Zoey, 4 years old, is more than just a houn’ dog—she’s also a Belgian Malinois! Zoey’s affectionate and seeks attention from humans, and although she’s not much of a frolicker, she does like to hang out with dogs in the play yard and casually mingle, discussing what they’ve smelled in the grass and bushes. She’s apparently had some training—she knows several commands and is housebroken. Zoey once had a home, but it doesn’t seem like she had attention from them. She’s been at the shelter a couple of times as a stray in the last few years, and her owner always came for her. This last time, though, they never responded to shelter requests to come for her, and now, Zoey needs a forever home where her family will give her the attention she so craves. Like many dogs with Belgian Malinois in their DNA, Zoey cannot handle confinement in a kennel—can you give her the home she deserves? The shelter’s over capacity with dogs, so speed the process to adopt or foster Zoey or any of our other pets by emailing PetAdopt@longbeach.gov or petfoster@longbeach.gov.
