Hello, my name is Zeuma ... it wasn't always Zeuma, but my new parents picked this one, with the help of my two big human brothers, for me. I was abandoned in Omaha Nebraska in February of this year...

I was found by a very nice lady who took me into her shelter with lots of other dogs and promised me a new, good home, as soon as she found one. Beings as I am a Kuvasz, a breed she is not familiar with, she also promised me that my new parents would have to know about my breed. She searched for my old parents high and low, but they were not found, or did not want to be found. She kept me in her home... Yep, I'm that nice. she took me to HER house. Somehow she located the Kuvasz rescue site and let these nice people know I was available for a new home. It took a little while, all the time she loved me, brushed me, cleaned me up, gave me treats, I love treats, and generally took good care of me.

In May of this year, my new parents had their hearts broken when they lost their first Kuvasz, Zeus. My Mom went on to the Internet that day and started searching Kuvasz 'anything' until she found the rescue site. She knew she and Dad wanted another Kuvasz, and because of the way they lost my brother had decided to help a Kuvasz in need. See, they too, were in need.

Their hearts were broken and helping another Kuvasz would help them heal, too. They first were directed by the Georgia Kuvasz rescue rep, Robin Miller, to another male Kuvasz... His name was Spencer. Another lady in Georgia that Robin knew, had also recently lost her beloved Kuvasz, and had agreed to take Spencer out of the shelter he was abandoned in, and give him foster care until a new family could be found for him. But, she fell madly in love with him and kept him as her own.... Another wonderful home for another needy Kuvasz!

Whew, it was close there...... Then Robin told Mom of a dog (That's Me !) that was found in Nebraska in February and may still be available.....Guess what? I was still hanging out with the nice lady who saved my life, and still needed a place to call my own. My Mom got in touch with the lady in Nebraska and gosh, that seems so far away now.... And after careful screening, and with the help and assistance of another Kuvasz rescue person in California, Gail Dash, who had initially told Robin about me and was also trying very hard to find me a new home, I became official, I was going to New Jersey... Hey Wait a minute what and where is New Jersey? And, they were putting me on an airplane... Those noisy things that help to muffle the sounds of the squirrels I'm trying to hear! Help,an airplane ... they're fast and BIG ... even bigger than me!

On May 21st I was taken for a ride to the airport and gently placed into a crate.... Never been in one of these before. This forklift picked up my crate and loaded me onto the airplane... The nice lady cried and cried. She was sad to see me go, but happy to know my Mom & Dad would be waiting for me when I landed.

I landed in Newark New Jersey ... gosh it's humid here! Mom & Dad were there waiting with my new human brother, Jason. Into a van I went and on my way home.... Yes, I was going to have a place to call HOME ! Hold it, these people seemed nice, but what if they are not really nice.... I'll have to keep checking them out for a while... OK, we got to their house,I'm not quite ready to call it home yet..... It will take some time.....They have two other dogs, Cockers, little black ones, well if these two survived it cannot be too bad, but I'm still going to be cautious.

I have my own table to eat from, Dad made it. Nice...... I have a big fenced yard to play in, OK....... They have a big bag of dog food, better not let them know I'll sneak into the bag when they aren't looking........And they do give good ear rubs. We'll see tomorrow.....

Mom is taking me for my Canine Good Citizen test soon- Mom tells me I'll get to have the letters CGC after my name then. I want to make Mom proud and pass this test.

They get up and feed me nice and early and go out into the yard to play with me and the other dogs... So far so good........

And the story goes on, these people were nice. and they really do love me a lot. I have been here almost two months now. We all took time getting used to each other, They know to hide the big bag of dog food from me....They even found out that they need to hide the pigs ears (my favorite) from me. And I know now that when they go out and leave me home that they will come home. It is my job to take care of the house, the yard and my brother and sisters, (yep they have a cat, too, I like cats) while they are away.

Whenever Mom & Dad have company they tell me that it's OK to have these people in the house. I'm real good about that. Some of Mom & Dad's friends even bring their dogs for me to play with.... Those darn Cockers just won't play. They think I'm too big and will hurt them.... Silly dogs.....

My Mom was so thrilled with the things the people at Kuvasz rescue did for me and them, she has volunteered to work as a rescue rep. We, yes I help, too... I sit right with Mom when she is working on the computer, and try to find humans dogs to make them as happy as Mom & Dad are. And we try to find dogs, humans to make them as happy as I am.... Now Mom & Dad are even going to get me a Kuvasz brother or sister, to play with... I cannot wait! This will be fun.

Any Kuvasz that needs a good home, the rescue people make sure it's a good home! Or any humans looking to provide a good home ... please let the nice people at Kuvasz rescue help you. There are some of my Kuvasz brothers and sisters needing good loving homes to protect and love.

Thank You Kuvasz Rescue!
