Zorro is a 2-3 year old lab/cattle dog mix! He is 40lbs full of affection. He is a sweetheart who only wants love and affection. Zorro was a loved pet, he lived in a home with his owner. Sadly his owner had passed away and his owners family did not want the responsibility of caring for Zorro. Unfortunately he was brought to the pound. (Luckily for him he ended up in a low kill shelter) - Zorro was taken to the shelter on January 14th 2021. Another rescue were going to take him, sadly that rescue decided not to claim him and pull him in to rescue to save his life. The volunteers at the shelter worked very hard to get Zorro attention, hoping he would find an adopter or another rescue would save him. The volunteers knew what a sweet boy he was, and he deserves a chance at a happy life. The months rolled by and no one came for sweet Zorro. By June 2021 the shelter was at a loss of what to do, they could no longer hold on to Zorro, sitting in a small kennel without outside access for 6 months is not healthy for a pup.  The volunteers  tried finding someone to adopt him, or rescues to pull him out of the shelter, they even asked other shelters if they had room for him. NO ONE was coming for Zorro. Paws Rescue League knew Zorro was in the shelter, and we saw no one was going to adopt him, he was running out of time. The shelter was going to euthanize him for space if he didnt have someone to take him by mid June. Paws Rescue League couldnt let that happen. We arranged for Zorro to transport to New England, he didnt have a foster up here, again.. NO ONE was coming for Zorro. We knew we had to get him out of TN before he was put to sleep, and get him up to New England, even if we didnt have a foster home for him. Currently Zorro is in boarding until we can secure a loving foster home, or a loving furever home.  Zorro is a sweet boy, he loves people of all ages, and loves to give kisses and hugs. Zorro came from a home where he was the only pet, and that is what he is used to. The shelter noted that he showed some stress when being in a kennel next to a male dog. When cat tested he wanted to chase the cat. So no other dogs, and no cats for this guy.  show less
