My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Moose!

🐾 Breed: Golden Retriever

🐾 Age: 1 year old
🐾 Size: 82 lbs (currently)

🐾 Energy Level: Active & Playful

🐾 Good with Kids?: Older kids, may be too much for young children

🐾 Good with Other Dogs?: Yes, but can be a little too "in your face" for some dogs

🐾 Location: York Haven, PA
About Moose:
 Meet Moose, the lovable goofball with a heart full of joy! At just one year old, Moose is already full of personality and affection. This active boy loves going on walks, lounging on the couch, playing with his toys (especially balls and chew bones), and sitting on laps—he’s truly a snuggle buddy at heart.
While Moose has been through a lot, he’s ready to find a forever home where he can live his best life. Moose was surrendered due to bilateral hip dysplasia, and while his left hip has already been repaired, he will eventually need surgery for his right hip within the next 1-2 years. His weight needs to be carefully managed to help with his hip health, but he’s still an energetic pup who loves to play and explore.
What makes Moose special?
Moose is a “ladies’ man” who thrives on human companionship and loves being around people and other dogs.
He's a little too enthusiastic for small children but would do best in a home with older kids or adults who can keep up with his playful nature.
He has a sensitive stomach and skin, so he’s on a special diet and takes a daily probiotic.
Moose enjoys toys, and while he takes good care of most, he also has a playful side and may tear up a toy or two—especially when there’s a squeaker involved!
He’s very much a "lap dog" and loves being near his humans, whether it's lounging on the couch or going for a walk.
Moose is learning leash manners, and while he can be a bit of a puller, he responds well to guidance from his foster family.
He’s also a car companion, as long as he’s close to someone he trusts.
Moose needs a home where he can get plenty of love, attention, and the care he deserves. He’s looking for a family that understands his medical needs, can help him maintain a healthy weight, and provide lots of fun and affection. If you're looking for a playful, snuggly companion and are willing to work with him on his needs, Moose might be the perfect fit for you!
Will you give this big goofball the loving home he’s waiting for? 🐾💛

More about this rescue

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!
