Transcript
00:00Hi, it's DHA's Rockin' Russ and I am Terri Carr. I am here with my friends Olivia and Don from
00:08Associated Humane Societies of Newark, New Jersey. I always say AHS has the most lovely,
00:15well-behaved dogs. We have had them out at WDHA events for years, MVPs of our events all the time
00:22and they're usually, not all the time, but a lot of the time larger dogs. Yes. Larger, bigger guys
00:29I got to tell you a little bit about Zach because Zach is not a stranger to me. I met Zach last
00:35September and it is almost impossible for me guys to believe and understand how he is still at the
00:43shelter. This is Mr. Happy. As you could see, he's got the tail that I, that I love where I almost
00:51call it like machine tail where you go boop, boop, boop, boop and you get the wag. Zach is good with
00:56other dogs. Very respectful, plays super nice. He's just a really happy-go-lucky guy. Olivia,
01:03tell us a little bit about Zach and what you've experienced with him at the shelter. So Zach has
01:08come a long way. He's been in the shelter over a year. No! I know. It kills us. This little bulldog mix
01:14is so friendly. Like Terri was saying, he's so respectful with other dogs. He plays so nicely
01:20with every single dog that he meets. He was at the Dog Days of Summer event this weekend,
01:26just loving everybody's dog. Zach prefers an adult-only home, so we're looking for a big dog
01:33experienced. But I mean, he's a great dog. He walks very nicely on leash. He has a great set of
01:39commands. You know, sit, down, shake. He's very intelligent, super treat motivated. We're just
01:45confused as to why this loving dog has been in the shelter over a year. Yet his only detriment in
01:50the car is he does try to kiss you when you are driving the car. But he's just such a loving guy
01:57and deserves a home of his own. Everybody is a friend to Zach, and you will see that in his piece
02:03as we check him out interacting with our staff on WDHA's Rock and Rough. The Zach attack in a good
02:08way. I love this dog. I love this dog. Hey friends, Terri Carr here, and I want you to meet
02:13Zach. One of my favorite WDHA Rock and Rough dogs ever. He is the happiest, friendliest guy.
02:21Zach is from the Associated Humane Society of Newark, New Jersey, and Zach has been at the
02:26shelter looking for a home for way too long, actually going on one year, and we cannot figure
02:33out why. This bulldog mix has not been adopted yet. Zach is great with other dogs of all sizes.
02:40In fact, he was an MVP of WDHA's Dog Days of Summer, meeting, greeting, and playing with
02:46just about everyone. Zach is always smiling. He's housebroken, great on a leash, does really
02:52well in the car, and would love his very own family to call his own. Big dog lovers, where
02:58are you? Let's get Zach out of the shelter. If you are looking for a great Zach to join your
03:04pack, this guy is the dog for you. Adopt Zach.
03:08Zach. I told you, isn't he great? Now, of course, Jim Monaghan from the WDHA Morning
03:13Jolt is here. Zach definitely had an affinity for Jim. I mean, he met him 30 seconds ago
03:19and was literally like, where's Jim? Where's Jim? Where's Jim? So we called Jim out of the
03:23office. Isn't this a great dog?
03:24He is beautiful.
03:25He is beautiful. He is super sweet. And Olivia, you guys are getting ready to launch like
03:29a cool sort of Zach on Social Media campaign. Tell us a little bit about it.
03:34This week on social media, on our platforms, on Facebook and Instagram, you'll find Zach
03:38posted every single day in our social media storm called The Zach Attack, where we're going
03:44to be posting a cool fact about Zach every single day. So definitely look out for that
03:48on our pages.
03:49I love this dog. And we got to get him out of the shelter and into a home as soon as possible.
03:57I mean, as Olivia said, he's been in the shelter a year. I mean, I mean, this is just crazy.
04:02And he's such a sweet, friendly guy. So he's going for the office. And I tell you, he wants
04:08to stay at WDHA and hang out with all of us. Does very well with other dogs, as always,
04:13though, a proper introduction, always a must. But let's get Zach into the home that he truly,
04:19truly deserves. WDHA's Rock and Rough, powered by my animal-loving friends at Trost Auto Body,
04:24Trost Trost, your pet-friendly auto body shop. All of our great friends at Dover Dodge Chrysler
04:29Jeep Ram, of course, on Route 46 and Rockaway. Zoom and Groom, you bark, we park. Zoom and Groom
04:35will come and make your dogs look nice and spiffy. They were at our event as well.
04:39And my great friends at Hometown Pet Shop, brand new location, right in Morris Plains,
04:45New Jersey. I'm going to be out there this weekend. So really, really looking forward
04:49to that. Let's get Zach into a home. Olivia, if people want to get in touch with you,
04:53how can they find you guys? You can find us on Facebook and Instagram. You can come right
04:58to the shelter to meet Zach. We're open 12 to 5, 7 days a week for any adoption convenience.
05:03Zach is already neutered, so he is ready to go. His bags are packed. All he needs is a
05:09family. All he needs is a family to call his own. I am on a mission. Let's get Zach into
05:14a home. Guys, thank you so much, Jim. Thanks for the cameo for DHA's Rock and Rough. I am
05:19Terry Carr, along with Olivia, Don, Jim, and Zach, who is making himself very much at home
05:24at the WDHA Studios, reminding you to opt to adopt.
