Meet Twinkie!
Twinkie is a fun and sweet girl looking for a loving friend. She is a young 9 year old Shiba Inu/Pomeranian/Terrier Mix. Do you love to take walks outside? Love to be snuggled and kissed? Do you own a couch? Then Twinkie might be right for you! Twinkie prefers to be the apple of your eye but can learn to get along with other dogs and cats. She is a bit of a princess and if annoyed might give you a look or sound to respect her personal space. She is excellent on her leash and loves meeting new people. She is potty trained and enjoys being let out often to see what's happening in the world. Twinkie would love to meet you and see if you are worthy of her affection!
Thank you for your interest in adopting! Please fill out an application on our website at www.ajourneyhomedogrescue.org .
A Journey Home is a 501c3, all foster/volunteer based rescue. Our rescues are living with families in their homes. We do not have a shelter.
If you are interested in adopting, visit our website www.ajourneyhomedogrescue.org to fill out an application. After your application has been received and given a preliminary approval, you will be contacted by an adoption coordinator who will conduct a phone interview. Final approval will be granted following a successful meet and greet with the entire family. Adopter must be at least 21 yrs old.
A Journey Home does not do out-of-state adoptions on unaltered puppies. Spay/neuter surgery is not done on puppies under 6 months of age. If adopting a puppy under the age of 6 months, we require that the adopter schedules the spay/neuter at our participating vet clinic when age appropriate.
Our standard adoption fee is $300, payable by cash or check. The fee includes spay/neuter, age appropriate vaccinations, fecal testing, deworming, flea and tick preventative, a free vet visit at one of our participating clinics, and micro-chipping.
First time pet owners will be required to sign up for a puppy/training class at a place of their choice. There will be an additional $100 added to your adoption fee, which will be refunded to you upon proof the class was completed.
Please note that breed and size are our best guesses, while ages are estimated by our vets and are not guaranteed.

PLEASE consider becoming a foster home, and find out how rewarding it can be! A Journey Home provides basic needs, including medical expenses at our participating clinics located in Wheaton, Naperville, and Geneva. You supply the love! High kill shelters are overcrowded with dogs and puppies that need our help. More fosters on our team means we can save more lives!
