Zeus ended up at the shelter because his young owner was unable to care for him. Now, this sweet boy is heartbroken. @

Zeus cries nonstop in his kennel, confused about why he is there and longing for someone to love him again.

But outside his kennel, Zeus shows what a wonderful dog he truly is!

Only 18 months old — still a young, playful boy!

Very dog-friendly! He loves playing with other dogs.

Loves to play fetch! He’s always ready for some fun.

❤️ Affectionate and loving! Zeus craves human attention and just wants to feel loved.

Zeus doesn’t deserve to spend his days crying behind kennel bars. He deserves a home, a soft bed, toys, and a family who will never give up on him.

Adopting a dog in Bedford

Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.

Senior dogs are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate dog, ask the rescues about their older residents.

Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
