Zealand is a 30 lb lovebug! This perfect sized mama is around 2 years old and we think she is a Kelpie and Shepherd mix. She has spent the last several weeks caring for her 5 puppies but is finished with motherhood and ready for a home of her own. Zealand makes new friends easily, human and dog alike! Belly rubs and ear scratches are her two favorite pastimes. She sleeps in a pen separate from her puppies and is housetrained in her current foster home.

Zealand has medium energy and enjoys having two walks a day and a backyard to run around in. She loves to chase after all sorts of critters in the yard so may not be the best fit for a home with cats. Zealand has good leash manners, is treat motivated and enjoys chew toys or bones. She does get a little overenthusiastic at times - she has the cutest happy dance! - and is working on not jumping up for attention. She has a condition called Valley Fever that affects her joints and is managed with daily medication. She occasionally walks with a slight limp but it definitely doesn't slow her up much! If you think you are ready to add to your family by adopting Zealand, then fill out an adoption application on our website today! We recommend completing the application process and connecting with a adoption coach before looking for a dog or puppy you'd like to adopt. If you're already approved to adopt or if you've adopted from Labs and More before, connect with your adoption coach for the next steps.

Your interest in adopting a rescued dog or puppy from Labs and More Rescue is appreciated! Please find our adoption information at www.labsandmore.org. Your adoption donation provides funding for Labs and More, a nonprofit organization which is supported solely by Volunteers and funded by donations. Good news is your adoption donation can be considered tax deductible. So much care is provided to your new dog prior to the adoption, including: spay and neuter, microchip, veterinarian visit(s), vaccinations, and other medical care as needed. Many of the dogs we rescue require extensive surgeries and care prior to adoption. Please understand we are unable to predict future behavior or medical needs of your adopted dog. We provide no guarantees regarding behavior, breed, or age of the dogs. Thank you for rescuing.
