About Zeus - Dingo Mix
Looking for a cheeky, playful snuggle partner?
Then this cheeky chap is the pup for you. Zeus and his sister were rescued as orphan pups from the wild in Northern NSW and handed into a vet clinic near Byron. Since dingoes cannot legally be released he looking for a committed family with space for
Zeus is out smallest pup at the shelter but this doesn’t slow him down. You can usually find him chasing and rolling around with the bigger puppies. Zeus is the most inquisitive puppy, he loves to explore and go on bushwalks and other adventures.
He is learning to walk on a leash but will need more practice as he is just a pup after all. But he will make the most wonderful walking companion, who will happily go exploring with you.
Zeus really loves other dogs so would make a great friend for your dog or dingo. His new home MUST have another dog or dingo for company. No dogs under 10kg please. Zeus will be 18-22kg when fully grown.
Zeus is learning toilet training and currently using puppy pads. He is also learning to go in the car for short trips, but will need more practice with his new family. He is very intelligent, food motivated and eager to learn. Being a dingo however he is not suitable to let off leash except in a securely fenced area and he is unlikely to ever learn reliable recall off the leash.
Zeus is not suitable to live with cats, pocket pets, birds or live stock. He needs a large yard and cannot live in an apartment.
So if you are looking to add a bit of sparkle and joy in your life then this is the pup for you. If your family are looking for a snuggly, playful puppy that will provide you with plenty of laughter then look no further, and email us for an adoption application now.
Fencing requirements:
Zeus is a dingo mix, however since he is predominantly dingo we recommend at least a 1.8m secure fence and dig proofing at the base of the fence may be required.
