Zeke

Fill out an adoption form

Meet Zeke, a loving, extremely smart, loyal companion who lives for neck scratches, treats and car rides! He is a kind & playful boy who will do anything for baby carrots, his favorite treat. He is known to “smile” big when he sees his favorite people, followed by a booty shake to show his excitement.  He loves meeting new people, but prefers to give them a few sniffs before going in for full pets.

Zeke was adopted as a puppy from a rescue in Memphis by a retired couple and their adult son with special needs, who Zeke was extra gentle with! He instantly became a beloved part of the family.
After the unexpected passing of his owner and the addition of a newborn into the home, Zeke has had a tough time adjusting to all the changes. He adores the older grandchildren but was overwhelmed by the new infant.
Therefore, Zeke would thrive best in a home with any adult or a family with older children.

Zeke has not lived with another dog, but did fine in doggy daycare and being boarded.

Zeke is fully crate trained, house trained and has good manners. He does well with commands sit, lay down, “go to his bed (crate)”. Zeke loves food and has been known to steal a treat off the counter a time or two, but now he puts himself in his crate when you start to cook so he can keep his good boy status! He is also crated when left alone in the house and does just fine!!

He is a happy, loving boy who is really low maintenance as he doesn’t require a ton of exercise. Short walks, snuggles, baby carrots and love is all this boy wants and needs. In return you will get a true BFF.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION - 

Paws New England is a foster-based rescue - our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south and New England.  

Adoption donations cover pre-adoption vet costs (including vaccinations, spay/neuter when age appropriate, and heartworm testing/treatment when necessary), a microchip, and transportation to New England if necessary.

Donations for our young, healthy puppies and dogs support their fellow canines of advanced age or suffering from injuries and abuse whose donations are reduced but whose veterinary costs are typically much higher. We appreciate your understanding that your newly adopted dog will help others in need.
