My story

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

Meet sweet Zucchini.
Zucchini is 5 months old, a “mini” bernedoodle. She is 20 pounds currently, and expected to be a medium sized dog. She was surrendered to Zoe’s House from a commercial breeder with her brother cupid.
Zucchini is the most adorable, precious, cuddly, affectionate, sweetest
puppy her foster family has ever known.
She loves to be held on her back
in your arms or on your chest, just like a baby.
Zucchini is happy, loves to play outside, and loves the cold weather. She is
full of puppy energy. She must have a fenced/secure yard to burn her energy, walks daily would be great as well. She is great with people of all ages, but can jump on on little kids so we prefer ages 6 and up in her new home.
Zucchini currently is being fostered with an 80 lb Bernedoodle and a 10 lb mini Goldendoodle.
She loves to play with them. She is still learning manners, so needs fed separately.
She has not been with any
cats yet, but we can test if needed.
Zucchini is working on her social skills and leash training.
Zucchini is learning “leave it”, “come”, “sit”, “stay”.
Zucchini is a smart puppy, but would benefit from formal puppy training classes and keeping her socialized.
Zucchini follows her foster family everywhere, a little Velcro pup. She will even lay her head on
their feet when they stand still.
She is still afraid of some noises and new
things, but with slow introductions she is more confident with time.
Zucchini will need regular 8-week grooming as this breed requires.
She is working on potty training, she just needs consistency to get there fully in her new home.
She loves to chew things that are no-no's like a typical puppy her age, so she must be supervised when she is awake and roaming around.
Zucchini is spayed, microchipped, utd on vaccines, and preventions. Her adoption donation is $650.
If she sounds like the right fit for your family please apply at: zoeshouserescue.com
(*She is being fostered in Shewsbury, PA. so any potential adopters must travel with all family members/other dogs to meet her.)

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!
