✨ Rufflepuff's Magical Adoption Bio

🪄 Seeking a Family Full of Wonder!
Hello there! My name is Rufflepuff, and I'm a very snuggly, sweet, 4-month-old Mini Bernedoodle searching for my forever family. I have the most magical, blue/brown-colored eyes and a gentle soul that is just beginning to shimmer!
I was recently rescued from a commercial breeder, and I'm currently on a journey of discovery, learning that the human world is full of warmth and love.
A Budding Wizard: I am just learning how wonderful people are. Loud, sudden noises can still scare me, but with every passing day, I find a little more bravery!
Best Fit: I would do best in a calm, patient home with older children (10+) who understand the importance of quiet magic.
Loyal Companion: I absolutely adore other dogs! I need a home with a playful, confident dog companion—they help me realize that even scary things can be conquered!
Ready for Enchantment: I'm making great progress! I am crate trained and mostly housebroken. I walk well on a leash too, as long as there are no spooky sounds or unforeseen charms along the path.
If you have a heart full of patience and the desire to nurture a shy puppy's inner sparkle, please consider opening your home to Rufflepuff!

All potential adopters will need to travel to Lancaster, PA for a meet and greet!

❤️💚❤️ All covered ❤️💚❤️

Happy Black FRIYAY everyone!!! Hope you’re all scoring some great deals 😁 while you’re out shopping could we add something small to your list 😉😉

This year, we were invited to decorate one of the trees at Penn Medicine Christmas tree lane, at the Lancaster Barnstormers Stadium. Our theme is “Furever.” The tree will be decorated with photos of every Zoe’s House adoption from 2025 (that was approved to be shared)—a celebration of the lives changed, the love found, and the families built because of you.

To bring this beautiful vision to life, we’ve created a Wish List of a few supplies we need. If you’re able to contribute, you’ll be helping us create a display that honors the pups we’ve rescued that have received their second chance, their happily ever afters. The incredible journeys they’ve taken from rescue to their forever homes.

We need your help to make something truly special💛🐾

Thank you in advance

Meet Tiana — princess Tiana, that is! 👑
She is a sweet 3-year-old King Charles Cavalier with the classic and beautiful Blenheim coloring. Tiana came to Zoe’s House after being surrendered by a commercial breeder. After spending her first three years on a farm, this girl is *more* than ready to live the royal life she deserves.

Tiana is a certified snuggle queen who loves sleeping in bed and lounging on the couch. She is fully potty trained and prefers quick trips outside before hurrying back in for more cozy time. As with any dog entering a new environment, some regression is always possible.

She does well with children but tends to prefer the calm and companionship of adults. She’s also still learning that leashes aren’t scary, so a fenced yard is preferred to help her feel safe and confident.

Tiana gets along well with other dogs, but she does have a strong interest in chasing cats. She responds well to redirection, but would do best in a home without feline friends.

Tiana is spayed, up-to-date on vaccines and preventatives, and ready for her forever home. If you’re interested in giving her a happily-ever-after, please apply at **zoeshouserescue.com**.

Meet Arlo—a 75-pound, red, cropped-and-docked Doberman who looks like he walked straight off a canine modeling runway… and then immediately tripped because someone said “hello.”

At approximately 3–4 years old, Arlo is tall, lean, handsome, and built like an athlete—but spiritually, he is a soft, nervous lad. Despite his intimidating good looks, Arlo would very much like to inform you that he is not security personnel. If an intruder broke in, he’d politely volunteer to be the last one to meet them, preferably peeking from behind you (which is unfortunate, because he has discovered that most humans are simply not large enough to hide behind).

Arlo missed out on a lot of fun social experiences earlier in life, so the world can be… well, a bit much. Dog bar downtown? Absolutely not—he will write a respectfully worded letter declining the invite. Crowded events? Hard pass. He’d like to stay home with his people, thank you very much, wrapped in the emotional equivalent of a weighted blanket.

Since arriving at Zoe’s House, Arlo has been studying abroad in the foreign land of “Confidence in Public.” His foster monster (mother) has been guiding him through social introductions, and he is currently enrolled in a group training class where he is learning confidence, coping skills, and how not to panic when someone sneezes. Before adoption, he’ll complete that class—and his future humans must continue training OUTSIDE the home so he can keep improving his social swagger.

Arlo would prefer not to be crated, but for safety, he currently resides in what can only be described as a Doberman-grade Fort Knox. He thinks it is rude, unnecessary, and personally offensive—but he tolerates it because he’s a perfect gentleman.

Just like that awkward kid in school who wants friends but doesn’t know how to say “hi” without accidentally yelling it, Arlo needs guidance. With structured, proper introductions, he does very well and becomes a wonderful canine companion. Because he thrives with role models, he must go home with at least one confident dog. He currently lives with two male dogs—a large breed mix and a medium bulldog mix—and does great with both.

Cats and small animals? Absolutely not. Arlo’s prey drive says “yes,” so the answer is a firm “no.”

People, however? Arlo LOVES people. He will wedge his long snoot into your arms, lap, or general personal space and use his paws to petition for unlimited affection.

He is neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccines, recently had a skin tag removed (he says it was unsightly and needed to go), and is being fostered in Harrisburg, PA.

If you've made it this far, Arlo might be your guy. His foster mom says he's perfect, and we think she may be right.💛

She used to have sleepless nights but now her sky is opalite!

Introducing Opal, a sweet as Honey, 2 year old female Maltese who was surrendered from a commercial breeding operation and is ready to prance and dance into her new era as someone’s furever besty.

Opal is initially shy but she seeks out attention and is feisty and playful when she’s gets comfortable. She wants to be with her person all the time and can be vocal when left alone. Her ideal Wishlist would be someone home often, a fenced in yard with another small friendly dog to help show her the ropes and continue learning how to be the best girl. Opal is working on house training but is very good using potty pads inside and she is knocking on Wood hoping her family is out there.

She is up to date on vaccines, preventatives, is spayed, chipped and has and had a dental. Opal is being fostered in Morgantown and we request that adopters be no less than 3 hours from 19543. If you think Opal could be The One, please apply only on our website, zoeshouserescue.com.

**Applications are currently closed, we will be in-touch if you were chosen for a potato**

Introducing The Potato Litter—a batch of irresistibly adorable 6-week-old French Bulldog puppies with a heartwarming rescue story.

Their mama was rescued from a commercial breeder while already pregnant. Once safe, she finally had the chance to rest, heal, and bring her babies into a world filled with love, rather than hardship.

Thanks to lots of work, love and the care they received, these little spuds have grown into healthy, sweet, chubby and bright-eyed pups. Each one is as sweet as their potato-themed name.... soft, round, and full of personality!

They love to explore, tumble around with each other, and snuggle up like a cozy pile of tots. These potatoes are well-socialized, cuddly, and used to handling. They are currently being fostered with large dogs and 3 children.

The Potato Litter will be ready for adoption in just 2 weeks, and they’re searching for forever families who will cherish them the way their mama always deserved.

Whether you prefer a tiny Tater Tot, a bold Augratin, or a snuggly Hashbrown, there’s a perfect little spud waiting to grow roots in your home and arms.

The puppies have received health clearances, age appropriate vaccines and microchips. We will require a spay neuter refundable deposit for them to be spayed or neutered at 6 months old - no exceptions! French bulldogs are notorious for being very expensive dogs to own with numerous health ailments as they age. Please do your research before applying.

Meet and greets will take place in Sinking Spring PA. We will only consider adopters within a 2 hour radius. Please apply at Www.zoeshouserescue.com.

*The Spuds will not leave for their furever homes until 8 weeks old.

Hello, my name is Brookie and I am a 4 y/o, 8lb, Yorkie. The first 4 years of my life were really hard. I was neglected, forced to have litter after litter and never shown any love or affection. My life has definitely changed for the better since being surrendered to Zoe’s House Rescue. Since then I’ve been showered with love and affection and boy does it feel good!

Because of my rough past, I experience separation anxiety when people are not around. I currently take an inexpensive prescription medication to help, but I would really like a forever family or person that is home most of the time. I’m not a fan of my crate, but my foster family knows it is the safest place for me when they leave me alone in the house. I do cry and whine loudly when crated, so I probably wouldn’t do well in an apartment or attached home.

Did I mention how much I love people and dogs? I enjoy meeting new people and love meeting dogs of all sizes. My ideal family won’t mind me wanting to be on their lap or snuggling next to them as much as possible. I also really hope they let me sleep with them in their bed as being close to my people makes me feel secure.

I am housebroken when taken out at regular intervals but please keep in mind that regression is common in new environments. I don’t need a fenced in yard as I am perfectly fine being brought outside to potty on my leash. I still don’t have the confidence to take long walks around the neighborhood, but with continued practice it may be something I could eventually enjoy.

I came to Zoe’s House in rough shape but I’m feeling so much better. All of my teeth have been removed since they were all rotten, but that doesn’t stop me from eating. I get really excited for meal time! I’ve also been spayed and am up to date on all vaccines. I’m finally ready for a family that will always love me and I promise to love them in return!

If you think you might be the perfect person or family for sweet Brookie, please apply for her on the ZH website: www.zoeshouserescue.com

Meet Macy a 24-pound mini red, wavy-coated Goldendoodle who’s convinced every soft blanket was created exclusively for her. She’s 24 pounds of gentle, shy sweetness: the type to dive under the nearest couch at the first rumble of thunder but offer her a treat and she’ll trot right over, tail wagging like a metronome.
Macy adores kids, loves other dogs, and is this close to being fully housebroken. Give her a predictable schedule and she nails it, although some regression may occur. She finds comfort in her crate and leash work is improving every single day—less bouncing, more brilliance.
Macy is up to date on vaccines, spayed and microchipped.
Most of all, Macy is dreaming of a family who’ll let her curl up across their lap and feel safe forever. If you are that family, apply at www.zoeshouserescue.com

Kash Monee Mernar is ready to find his forever!!!

This adorable one year-old Cockapoo is truly a miracle 🙌 He was hit by a car in late August and he sustained multiple pelvic fractures. With the help of a generous sponsor, Zoe’s House took responsibility for his care and he was rushed to Penn Veterinary Hospital where emergency surgery was performed. His tail was severely displaced and had to be amputated but that just means his whole body wags when he is happy to see you 🥰 Kash has spent the last two months rehabbing at Penn and in his foster home. Remarkably, he has good use of both rear legs! Kash is running and playing with his foster fur siblings! He is fully house trained although regression in a new home is common. He lounges in a playpen when his foster mom must leave during the day. At night, he has been sleeping in a bassinet of sorts right by foster mom‘s bed (yes this boy has been spoiled🤭). He is still gaining strength in his left rear leg and his balance can be off at times, but he is growing stronger every day. For this reason, only children 12+ will be considered in his forever home.

Kash is neutered and is up-to-date on vaccines and preventatives. He walks well on a leash and travels beautifully in the car. His forever family could have a young playful dog, or he could be your one and only. Most important is that his forever family have plenty of time to shower him with love and attention which he absolutely deserves. This boy’s favorite place is your lap❤️

Kash is being fostered in Collegeville, Montgomery County and his new family should be prepared to travel there for the adoption. A home visit and meet and greet with all family members is part of the process. Kash Monee Mernar was named after the late Linda Mernar who was a beloved supporter of Zoe’s House. We know she will be Kash’s forever guardian angel 🪽 If you think you can provide this sweet boy with his best home, then apply at www.zoeshouserescue.com.

Why story by a foster family

💖 Frances: From Forgotten to Forever Loved 💖

(Told in Frances’s own words)

For five long years, my world was a barn stall. My job was to have puppies—lots of them. I was good at it, they said. I never got to play fetch, go for a walk, or know what a warm bed felt like. I passed the time chewing on the wood walls and caring for my babies until they were taken away. My teeth are worn down to nubs, and my coat had turned thin and brittle from the years of neglect. But even then, I always wagged my tail when someone came near. I’ve always loved people… even when life didn’t love me back.

When Zoe’s House Rescue came for me and my son Johnny, I didn’t know it yet, but everything was about to change. My foster mom gave us baths, soft beds, and most importantly—love. She told me I was beautiful, even though I didn’t quite believe it at first. Johnny found his forever family quickly, but I stayed a while longer. Maybe my heart needed more time to heal.

When I had my spay surgery, they found a mammary tumor—it turned out to be cancer. My foster mom cried, but she never gave up on me. She told me that even if my time was shorter, it was finally going to be sweet.

And it has been. I’ve learned what walks are, discovered the joy of soft toys, and now I greet every person and dog with my gentle poodle charm. I sit patiently, waiting for pets and smiles, because that’s what I was always meant for—to love and be loved.

This week, I’ll be leaving for my forever home. My new family knows my story, knows about my cancer, and still chose me. They say they can’t wait to spoil me with spa days, cozy beds, healthy meals, and endless affection.

For the first time in my life, I’m not someone’s breeding dog—I’m someone’s beloved dog.

Because of Zoe’s House, I got a second chance at life. And that’s what your donations make possible. Every dollar means another dog like me gets to trade a cold barn stall for a warm, loving home.
