Senior Dog, Zeus, Desperately Seeking Someone To Love Him

NORTH FORK, NY — Zeus, a sweet senior dog, is at a North Fork shelter, waiting patiently for a forever family to love him.

Zeus, 10, was adopted from The League when he was just a puppy, said Gabrielle Stroup, director of operations at the rescue, which has locations in Peconic and in Aquebogue.

"He was picked up as a stray a few weeks ago and when we contacted the owners, they said they did not want him anymore," she said.

Zeus, she added, is a pit bull mix. "He loves people — and is very sad at the shelter."

Zeus is also very affectionate and has tested well with cats, she said.

"He just wants to be around people," Stroup said.

Zeus is located at the Aquebogue shelter, located at 324 Church Lane. If you are interested in adopting Zeus, call 631-765-1811, Ext. 2.
