Meet Zeus 2025

Zeus is a sweet, one-year-old, 65 pound pup looking for his perfect forever home. He can be a little shy and nervous when first meeting new people, but with a little patience (and maybe a treat or two!), he will start to show his loving, playful side. Zeus loves to chase a ball—although he's still working on the whole "bring it back" part! He enjoys going on walks and hikes, and he rides calmly in the car. In his foster home, he has free reign with two male dogs and gets along beautifully with them. Because of this, Zeus will need a companion dog in his new home to help him continue building confidence. He’s housebroken, has a medium energy level, and displays some prey drive. While he might chase outdoor cats, a dog-savvy indoor cat could be okay with proper introductions. Zeus is easily corrected and eager to please, making him a wonderful candidate for continued training. A quiet home with an at least five foot fence will be the best fit for Zeus. He will need a patient family willing to give him the time and encouragement he needs to feel truly safe and secure. Once he realizes he’s home for good, Zeus blossoms into a warm, affectionate boy who loves belly rubs, cuddles, and snoozing in his dog bed. He’ll happily be your best friend—especially if you're willing to throw the ball for him! Zeus would probably do okay with calm, older, considerate kids but because of his shy nature, smaller kids might be too much. If you’re ready to open your heart and home to a loyal, loving companion, Zeus is ready to meet you. If you're interested in adding Zeus to your family, please contact your adoption coordinator. If you do not yet have an adoption coordinator, please complete an adoption application at www.freedomgermanshepherdrescue.org. Zeus is being fostered outside of Charlotte, NC

Adoption Process
All applicants must pass a vet check, phone interview and home visit in order to adopt. Once an applicant passes, they must sign an adoption contract where they agree to alter the dog by 6 months of age - if they are adopting a puppy, guarantee that the dog will receive proper vet care, food, water and exercise, and will return the dog to the rescue if they can no longer keep the dog for any reason. All dogs are microchipped prior to adoption, with Freedom GSR always remaining on the chip. The adoption fee is $250, adopters receive a 2 week trial period with the dog and if the adopter is found to be in violation of the contract, Freedom GSR will reclaim the dog. All dogs will not be adopted out until they are up to date on shots, free of heartworms and intestinal parasites and altered, if six months of age or older. If a puppy is adopted, the adoption contract stipulates that the puppy must be altered by the time s/he turns 6 months old.
