Sully Zada
Co-pilot
Sullivan (Sully) Zada is a German Shepherd/Pitbull mix who found his forever home in early 2020. He is an avid outdoorsman who takes his responsibilities seriously - whether it's pressing the crosswalk button on morning runs or sniffing out and chasing his favorite animal, the bumblebee. He's got a loud bark, an even bigger heart, and is always ready for a game of tug or a cuddle on the couch. Sully was born in Calistoga and was fostered by Wine Country Animal Lovers until he was 10 months old.
