Story
Meet Tara! She is around 2 years old and is a Bully mix with the cutest ears. She came to us from the pound after she was dumped in the country with 2 other dogs. She can be a little shy at first when you first meet her, but it doesn’t take her long to warm up. She is easily bribed with some treats. She has been good with other dogs, but we are not sure at this time how she is with cats and kids. She is current on vaccines, negative for heartworm, and microchipped

Story
Meet Rocco. This handsome and goody boy is around 6 months old and came to us when his owner could no longer care for him. We were told he is a Pitbull/Heeler mix. He is a very active boy and a big boy that doesnt always know his size. He does need some work in the basic obedience department. He is very treat motivated, so that should help with training. He has been great with other dogs. He is very curious of cats and may be a little too much for them right now. He would also do best in a home with no young kids at this time. This boy loves to play with toys and just all around loves being with his humans. He does have a little bit of separation anxiety that will need to be worked on as he wants to always be with his humans. He is neutered, current on vaccines and microchipped

Story
Meet Draco! This handsome boy is around 4 years old and is a Pit/Heeler nix. He came to us as an owner surrender due to needing a new home with no young kids. He is fine with older kids, but young ones make him too nervous. He is good with other dogs, but we are unsure how he is with cats. He is very friendly and has been happy as can be here at the shelter. He is a pretty active guy and would love a home that will take him on walks or hikes.

Story
Hi my name is Firu. I am 4 years old and the staff here thinks I am an American Bulldog/Boxer mix. I came to Almost Home when my owner was moving and could not take me with. I did live with another dog in my previous home and have been good with other dogs here at the shelter. I have not been around cats or kids. I am VERY treat motivated and I am a very quick learner. I am neutered, current on vaccines, negative for heartworm, and microchipped.
