Size

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
We bought Benson from a breeder when he was 8 weeks old in May 2025. Since we brought him home, he's had issues with resource/food guarding, so we took him to a trainer where he learned how to obey basic commands (sit/stay/lay/drop/leave it/come). He is also house and crate trained. He's generally a sweet boy, loves to run, LOVES to chase balls, and enjoys being in the middle of things, but unfortunately, his resource guarding has not improved and he is unpredictable with our young children. He has bitten our 5 year old and shown aggression towards him, but has not shown that same aggression towards older children (teenagers) or adults that know how to act around dogs. Benson would do very well in an adult-only home.We do have another (elderly) dog that he gets along with well, though he is a bit rough with her. He has socialized with other similar-sized dogs as well and would likely love to live in a home with a companion that has a similar amount of energy and can keep up with him.

Hi. PLEASe do not respond if you are more than 100 miles from 17557. Thanks! Pearl is an almost 2 year old Mini Goldendoodle. She is a sweetheart as you can see in the pictures. She is crate trained, potty trained, and gets along with other dogs, our cat, and kids. Her coloring is Apricot with white highlights. The last picture is her outside. She looks lighter outside and darker inside. She loves to play and cuddle. We are only letting her go due to adult health issues. Please do not message if you are not serious (happened before). Thanks all!

Story
Marigold, known as Mary is a sweet 6 year old golden retriever, who is obsessed with human attention. She wants to be your best friend and will lick you to prove it. She’s pretty lowkey and chill, with a silly streak and loves to roll around and chase her tail. She startles easily with sudden movements, so she’d do best with older kids who get boundaries and aren’t super unpredictable around her. Mary would do best as your one and only. She’s not really interested in other dogs, and she can get possessive over her toys and chews when other dogs are around (she’s totally fine about it with people). So a home where she doesn’t have to share is ideal. She doesn’t need a fenced-in yard, but she’s used to having one. She walks pretty good on a leash! Right now she’s learning about all the luxuries of life and loving every second of it. She just loves her people and attention. She will be your best friend and loyal shadow! Mary is spayed, up to date on shots and is being fostered in Lancaster County, PA. To apply visit www.zoeshouserescue.com Kennel license 9117 Reading PA 19608
