We are a “No Kill” Rescue. This simply means that we will endeavor to find a home for our animals that are adoptable. When there is an animal that is seriously ill or very aggressive toward humans, we will have euthanasia performed in a humane way. Every animal is given a chance. No healthy and adoptable animal will be euthanized.
Our Rescued dogs and puppies are tested for Heartworm, vaccinated with Rabies and Parvo/Distemper, spayed/neutered and microchipped before being placed in loving homes. They are also checked for fleas and treated with either Advantage, Revolution or Frontline when necessary. In addition, our canines are checked for internal parasites and worms! About 10 million "excess" dogs and cats will be killed in shelters this year, while millions of homeless animals live short, hard, hungry lives on the streets, only to die miserably from disease, injury, or predation. By being a responsible caregiver and sterilizing your companion animals, you avoid contributing to this terrible problem of pet overpopulation. Our 5-year goal is to have a shelter. This is an aggressive goal that will take many donations and memberships. We will strive for this goal with a great team of volunteers and help from people like you! Please become a member, become a sponsor or make a donation.
Our animals are found strayed and brought in from the police. After being held for 7 days, we evaluate the temperament of the animal and determine if the animal is suitable to be a pet. On rare occasion, we will also rescue animals that are in desperate situations where the rescue makes the difference between life and death. Close

We have aggressive goals to make Almost Home Foundation a unique and successful organization.
Our mission is to:
To save adoptable dogs and cats from being destroyed by finding permanent, loving homes
To educate the public on the importance of spay/neutering their pets to reduce the surplus of unwanted animals
To promote training to help the family and animal to live together
To network with other organizations so that together we can make a larger impact on saving animals.
To work with municipalities to ensure stray dogs are scanned for microchips and given to rescues if not claimed by owners.
To inform the public on responsible pet ownership.
To advocate for the animals to ensure that no breed specific legislation is enacted and that these animals are always treated in a humane way.
No animal that threatens the safety and welfare of anyone will knowingly be deemed adoptable.
