Story
Hi, my name is Ginny! I am a 6 y/o Shorkie (Shih Tzu/Yorkie), weighing in at 11 pounds. I was surrendered to Zoe’s House by a breeder who didn't need me anymore. I’ve been hanging out with my awesome foster family for a while so they could get to know me and help me find my forever family. My foster Mom said I was a little standoffish at first, but it didn’t take me long to warm up once I knew I was safe and no one would hurt me. Since then, I’ve been loving all the attention I get from my foster family. My ideal family would be one that gives me a LOT of attention. I thrive on cuddling, hugs and being as close to my humans as possible. I really hope my forever family will allow me to sleep in bed with them and allow me on their couch to cuddle. I love my people so much that a home where people are home more often than not would be great. I get along well with the other pups in my foster home but I would be perfectly fine being your one and only. My foster home has older kids and I think they are great. Younger kids (under 13) make me nervous. I’m housebroken and will stand by the door when I need to go out. Please remember that regression is normal in new environments. I do not need a home with a fence since I’m fine being taken out to the yard on a leash. I do need more practice going for walks around the neighborhood so I hope my forever family will work on that with me. Zoe’s House has made sure I got spayed and I had some mammary tumors removed. Thankfully the tumors were benign. I’ve also had my teeth professionally cleaned and I had about half of them pulled out. I’m up to date on vaccines and preventatives. I have a clear bill of health and am ready to move on to my forever! I’m being fostered in Blandon, PA so any approved applicant may need to travel here with their dogs before an adoption is approved. If you think you can be my forever family, please apply on zoeshouserescue.com . Kennel License #9117 PO Box 2372 Reading, PA 19608

Story
Buddy Edward is a middle-aged dude with a beer gut - we are working on his weight! He is the happiest, fattest, little Shih Tzu 'around' - he snorts like a bulldog and waddles! He came to rescue at 18 lbs and has been told by our Vet his bloodwork looks great, but his weight is a concern and obesity will cause problems. His foster has him on a diet, special kibble and only one meal a day. Buddy has curly white and tan fur. He had bald spots due to skin infections which have grown back. Due to breed - in addition to exercise, will require extensive grooming! Regular trips to the Salon *Rescue does not complete DNA testing. Breed is based on documentation provided from the original owner and Vet clinic who saw him prior to rescue. Buddy is fostered with cats, small dogs and big dogs. He loves attention and sitting on his foster mom's lap. He is leash trained and potty trained. Loves car rides and 'going anywhere. This breed has a Life Expectancy is 10-15 years. We are seeking a committed family for this piglet. Buddy came to rescue with two dog siblings after his elderly owners could not afford to care for them and taken to a small shelter. The Animal Control Officer contacted CCR and requested help - the dogs were neglected, dirty and not housetrained. They were clearly loved but owners started to struggle to care for themselves and the pets. Buddy has more housetraining than his younger dog friends. Buddy is now up to date on vaccines, dewormed for gut health, microchipped and neutered. He tested negative for heartworms and is on prevention. FOSTERED IN TEXAS. *Adoption Fee ($550.00) includes transport options to PNW (WA, UT, ID), Midwest (MN, WI, MI, OH, IL, IN) or select New England States (NY-NJ-CT-VA-VT) by pet transport partners. Due to Buster's size - he is eligible for travel with Southwest Airlines (Houston to any major airport approved by SWAAT) Canadian adopters must drive to the meet locations in USA. Email to Apply!

The Ranch located at 737 Taylor Rd., Windsor, PA is always looking for dedicated volunteers that will commit to at least a 2 hour shift per week at the rescue.  Volunteers work in play yards, help with laundry and feeding.  Some enjoy landscaping or carpentry projects and some like to bake for the healing center visitors :) Thank you for supporting our mission of caring for the elderly and medically needy souls that need us!
