Story
Meet Raya! Cute, quirky, and just a little goofy - Raya is a sweet 4 YO 13lb Shih-chon whose gentle personality slowly shines brighter as she feels safe. That said, if you’re looking for a cuddle bug who instantly wants to be your shadow and very best friend from day one, Raya is not that dog. Raya came from a commercial breeding situation and is still learning what it means to be a pet. She needs patience, consistency, and love - and in return, Raya will continue to make meaningful progress, just as she has in her foster home. During the workday, Raya tends to keep to herself and is content doing her own thing. In the evenings, she enjoys being on the couch with her foster family. She may need a little coaxing to get there, but once she’s settled, Raya is happy to relax, lay with you and be pet. Raya loves interacting with playful dogs and truly thrives around them. An ideal home would have another confident, friendly dog who can help build Raya’s confidence and show her the ropes of the good life. A canine companion is strongly preferred. Raya sleeps in a crate at night and does well with a predictable, structured routine. Housebreaking is still a work in progress, and Raya is continuing to gain confidence on leash. Because Raya has lingering fears from her past life, a secure, fenced-in yard is non-negotiable for her safety. Due to her sensitivity, Raya requires a home with no children under 12. With time, attention, love, and patience, Raya will continue her journey into becoming a well-loved family member. She’s not an instant love bug but she is deeply rewarding for the right home and deserves to be in an environment where she will thrive. Raya is up to date on vaccines, Spayed, Microchipped, Dental completed (bad teeth removed) Raya is sweet, endearing, and learning every day what it means to feel safe. If you believe in patience, kindness, and letting a dog move at her own pace, Raya may be the perfect fit for you. Please apply only on our website, zoeshouserescue.com.

Story
Wicked: For Good fans, look no further! While the first four years of “Elphie” Elphaba’s life were Something Bad, she is looking forward to Defying Gravity with her forever family. It only took One Short Day to change this 4-year-old beauty’s life. Now, she is Dancing Through Life and thriving! She is sure to be Popular with her soulful brown eyes and cuddly, snuggly personality. She loves relaxing by her people and laying on the floor where the sun can hit her belly. Elphaba will ALWAYS be the first one to greet you at the door with tail wags and kisses! She has LOVED belly rubs from the moment she entered foster care! There is not a Wicked bone in her body; she’s Not That Girl. Elphie is great in her crate. Aside from being crate trained, she is also housebroken and has never had an accident. She enjoys her walks, does well on a leash, and was a quick learner! She is extremely smart and caught on quickly. Like most dogs, Elphaba does great with structure and a consistent routine. Some regression is normal in a new home, though. Elphaba gets along very well with other dogs, but she would also do well as an only dog. She has not been fostered in a home with children, but she is kind to children who want to pet her while on walks. Elphaba is up-to-date on vaccines, monthly flea/tick/heartworm preventative, and is spayed and microchipped. Elphie says, “As Long As You’re Mine, everything will be Wonderful!” Are you ready to be changed For Good? Apply to adopt Elphaba today at www.zoeshouserescue.com!

Story
So this is Walter. Named after that cranky old man puppet who looks like he’s been mad since the Carter administration. Accurate? Painfully. Let me be clear: Walter did not wake up one day and choose violence. Walter woke up one day and chose survival. This little dude came out of a hoarding situation with 51 other dogs, which means: • zero personal space • zero dignity • and about zero reason to trust humans who keep saying “it’s fine” while everything is, in fact, not fine And yet look at him. Standing there like: “I’ve seen things. I’ve smelled things. And if you touch my snacks wrong, I will file a complaint.” Same, Walter. Same. He’s not aggressive. He’s not mean. He’s just done with nonsense—and honestly? Respect. Walter doesn’t need chaos. He’s lived it. He needs a quiet home, soft beds, regular meals, and people who understand that old souls don’t do well with foolishness or loud noises or whatever you call children. So if you want a dog who: • judges silently • bonds deeply • and will absolutely side-eye bad decisions from across the room Congratulations. Walter is your guy. And before anyone asks—yes, he will warm up. But like me, he requires snacks, patience, and proof you’re not an idiot. —Gumbo 🐾 Chief Spokesdog, Protector of the Tired, Union Rep for Dogs Who Are Over It Adoption Fee: $250 Currently located in Fosters, AL and can be transported North (VT, PA, or CT) to an adopter!

Story
Kitty is an exquisite little Shih Tzu/Terrier mix with a sweet personality. She's about 1 year old and weighs between 12 and 15 pounds. (Because she's so small, any very young child in the home should have experience with such a little dog.) She loves toys and is very playful with other dogs. Shy at first, that doesn't last for long. Kitty came to us severely matted, so she will definitely need periodic grooming. What a delight this girl is! (posted 12/29/25, ME) Adoption Fee: $395.00-- covers microchip, worming, all vaccines, monthly heart worm preventative, monthly tick/flea preventative, spaying/neutering, health certificate, and complete medical records. Transport Fee: $160.00-- We consider the transport to be of great importance and, as such, take particular care of the dogs during the trip. We make every effort to arrive with healthy and minimally stressed dogs. **It is rare that we know with certainty the ages or mixes that make up our dogs, but we do our best to be as accurate as possible based upon our experience. **December 29, 2025, 3:31 pm
