FOSTER PARENT COMMENTS: Zeus is a sweet puppy that gets along with everyone. He previously lived with two dogs, a cat and a duck â and was friends with all of them! He is currently in a foster home with two other dogs - he plays well with them and takes correction from them well when he gets too rambunctious.
Zeus is getting used to sleeping in his crate at night and will calm down and fall asleep within 5-10 minutes and sleep through the night. He is quickly catching on to the fact that nice puppies sit to put on a leash and to get treats or their meals.
Zeus wants to be near his people and to please them so training should go quickly.
EVERY DOG HAS A STORY: Zeus is the brother of two puppies BFPA rescued from a neglectful situation in January â Simon and Samuel (they have been adopted). The person who took Zeus can no longer care for him. When BFPA learned of this, we admitted him right away to our foster network.
