Story
Hi, I'm Daisy! I am a 7 year old Female Shih Tzu. I came to Zoe's House from a commercial breeder where I was bred to make puppies. This was my whole life so I was a little nervous being in a house and with people. I have come to enjoy being petted and will seek this out sometimes. I know my name and will respond when called. Also I respond to finger clicks and a gesture such as when it is time to go in my crate to eat or to go outside. I'm a smart girl just a bit shy at first. I don't really play much. I never got to learn to. I really like other dogs and will cuddle with them if they are calm like me. I am up to date on vaccines and spayed already. I am still working on housebreaking but have made really good progress in this area. I don't like using my crate to potty in. I will do business outside if I'm taken out regularly. I require a home with another calm dog please. I was around kids and am good with them if they know to respect my space and don't pester me all of the time. Kids 5 and up would probably be best. While a fence is not required I really love the free space to run. I just need a secure way to keep me safe when I'm outside. No running loose for me please. I've come too far to be hurt or lost! I'm being fostered in Schuylkill County so any potential adopters will have to travel to meet him. If you believe that Daisy is a good fit for you, please apply at https://www.zoeshouserescue.com/adopt. Zoe's House Kennel #9117 Sinking Spring, PA 19608

Story
"Hello! Pleased to meet you! My name is Austin, and I am a simple man - food, people, naps, you know, the good stuff! I'm easy to please and I like everyone. I am loving life in my foster home and I will fit into most any forever home. I'm calm and collected, and my foster mom says I am a little gentleman. I like other dogs just fine and I'm cool with the cats too. Nothing really bothers me! I do have a bit of a sensitive tummy though - so no cheat days on my diet. I am doing well on my food now that I'm used to it and even put on a few much needed pounds since I came to the rescue! I'm still a little guy though, weighing in at 14 pounds. I am very patient and gentle, but I'm a little timid at first. It took me a few days to warm up to my foster mom, and now she is my BFF! I like to wander in the yard but I don't have a good sense of direction, so I will need to be leash walked or have a fenced yard. Either is fine with me! I am almost house broken, but you'll need to give me frequent potty breaks so I don't have accidents. My foster mom says that accidents are normal in a new environment. I am very clean in my crate - no accidents, even overnight. I am quiet when my foster mom goes out and I nap in my crate until she gets back. It is my safe space and I really like my bed in there. Would you like to meet me? I am neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm negative, and I have been monthly preventatives for fleas and ticks. I'm being fostered in southern Lancaster county, and interested folks will need to come to my foster home to meet me. Please plan on bringing the whole family and any existing dogs in the home so we can make sure its a good match. PS: I just got a short summer haircut. My hair was not well kept before I came to Zoe's, and I needed to start fresh. I feel great now, I like being clean and spiffy! I am very compliant and easy to groom too!" Ready to meet Austin?
