I am sometimes nervous with men I don't know. But if my new male friends can take it slow, use gentle voices, and let me move at my own pace, we'll be able to get along.

I love laps! It doesn't matter how big or small I am (or the lap is)... if there's a lap, I'm ready to cuddle.

ZEUS #176714 neutered male, 7 yrs 1 mths 59 lbs

Breed: German Shepherd Dog $50

*Foster HOme 


This pet is in foster, you won't find them at the shelter

I've been in the shelter longer than most and my adoption fee has been paid by someone who loves me.

My foster knows me better than anyone! Here's what they had to say about me during my time with them:

He's super sweet and loves to be around and cuddle with his people. Zeus likes to play catch and get belly rubs. He's super polite, a gentle treat taker, and loves to go for walks.

I can be nervous around new people. It just takes me a little while to get comfortable. But once I get to know you, I'm very loving.

I'm an active dog! I would love to go home with a family who can help me burn off energy with exercise, playtime, and outdoor adventures.

I'd like a home where my family is home often. I'm just really social and love spending time with people, I prefer to not be left alone for long periods.

I need a single-family home. Attached homes and apartments aren't the right fit for me. My friends at the shelter can tell you more about my needs.

I'm available for Trial Adoption! If you're interested in taking me home for 2 weeks before making a final decision, please speak to an adoption counselor.

I'm currently in foster and ready for my new home! If you're interested in meeting me, please email caninefoster@southwesthumane.org

Hi, I'm Nikita! I believe life is best traveled side by side with my favorite people. I'm the kind of girl who's happy curled up by your feet, keeping you company with the occasional husky conversation. I have a collection of emotional support dolls that I like to carry around when I'm nervous. I'm social, sweet, and always go for adventure, whether that's exploring a new trail or following you from the couch to the kitchen. More than anything, I'm looking for a person to be my forever travel companion for life is only as sweet as the company we keep.

I have some handling sensitivity. That means I have some preferences about how and where I get petted. My human friends at the shelter can tell you more!

I'm easy going. Wanna go for a walk? Okay. Hang out in the yard? No problem. Just relax on the couch? I can do that. I'm pretty happy to go at your pace and I don't really need much more than most dogs do. If you're looking for a steady companion, I'm all yours.

What my friends at OHS say about me:

  • I have been working with the Behavior and Training team here at OHS for consistency and am looking for a special home. It will take time and patience to get to know me. You'll need to meet with me multiple times before taking me home.
  • To learn more about my specific needs, please read my What to Expect handout.
  • The staff here say I'm being dramatic, but it feels like I'll die when I'm not getting attention!
  • Looking to try cool dog activities or sports? I am a great partner for that!
  • I'm very active and will need positive outlets for my energy.
  • I love to be the center of attention. All eyes and pets on me, please!
  • I love to learn! You can use my favorite toys or treats as positive reinforcement and to teach me new things.
  • Click here to sign-up for our Start over Rover class! We will help you set you on the right path to have the best life possible with your new furry friend through training, games, and exercises!
  • High Energy: I can become easily frustrated if my energy and exercise needs are not met. I will need positive outlets and a calm environment to help me flourish.
  • In my last home, I did great in the crate!


the type of home I'm looking for:

  • I would flourish in a calm environment and a low-traffic home.
  • My energy and size can be a lot for little kids, but I would do great with older, dog-savvy children.
  • I am not for the first time dog owner. Someone very familiar with canine body language is a must for me.
  • I need a home without cats or other small animals.
  • I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted.
  • It could be with you! Click here to learn about the adoption process.
