You may have heard that some bears aren't that friendly, but you've never met our LADY BEAR! Lady Bear is a very chill laid back lady, who would love a chill laid back person to spend her forever with. She was found as a stray in Philly and is now searching for her forever.
She is available for adoption and foster at ACCT Philly. You can meet her any day from 10am-6pm. Interested fosters should email foster@acctphilly.org.

Behavior:
Per Volunteer 7/14/24:
Very chill girl! When I approached her kennel she remained very calm, then hopped up when I opened the door and allowed leashing very easily. Outside was very patient while I put a bandana on her! She took pets all over and took treats from me very gently. Didn't show much interest in toys, was very calm cool and collected!
Per Staff 7/11/24:
Lady Bear was curled up on her bed when the handler approached. She looked up with semi soft eyes but did not move. When the handler opened the door and crouched down Lady Bear came up slowly, and she began trembling. She sniffed the handler nicely and allowed her to reach over her head and leash her easily. She came out slowly on her own once secured.
Lady was nervous in the room but would choose to stay near us and follow close. She had soft eyes and would nudge herself close to us. She kept a tucked tail but would lean in for pets and rest her head on our laps gazing up with soft eyes. She was a bit snatchy with treats ta times so use an open palm. She was a sweet and timid girl outside.

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!
