My story

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

Meet handsome Nugget!
He is a 3 year old Cavapoo, weighing in at about 25 pounds. Nugget was surrendered from a commercial breeder and was badly matted when rescued. Although he was initially terrified, he soon relaxed after being bathed and trimmed and welcomed into his loving foster home. Over the next days, he learned to trust his foster family, playing with the resident dog, and enjoying good food and yummy treats😊 Nugget has turned into one of the best snugglers.
He loves to play, go for walks, and occasionally chew things he shouldn’t. He is great with kids, and other dogs in a small setting. He quickly mastered sit and no, and is still working on some other basic commands, but he is very smart and picks things up quickly.

Nugget is still a little skittish at times and often timid when first meeting someone new, which doesn’t last long if they give him treats and pets. He is almost completely potty trained but will have an accident here and there, and of course there may be some regression when moving to his furever home. He is crate trained as well.

Nugget will do well in almost any home, but he would benefit from a resident dog who he can continue to learn from. He would love children to play with, and needs adults who will make him feel safe. He is neutered, and up to date on all vaccines and preventatives.

Nugget is being fostered in Lancaster, Pa and all potential adopters should be prepared to travel there for the adoption. A home visit and meet and greet with resident pets is part of the application process. If you are interested, please fill out an application at www.zoeshouserescue.com
Nugget is going to make a great pet and companion to whomever is lucky enough to adopt him!

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!
