Meet Doug – Your Gentle, Wrinkly-Faced Shadow 🐾

If you’re looking for a quiet, low-maintenance companion with a heart of gold and the most irresistibly squishable face, meet Doug! This 5-year-old English Bulldog has made incredible progress since entering rescue just a month ago, and now he’s ready to find a forever home that will give him the patience, comfort, and love he deserves.

Doug is a sensitive guy who finds peace in the little things — like curling up in his crate, watching the world go by, or enjoying gentle neck scratches (his absolute favorite!). While he’s still learning to be brave, Doug will sometimes tiptoe out to greet you with soft eyes and a wag before returning to his cozy safe space.

He may be shy, but Doug is all heart. He’s incredibly gentle, non-reactive, and quiet — seriously, we’ve only heard him bark a handful of times! He’s made excellent progress with potty training (just two accidents total!) and gets along beautifully with both dogs and cats.

Doug’s Best Traits:

An adorably wrinkly face you’ll want to smooch (if he’s cool with it 😄)

A big fan of his crate — it's his happy place

Practically silent — your neighbors will love him

Gets along with other pets

Potty training champ

Doug’s Ideal Home:
Doug is looking for a calm, understanding home with older children or adults only, as he can be easily startled by sudden noises or activity. His perfect match will be someone who respects his need to go slow, is willing to carry him outside if he’s feeling too anxious (yes, he’s a bit of a “meatball,” but so worth it!), and understands that his journey toward confidence is still unfolding.

A fenced yard would be a dream come true for Doug, but a committed family who’s cautious with leashing and door safety would be just as amazing.

The Details:
Doug is neutered, up to date on all vaccinations, and currently being fostered in Lancaster County, PA. Potential adopters must be willing to make two visits — one to meet Doug (with all household members present), and a second to bring him home if it’s a match. This helps ensure Doug feels safe and secure with his new people.

Doug might not be the life of the party, but if you give him time and love, he’ll quietly become your most loyal, snuggly sidekick. 💛 Apply at www.zoeshouserescue.com

Hi Friends!

Hope everyone is enjoying this hot and humid summer Sunday 😊 We are having a great day over here at Zoe’s House and wanted to share our happiness with all of you in this weeks edition of Adoption Stories ❤️

We have had quite a few adoptions over the last 2 weeks, all are very special to us. We could not be happier for each of these pups and all the humans involved!

Just incase you missed our original post, our goal is to do an Adoption Story Sunday post on the 2nd and last Sunday of each month. This will be where we can showcase all our foster doggies that have found their furevers. We think it is very important to share the end of each pups transition from rescued to adopted ❤️ We know so many of our followers become invested in our pups and their stories, we want to make sure you all get to see how their stories end.

Houston there is a BIG update for LOLA!!!

I like big mutts and I cannot lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a big dog on a leash……

Ok so we tested Lola with a male rottie, female lab, and Nessie. Did she growl? yes. Did she go after anyone….no.

So we believe she would do well with a big dog that just doesn’t care, or submissive. Best news ever. She will still need fed separately but this is big! Obviously a meet snd greet with all family members - two and 4 legged is required.

Lola needs a chance to be loved 🥰

Hi there!
My name is Amie, and I’m a sweet and spunky 2-year-old mini poodle looking for a forever family to call my own. I’m full of life and love to play—especially with toys! Whether it’s tossing them in the air or proudly carrying them around, toys make me oh-so-happy.

I also love spending time in the yard, sniffing around and enjoying the sunshine. A fenced yard would be a dream come true for me! I get along well with other dogs, but I’ll be honest—sometimes I can be a little protective of my food around them. A little patience and structure go a long way in helping me with that.

Overall, I’m a joyful, affectionate pup who’s ready to bring laughter, tail wags, and toy-filled adventures to my forever home. If you think we might be a match, let’s get in touch—my foster family would love to tell you more about me!

Love,
Amie

Amie is a 2-year-old mini poodle who is up-to-date on vaccines, has been spayed, and is located in the Berks County area. She is seeking a home within a 2–3 hour radius.

Meet Lizzie – Your Loyal Little Shadow

Lizzie is an adorable 8-year-old Morkie (Maltese/Yorkie mix) with a heart full of love and a gentle soul. She absolutely adores cuddling and being close to her person—whether she’s snuggling on the couch, resting at your feet, or following you from room to room, Lizzie is happiest when she’s by your side.

She enjoys the company of her foster dog siblings and gets along well with other small dogs, but she’d also be perfectly content as the only pup in the home. Lizzie is flexible—as long as she’s loved!

Lizzie has lost most of her teeth, but that doesn’t slow her down at all. She recently had a dental cleaning, eats just fine, and is otherwise in great health.

At bedtime, Lizzie would love nothing more than to sleep in the big bed with you—she tends to cry if she knows you’re in bed but she’s not right there with you. She truly just wants to be close and feel secure.

Lizzie is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and ready to find her forever home where she can enjoy the comfort, warmth, and companionship she craves.

If you're looking for a devoted companion with lots of love (and cuddles!) to give, Lizzie may be your perfect match.

Meet little Miss Molly the Bichon!

She is 5 years old and 10 pounds of pure love. She was saved from a life of breeding, and a life without much love. Because loving is new to her she is still unsure of the people around her and will take additional time to warm up. She does not "do" steps. She can but expects to be carried. She loves her foster sisters and seeks solace in their company. She is new to potty training and we have had success and then set backs which is normal for a mill dog. She takes her cues from her foster siblings and would do best with a time structured potty schedule. She has only known our fenced in yard however, she gives minimal resistance on a leash so she should be able to be leash trained for potty time for those without a yard. She is currently crated when we are not home. She doesn't like it, but it keeps her safe. She sleeps with us and likes to feel a person next to her at night.

She is up to date on all vaccines, spayed, had a dental and is on preventatives. Due to her breed she will need a family committed to getting her groomed about every 6 weeks.

If you are looking for a complete cuddle bug, who loves your attention but doesn't demand it, then Molly might be for you!

MEET PATCHES

It appears there are only 100 Dalmatians left, as one is right here waiting for her PURFECT forever home!
Patches is a small 8-month-old purebred Dalmatian puppy full of the energy of a young one, with a zest for everything that comes her way. She is deaf in one ear, but that doesn’t stop her. She responds to commands and comes when called (well mostly anyway).

She is doing amazing things in her foster home in Wernersville filled with 5 other Dalmatians. She was surrendered at no fault of her own as her previous owners did not have the space for her to run. Dalmatians are a very smart, intelligent breed eager to please. They bond quickly with their humans. The ideal home would be with another younger dog that wants to play and a fenced yard. She is crate trained and sleeps peacefully in her crate all night with a bone or non-rip chew toy.
Breed experience would be preferred as they are active dogs, and they shed fur 365 days a year. An additional vacuum would be recommended to be added to the household. In the world of Dalmatians, we call it “GLITTER”
Potty training is still a work in progress, but a good routine is showing few accidents.
She is spayed, updated on all her shots and preventatives.
She is a very good girl and eagerly awaiting her new best friend.

A lovely freedom ride for Leah, a timstamped ACCT Philly pup who found her way to the shelter when her owner of 5 years became homeless and could no longer care for her. She served as an emotional support animal for her disabled owner during this time. She is overwhelmed with joy to be leaving the shelter and is expressing her gratitude with kisses on her ride to her foster home 🥰 Leah is already spayed, but will not yet be available until she is fully vetted. Keep an eye out for her upcoming post!

Meet Miss Meelu!
She is a sweet 5 month old 13lb female Bernadoodle that came to us when she didn’t sell from a breeder. Meelu loves to snuggle on the couch and can be so affectionate and playful when comfortable. She is still a little shy and learning that people are not scary. Meelu would do best in a low noise activity home without small children because she startles easily. Meelu is very friendly with other dogs and would love to have a small playful sibling who could continue to help her come out of her shell. She would also love a family who wouldn’t mind snuggling in bed with her. When her foster family is not home Meelu waits for them in her crate; while it’s not her favorite she doesn’t make a big fuss. She loves treats and has been doing extremely well with potty training; however regression is normal in new environments. Meelu is still learning to walk on a leash. She loves her toys and to run around outside, but her absolut favorite are quiet snuggles on the couch. She is Spayed, Microchipped, up to date on Vaccines and on preventatives.
If Meelu sounds like the Puppy for you please Apply at www.zoeshouserescue.com Meelu is being Fostered in Berks county PA.
