Zack

Podenco · Male · Young · 2 years

Zack & Cody were found together, without microchip, in Los Monteros area, that has recently become a very common dumping ground for Podencos, we have already many Podencos from that area. We are guessing that it is hunters dropping their "not useful tools" in the area. At least they arrive to us alive, so we are happy for that. Cody is the more light brown of the two friends, Zack is dark brown. In the beginning, both of them were cautious about people, not scared and even not shy, but just you could see that humans did not mean much positive to them, but at the same time, they very quickly and very well related to other dogs, and they have been living together with different other dogs (mostly females) ever since. Over the months, they have both started to relate much more to humans, and by now they love to go for walks and engage with humans, whether it's for cuddles, snacks or exercises. Zack is an eye-catching Podenco-type of a dog, he has chocolate brown fur and a memorable face. He walks well on the leash, just that in situations that are exciting or very interesting for him, he pulls a bit on the leash, so some leash training would be great. Zack and Cody do not need to live together, and Zack potentially could even be an only dog, but he would be his happiest self if he could live in a home with at least one more other dog. Zack has been out for the day with one of our volunteers, and he shows that he travels well in the car, and is even patient when he is asked to wait for the human in a certain space. During the walks, he says hi both to female and male dogs politely. He most likely has not been living in a normal home before, and therefore still needs to be house-trained, but they are very intelligent animals and learn it quickly, where they should do their business and where not. Zack like all Podencos would enjoy to live near the nature, and home with a secure garden would be ideal, as well as previous experience with Podencos or similar breeds. At the same time, Zack is not a nervous, panicky dog, and we could potentially also see him living in a suburban or town environment. His shoulder height is approximately 49cm.
