit shy when first meeting adults, but LOVES kids. He is potty-trained and crate-trained and sleeps soundly through the night.

He makes an excellent office mate and happily naps wherever he finds a cozy spot, preferably a chair or couch or his crate. He loves belly rubs and to be snuggled up near his people, but he is not a lap dog. He is still learning to trust the big scary world and would do well in a home with an easy-going, confident dog. New sights and sounds may take him a few days to get used to.

He will need some basic training, but he is very responsive to correction. He is also VERY treat-motivated and learned 'sit' and 'paw' in 2 days!

His calm, sweet demeanor and smaller size will make him the perfect addition for any family.

The shepherd dog breed encompasses a versatile group known for their intelligence, loyalty, and strong work ethic.
