More: Zeus had a difficult start in life. The vet said he was separated from his mother too early. He was adopted by a college student who decided he was too hard for her to care for. He was sick with worms and other digestive issues. My daughter in college called and asked if she could adopt the puppy from this girl. We said no, but she did anyway. Soon, it was apparent to her that she needed help. Hence, she brought Zeus home to us. After many vet visits and special diet, Zeus has grown into a beautiful dog full of personality! He is high maintenance, but worth all the effort! He gives great hugs!
