Introducing Zeus Cottonball Kukowski, he will be turning six years old on May 1st! Zeus is a happy go lucky dog, his favorite treats are beefy bones, favorite toys are the latex kind. He knows many tricks including how to add 1+1,2+2, 3+2, 1 0 he does so by placing his paws in my hands how many times the answer is! He is mostly blind, he was diagnosed with uveitis when is was about one and a half after developing cataracts possibly from some medication he was on ... but he doesn't let it slow him down! He loves to play and prance around!
He is not my first dog in my life, but my first dog I officially own (not parents' dog) if that makes sense. Usually I rescue dogs but at the time there were no dogs really in local shelters and I had just lost four dogs in a few years so I wanted a young dog. The first of the four dogs died of old age (18 years) and she came to our doorstep in the winter when she was about three, the next two were adopted when my aunt passed away, both had bad cancer. The final was a rescue, had him for like 6 years and also had cancer. Sorry about the sad story just wanted to give you a background.
So after all that, I found a place online, saw Zeus as a puppy and knew that's the dog that is for me. He is a mama's boy! He is always at my side! He is a one person dog though. He knows basic tricks of sit, lay down, roll over, knows how to wave, fist bump, high five and twirl. He loves playing soccer which turns into keep away and he loves helping me in the garden! He gets hand outs from the garden, that's why I love him very much.
