Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption

Hey there, it's Zuma! I'm a bundle of energy and fun, ready to take on the world with my curious and playful nature. As a young and enthusiastic pup, I'm always up for an adventure and will be your loyal companion through thick and thin. They call me a comedian in the making with my funny and affectionate personality – I'll keep you on your toes and leave you in fits of laughter. I'm a friendly gal and always eager to meet new people, so if you're looking for a playful and loving companion, I'm your girl!

Zuma is approximately two years old and currently weighs 47 lbs. She needs work on a leash and learning how to not jump on people when she greets them. She is young, eager and treat driven, so we believe training will be relatively easy. She gets along well with other dogs, so a furry companion in the home would be great. Because of her size and energy level, she would not be suitable for an apartment. A home with a fenced backyard is a requirement. Zuma can jump a chain link fence, so any potential adopter would need a privacy fence 6-ft. Or higher.

The fee to adopt Zuma is $200; this includes spay, vaccines, testing for heartworms, de-worming and a microchip.

Please note: Zuma is currently located at our rescue facility in Sherman, TX. Adoptions are BY-APPOINTMENT ONLY. If you are interested in meeting Zuma, please visit our website: www.arfhouse.org and fill out an adoption application. Once we receive your application, our adoption coordinator will contact you with any questions she may have, or to set up a time for you to meet Zuma.

If you do not hear back from us within 48 hours, please email Jenna Glover at Jenna.arfhouse@gmail.com
