Are you looking for the perfect partner? If so, this little lovebug will be the perfect addition. Shep is a sweet, lovable, cuddly 6 year old Collie Mix of some sort who spent his entire life at a commercial breeding facility. This has not brought him down.
Shep is a little shy at first but loves to be pet and cuddled by his family. He loves people but not loud noise so he's looking quiet home with no children where he can have all your attention. All this boy wants is loved! He bonds quickly and showers his owner with all the love and affection he has. He is house trained and doesn't seem to shed, but we wouldn't consider him hypoallergenic. He hasn't quite mastered stairs yet (they are just too scary) so a home where he can be comfortable downstairs or a ranch would be ideal.
Shep needs to loose a little weight and loves to be outside so a home with a fenced in yard where he can explore or a quiet neighborhood where you can walk him is a must. His ideal weight is about 55 pounds so he has about 10 more pounds to go. If you give him a chance, he will be the perfect addition to your family.
Shep is UTD on vaccines, spayed, chipped and ready for her forever family! If you think that could be you, please visit zoeshouserescue.com to apply.

Who We Are:
Zoe's House, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit animal welfare group based out of Sinking Spring,PA. We are comprised solely of volunteers that generously volunteer their time, their homes and their hearts. We are dedicated to rescuing homeless, neglected or abandoned animals from high kill shelters or from owners who can no longer care for them. We provide the animals with loving foster care, veterinary treatment and rehabilitation until we are able to pair them with compatible and loving forever homes. At times we also offer permanent sanctuary to those with special or medical needs and that are considered unadoptable.
Zoe's House serves as a resource to our community and to our adopters by providing education and information on responsible pet ownership, the importance of spay/neuter, behavior training, nutrition, puppy mill awareness, heartworm preventative and breed education. Our organization also networks with other shelters and rescues. We try to assist other organizations when possible.
Zoe’s House is not federally funded, and relies solely on donations to continue to rescue. Although we are not breed specific, the need to save Dobermans, Rottweilers, German Shepherds and Pitbulls is ever growing; therefore, we have focused primarily on saving the lives of our beloved and majestic strong breeds.
What We do:
There are many people involved in the rescue, rehabilitation and re-homing of each dog we take in. Our rescue effort starts with the initial intake request for a dog. Whether this be at a shelter of from an individual in the community, we try to gather as much information as we can. We then pickup or transport the dog to safety in rescue. At this time we administer immediate veterinary care to determine the health of the dog and ensure the animal has proper immunizations. We also have bloodwork done for a heartworm check, lyme, fecal and sometimes a blood panel depending on the age and health of the dog. The dog remains in "in-home" foster care and becomes a part of the fosters family for an undefined period of time. We evaluate the dog and work on basic manners and obedience. At times we have dogs for a longer duration due to health and/or age. The dogs in our care come with us to adoption events, home screenings, and ultimately permanent placement. Zoe's House then provides post-adoption follow-up and support and welcomes the new family to the "Zoe's House Family!" We strive to stay in close contact with all of our adopters to ensure the transition and life long relationship continues to be magical. We remain dedicated to the principal that we never want one of our rescues to end up in a shelter or in a home that does not provide a responsible and loving environment for the life of the animal.
We truly believe that one dog at a time... we are making a difference!
