My story

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

Sienna is 6 yrs old

Please meet Sienna! Sienna is learning how to be a dog by total immersion. Everything is new to her right now, and she’s doing great. Just this week she started playing more with toys, including the ones her foster mom’s granddaughter brought over. Recently she cuddled for 15 minutes on a lap and even asked for pets on her own!

Sienna has also just started taking treats offered by hand. Trust is still something she’s learning, but she really wants to achieve it, and she’s making steady progress every day. Because everything is so new to her and she hasn’t been at her foster’s long, Sienna can be a bit timid. Her behavior when meeting new people is to walk away, but then observe from a safe distance. Even though she can be hesitant at first, she was willing to be petted by an 8-year-old who came to visit.

Outside, she likes to explore first and is willing to walk on a leash to potty. Actually, Sienna loves going for walks around the neighborhood, and she knows to lie down when the leash is being put on. Sienna is described as incredibly sweet. Everyone she meets just wants to show her some love. All these behaviors are amazing for a dog just learning everything, including trust.

She wants you to know that she’s making good use of the time learning the joys of love from her foster family and also mastering new commands and fun activities.Sienna is just waiting for someone to come and bring her to her loving, forever home.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs please go directly to www.almosthomeohio.org for an application. Once the application is submitted, our adoption team can discuss the information on the application with you to determine if one of our dogs would be a good fit for your home. Lastly, a home visit will be done either by one of our volunteers or another reputable rescue volunteer in your area. We do adopt out of state, but it is up to the adopter to come meet and take the dog home. Sound like a lot to go through for a dog? It really isn't as complicated as it seems and it's the best way to ensure a good match. Please contact adoptions@almosthomeohio.org with any additional questions you may have after reviewing the information on our website.

More about this rescue

Almost Home Dog Rescue of Ohio is made up of a small (but growing) group of enthusiastic volunteers who want to make a difference in the lives of homeless dogs. Our background is with purebred collies and collie mixes but on occasion, we have other "family friendly" breeds. If you are searching for a collie, we'd like to help you find a wonderful companion that fits your family's lifestyle. All of our dogs are fully vaccinated and are spayed/neutered prior to adoption. They have also been tested and are negative for heartworm and are on heartworm preventative.
