Story

TESSI — SEEKING PERMANENT COMMAND POST & QUALIFIED HUMAN STAFFMy name is Tessi. I’m a young, medium-sized Shepherd mix, and I am currently accepting applications for the position of “My Humans”.A little about my background: I was discovered in Mississippi operating with an unaffiliated pack of dogs. The exact nature of our organization remains classified, and on advice of counsel I decline to discuss my activities prior to being rescued by Almost Home Foundation. Suffice it to say, I have left that life behind and am now seeking a permanent duty station.PERSONNEL FILE: I love people. Seriously. Love them. I am extraordinarily affectionate and believe the human lap is one of civilization’s greatest achievements. Given the opportunity, I will remain there indefinitely. I become very attached to my people, although, much like the Declaration of Independence, I am working on the whole independence thing. Progress has been made. Further negotiations are ongoing.I am housebroken, which I believe should be entered into evidence as Exhibit A, demonstrating that I am a civilized young lady. I also do not beg for food. I recognize and respect established rules of engagement regarding the dinner table. I am also crate trained. Counsel has instructed me to acknowledge this fact. Counsel has not instructed me to pretend I enjoy it. I comply under protest and reserve all rights and remedies available to me.A fenced yard is not required. Frankly, I have more important things to do. I enjoy walks, perimeter security, reconnaissance, neighborhood intelligence gathering, and the occasional tactical inspection of suspicious shrubbery. No squirrel activity within my assigned sector shall go undocumented.My ideal humans will understand that beneath this highly trained exterior is an affectionate girl who really just wants to belong somewhere. I’ve already had the adventure. I’ve run with the pack. I’ve been rescued. Now I’m looking for the last assignment I’ll ever need:A home.In return, I offer loyalty, affection, companionship, excellent household discipline, unlimited lap-warming services, and a highly motivated security officer willing to conduct perimeter checks without overtime compensation.So, if you’re looking for a young Shepherd mix with a big heart, excellent credentials, and just enough separation anxiety to make you feel extremely important, I’m Tessi.Applications for permanent human status are now being accepted through Almost Home Foundation.Equal Opportunity Household. Treats negotiable. Belly rubs mandatory. Terms and conditions apply.Adoption fee is $360Email: dogs@almosthomefoundation.orgAlmost Home Foundation`s adoption requirements:(1) Be at least 21 years of age;(2) Have the consent of all adults living in the household;(3) Have approval from the residence owner;(4) Have valid ID with current address;(5) Be approved by Almost Home Foundation as a suitable adoptive home; and(6) Live in the suburbs surrounding Schaumburg (Illinois Residents only)*** Please note that Almost Home Foundation accepts only cash, Zelle, or checks for adoption fees; we do not accept debit or credit cards. ***

Story

Hi, I’m Savannah — beauty, brains, and a whole lot of personality. I’m a Shepherd mix who absolutely adores people and LOVES having something to do. If you’re looking for a dog who can be your best friend and your training buddy, I might just be your girl.I’m already nailing sit, down, place, and stay, and it really doesn’t take me long to figure out what you’re asking. I’m smart, eager to learn, and I genuinely enjoy working with my humans.Because of my Shepherd side, I’m definitely looking for someone who wants to keep both my brain and my body busy. Training, adventures, enrichment, long walks, learning new things — give me a job and I’m in.But don’t let all this talk about my impressive résumé fool you… I’m also a total goofball.I have some of the BEST zoomies, and apparently slippery floors are supposed to slow dogs down. I disagree. My legs may be going 100 mph while my body goes approximately three inches, but I remain fully committed to the mission. So if you’re looking for a girl who is smart, gorgeous, goofy, people-loving, and always ready for whatever comes next…I’m Savannah. And I’m ready to meet you.

Please contact Echo Dogs (adoptions@echodogs.org) for more information about this pet.Male - 2 year - 65 lbs - Microchipped - Neutered - OHBIO Hello! My name is Jace. I am house trained and crate-trained. I am currently crated when I am left home alone. I am a sweet boy with my foster parents, though it took me a while to warm up to them. I’ve spent most of my life in a kennel environment so living in a home with people was a new experience for me and I am very shy with new people. I have started seeking affection and enjoying pets from my foster parents and discovering how great it can be! I’ll need a patient, calm adopter to help me grow more comfortable around people.I love other animals and will require a confident canine sibling in my home to help show me the ropes. I have been around cats without issue so I could have kitty siblings as well. I love toys and bones. Any kind of stuffy toy that I can gently carry around is great. I also play tug with other dogs with a rope.I ride well in the car and only pull slightly on lead. I take food gently and would love a family who will continue my socialization so that I can grow into my most confident self. I have been learning to come to my foster parents when they call my name and know what it means to hear “time for bed”. I am a sweet boy who is ready to find my perfect adoptive family, could that be with you? Follow me on Facebook: #EchoDogJace2025 For more information, please contact adoptions@echodogs.org.

Story

Male - 5 years - 40 lbs - Microchipped - Neutered - NYHi, I’m Ricardo. I’m a 5-year-old, 40 lb neutered male. I am already housetrained and crate-trained. I use my crate as a safe space mostly; I do not need to be shut in my crate when I am left home alone. I have coexisted well with adults, with a preference for women, though I am very shy and don’t seek much interaction. I will accept calm affection from my foster mom. Most of the time I am happy to people watch from afar. I will need someone willing to be patient as I come around to them and my surroundings in my new home; I had had no or minimal human contact prior to coming to Echo Dogs so this human world is all new to me and I have been trying hard to learn! I love having the company of other dogs and will require at least one confident canine companion to help guide me. I am wonderful about adjusting my play style to match that of the dog I am playing with and all around have good canine social skills. I am also gentle around cats and wouldn’t mind having feline siblings. I have been learning about these things called toys and they’re pretty fun! I especially like the plushy toys and benebones. I have been working hard on leash skills and can now join on quiet outings! I may get nervous at times and need gentle encouragement. I am still pretty uncomfortable with car rides so that is also a work in progress. I have learned to reliably come to my foster mom when she calls me. I currently take clomicalm to help me manage my anxiety. I am a gentle-natured boy who is ready to find a patient human ready to help me continue navigating this human world—could you be my human(s)?

Please contact Echo Dogs (adoptions@echodogs.org) for more information about this pet.Male • 2 Years • 50 lbs. • Microchipped • Neutered • TXBIO Hello! My name is Yukon. You can call me Yuki if you like. I am house trained and crate trained. I should be crated when you cannot supervise me. I am still learning. I am very good in my crate. I even share my crate with my cat friend. I have just completed heartworm treatment, and I am ready to find my family. I love meeting people and getting all the attention and petting I can. I love being close to my people. I am not shy so I will snuggle up to you for some cuddling.I have met other dogs of different sizes, and I am always friendly when greeting them. I live with a young female dog here at my foster home and we play together and run around the backyard. I also live with cats and do very well with them. I am learning commands. I walk well on a leash. I do pull a little if I see a squirrel but, hey, who doesn’t. I like playing with toys, especially my Starmark ball and chew toys. I know how to play fetch. I am good in the car. I would like to find a home with a fenced yard; I absolutely love to run around. A home with a young playful female dog would be best. An active family that likes to go places, hiking and exploring. Someone who will continue teaching me how to become the best boy I can be. Could that be you?

Story

Female - 3.5 years - 60 lbs - Microchipped - Spayed - DEHi! My name is Vaquita and I am a 3.5-year-old, 60 lb spayed female. I am already housetrained and crate-trained. I can be left home alone uncrated, though I like to have a crate available to me as a safe space for when I become overwhelmed. I have done well with men, women, and older children with proper introductions. I prefer to meet people at my home, where I have been known to jump into the laps of new friends when they sit on our couch! I love to receive pets, cuddles, and to give kisses to my people; I am overall a super affectionate girl! I love toys, especially balls or rope toys, and am never far away from some kind of toy! I would love a family where I get daily play. I can easily clear a short fence so I either need a yard with a secure, tall fence or no fence where I’ll receive exclusively on-leash exercise. I have unfortunately not done well with other dogs and will need to be the only pet in my home. I show reactivity through barking and lunging when I see dogs from a distance. When I have been introduced to other dogs, I have postured and lunged even with proper introductions. I ride well in the car and would love to find a family dedicated to providing continued training so I could join you for adventures! My leash skills are a work in progress (although maybe I’d be a candidate for the Iditarod?), but I have learned how to sit, come, and roll over. I have also learned how to allow you to dry off my paws when they get muddy! Nail trims are a bit of a different story. I am a happy, smart girl who is ready to find my perfect adoptive family—are you my family? Follow me on Facebook: #EchoDogVaquita For more information, please contact adoptions@echodogs.org.
