Hello, beautiful humans! My name is Ziva and I am originally from Memphis, Tennessee, where I was found as a stray by a nice human from the Memphis Animal Shelter. I was rescued by my new dad in Iowa and we took a long trip from Memphis to get there but I discovered on the way that I love car rides! I am very well behaved while riding. I do not drool or slobber and I take care of business after we stop and I am let out of the car. I am very neat! Unfortunately, after a few months together, my new dad started having serious health issues and could no longer take care of me, so my grandparents took me on another really fun car ride to Wisconsin, where we met this cool young woman who offered to take care of me until a new home is found.
Now I am a part of a family of 5 other dogs and we all get along pretty well, although I think I would prefer to be an only dog or maybe one other dog (a slow introduction would be good). But, no cats, no small critters, no birds, please!! I love humans, especially women, and I get along great with kids from young to teens. I really enjoy long walks with my new friends, and have learned to sit, stay, heel. I know I still have lots to learn, and you'll have to be patient with me, but I am smart and I LOVE treats (but no human food, please). I've also had some cool adventures going with my new friend to watch her barrel race, where I stayed where she told me to, and then we went to the farm to the feed her horses. Boy, are they huge, but we got along okay.
I am house-trained and crate-trained and love my soft bed (or yours, if you'll let me). If you leave the house without me, just make sure all food items are put away because I can jump to the counter or stove to eat your leftovers, even though they're not good for me, and I will empty wastebaskets looking for goodies. But, other than that, I am a loving, affectionate, happy girl and I just want someone to share that with, someone who will love me back no matter what. Unconditional love ... that's what I give and that's what I need.
I am also high energy, so the long walks are absolutely necessary so I can get the fidgets out (or a back yard with a nice high fence would be great, too. I'm a good jumper!). Just don't let me see any cats or squirrels! They are not my friends. But, as my grandma would say, I am a "love bug." I can't wait to meet you and love you so so much, slobbery kisses and all and just watch my tail wag! Then you'll know how very happy and excited I am to be home with you!!
