Zappa is one big, handsome sweetheart — a black-coated charmer with a calm, easygoing nature. He’s affectionate, loves being around people, and has no problem sharing his space with the rescue cats. Zappa’s looking for that special human to call his own, someone who’ll enjoy his company whether it’s a lazy afternoon on the couch or a quiet walk together. This gentle boy is ready to give all his love to the right person — could it be you?

Watch my video on my meeting cats! (As part of our dedication to the welfare of all animals under our care, we conduct basic cat testing for dogs brought into our rescue. However, it's essential to understand that while we strive to assess their compatibility with cats, we cannot guarantee their behavior in all situations.)

History: Zappa and his siblings were abandoned outside a local animal clinic.

Before leaving Cortez Rescue, all dogs will be given a full medical assessment to ensure optimum health, be current on vaccinations, and spayed/neutered. All dogs are micro-chipped before leaving Mexico.
