Smith was sadly hit by a tractor trailer leaving him paralyzed from the waist down and his family surrendered him at the hospital.


He is able to defecate on his own but requires some assistance with emptying his bladder.


He is a sweet lovable boy and still races around in his wheel chair. He loves everybody and has tons of love to give. His happy go lucky demeanor would make him a fabulous therapy dog. He does not allow his handicapability to dampen his spirits and is an inspiration to all who meet him.

Looking for a foster and / or adopter.

Gunner is a 5 year old scruffy terrier / hound mix who weighs just under 50 lbs.&nbsp; Gunner landed in the shelter after having a home so he already has the hang of a number of things,&nbsp; Sadly, his owner fell ill and had to be hospitalized indefinitely.&nbsp;

Gunner enjoys riding in the car and going for walks!&nbsp; He likes to follow his nose so he pulls some with just a collar, but is quite manageable with a chest-leading harness.&nbsp; &nbsp;This guy does not like crates but that is not an issue because he is already house trained.&nbsp; Gunner is comfortable in a home and has no issues exploring all floors of the house, so steps are not a problem.&nbsp; He is a cuddly guy who enjoys a dog bed and the opportunity to cuddle with people on the couch,

Gunner was an only dog but has been friendly to other dogs in the shelter and foster home.&nbsp; He could go with or without a dog companion. We do not have information on Gunner and cats. We would recommend Gunner be in a home more on the quiet side since that&#39;s what he was used to (no little kiddos)&nbsp;

If you are interested in this adorable scruffy guy, pleases email us at AlmostHome4Dogs@yahoo.com.&nbsp;

Haven is an adorable&nbsp;&nbsp;chihuahua/min pin mix.&nbsp;

She is estimated to be 5 to 6 years old and 10 pounds, but no one gave her that memo.

&nbsp;

Haven is the perfect mix of playful and cuddly and seems to love everyone she meets. She will be a great companion as an only dog or with another playful pup. Haven has been fine with the cats in her foster home. Haven is ready to find her new snuggle buddy.&nbsp;

Good things don&#39;t ALWAYS come in small packages. Meet Odie, a 69 pound yellow lab/ hound mix who sports white leggings and an ever-wagging tail. Just like Garfield&#39;s doggy buddy in the comic strip, this Odie is super loveable, good natured, friendly, silly, loyal, fun-loving, and sometimes a bit goofy. At just shy of 2 years old, he is quite an athlete--is that Odie standing on top to the picnic table?? In his quieter moments, Odie is a sun-worshipper who enjoys bird and squirrel watching while relaxing outside and TRIES to be a lap dog inside. 

Having him close by in the yard helps his foster mom&#39;s weeding chores seem pleasant--well, almost! 

His foster family laughs when Odie is in the kitchen and he stares out the window--they just aren&#39;t quite sure what is grabbing his attention! Odie is house-and crate-trained, micro-chipped, neutered, and up-to-date on all his vaccinations. He gets along with all the other dogs who live with his foster family--especially the other foster dog Danny who is a favorite playmate. Odie&#39;s bags are packed (yep--with an Eagles logo) and he is ready to settle in with a forever family who can&#39;t wait to spend fall with a new buddy.

Neil is a stunningly handsome lovebug! He is around 3-5 years and 57lbs. Neil is likely a terrier mix.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Neil&#39;s number one love is getting pets and affection from his people! He is a big mush who is eager to get attention and sit with you on the couch. He does still have a playful side and enjoys a good zoom around the yard a few times a day. Neil has been great with a variety of other dogs, both in the shelter and in his foster home. We do not have information on Neil with cats or really young kiddos.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

This very handsome guy is pretty much house and crate trained. He just needed a short refresher on the potty training after spending time in the shelter. He has been very good for a nail trim and bath given by his foster mom. Neil would love a forever home where someone is around a good bit. A fenced in yard would also be great for Neil&#39;s zoomies.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

If you are interested in Neil please email us at almosthome4dogs@yahoo.com!&nbsp;
