Story
Prince was born in the Fall of 2022 and adopted from McKamey at around six months. He has a doggie friend with whom he lives and plays and also lives with a cat that he tolerates. He loves being outside but is known to get out of the fenced area when left unsupervised. He's a very sweet boy. I moved away over a year ago and he has been under the care of my house sitter but I am about to lose the property where he has been staying. He has an allergy to fleas and the topical flea treatments don't seem effective so he is bathed often with Dawn soap and uses a Soresto collar.

Story
Almost Home believes that every animal deserves a loving home regardless of appearance, age, or physical limitation.  We have come together to give animals in need the safe and happy life they all deserve.  Almost Home Animal Rescue believes that no animal is expendable.  Adopting a friend:The animals, lucky enough to find refuge with Almost Home, are all in loving foster homes. If you are interested in the possibility of giving one of the animals a new lease on life, please contact us. The contact information is listed at the end of each biography.  What you need to do to adopt:If you would like to adopt a pet in need from Almost Home, basically, an application must be filled out. We will check two personal references and a vet reference. If you are approved for adoption, there is a trial period of about one week to make sure this is the animal for you and you are the person for the animal. Along with the trial period, a contract must be signed that basically states that if ever you cannot keep the animal that you must return the animal to Almost Home. Last but not least, a home check will be done. Meet & Greets:An approved application is required. This does not mean that you have to adopt but that you are approved to do so if everything works out. Since we are foster based, this limits the amount of people coming to our homes.  *Due to rescuer being very ill, all her dogs are in desperate need!!! Greetings! I'm Fluffy! My best friend, Poe, and I were allowed to wander the streets. Our owner just didn't care. I was pregnant at the time. Our rescuer begged for me to be able to come into rescue. So, our owner dumped me and unexpectedly and luckily dumped Poe too! I am a very pretty girl that is about three to four years old. I am mostly fluff and I weigh around eighty pounds.We are the friendliest duo and are exceptionally loving! We adore people and other doggies. We do love children but I can get excitable, so small children may get overwhelmed. We are true buddies. You will always find us hanging out together. We enjoy adventures and would follow you to the ends of the earth. All you have to do is make us yours! Love,Fluffy & Poe *Guest Posting**Discount for two!***Adoption Fee $275 for both If you would like to meet your new best friend, contact the Adoption Coordinator at info@almosthometn.org or 865-236-0830. To fill out an application, go to www.almosthometn.org. If you can't get it to work, tell us and we will email it to you.ADOPTION FEE: The adoption fee for a cat is $85. The adoption fee for a kitten is $100. The adoption fee does include the kittens being fixed and their rabies shot when they are old enough through one of our local vets. The adoption fee for a dog is $200. The adoption fee for a puppy is $250. The adoption fee does include the puppies being fixed and their rabies shot when they are old enough through one of our local vets. Mature pet adoption fees are sometimes reduced. The adoption fee for pure bred dogs and cats will vary due to health and age of pet. This helps support our ill animals and our mutts that get left in the system longer. We do reserve the right to change the fees higher or lower due to the circumstance of the animal but what was stated above are the usual adoption fees.  Microchipped pets will have a higher adoption fee.  Our adoption fees do not cover the cost of the vetting and care the animal has received with us and if it ever does, the money just goes back it to helping other animals in need. November 1, 2024, 8:13 pm

Story
Chattanooga adopters: meet and greets will be held on December 16. Non-local adopters: transport is available on December 19. Elphaba has a personality that’s bigger than life and impossible not to love. She’s sweet, active, goofy, and endlessly playful, bringing joy and entertainment into every room she enters. Her lively spirit is matched by her sharp mind, and she picks up on new things quickly, always eager to explore and learn. With her mix of smarts, silliness, and sweetness, Elphaba is the kind of pup who makes every day brighter. She would thrive in an active home that enjoys a fun, clever companion who loves to play hard, cuddle close, and keep her people laughing. Currently in a foster home in Chattanooga, TN, and available for transport to most locations within the continental United States.

Story
Chattanooga adopters: meet and greets will be held on December 16. Non-local adopters: transport is available on December 19. Glinda is a gentle, reserved pup who takes a moment to assess her surroundings, but once she feels safe, her sweet personality shines. She warms up quickly and becomes a devoted cuddle bug who prefers to stay within a foot of her foster mama at all times. She enjoys playtime and can be quite spirited, but she’s just as happy to settle in for a cozy snuggle on the couch. Glinda would thrive in a calm, loving home that appreciates a tender companion who bonds deeply and loves both gentle play and quiet, comforting moments. Currently in a foster home in Chattanooga, TN, and available for transport to most locations within the continental United States. Please note: We are unable to adopt to residents of Massachusetts at this time. To apply, complete our official adoption application at yourlocalfurmama.com/adoption-application.

Story
Please contact Adoptions (adoptions@thalppc.com) for more information about this pet. Nakoa is a 1 year old true mix that weighs 46 pounds. We did a DNA test through Wisdom Panel and were completely suprised at his results. He is 25% Great Pyranees, 12% Australian Cattle Dog, 11% German Shepherd, 9% Anatolian Shepherd, and 8% Labrador Retriever.His name is Native American for 'brave and courageous warrior' and he is exactly that! Nakoa was rescued by our friends at Perry's Promise after her showed up with an injured leg that had a wound on his foot with exposed bone. He had total nerve damage and needed a full amputation. He spent several weeks in a foster home to recover from surgery but is now at the shelter enjoying his time with the other office dogs Almond Joy, Zyla, and Skyy. Here is what Nakoa has to say about himself:)Hi! I'm Nakoa!I am the cutest tripod you'll ever meet! The first year of my life has been rough so along with my tripod status, I'm still learning how to be a dog. I'm still pretty nervous around humans, but after weeks in a foster home and hanging out at PPC I'm relaxing. I have learned lots but I've still got lots more to learn!I had to learn how to walk again and I wasn't very motivated to move around much after my surgery, but once I met other dogs, I decided keeping up with them was worth moving around for. Other dogs have helped me open up and made me less nervous about being left alone, and my foster mom thinks a forever home with another dog or dogs would be perfect for me. I learned I like toys but I’m still not sure how to use them. I can entertain myself well with Kong-type toys or chew bones and I like to toss balls and stuffies to myself, but I haven’t figured out how to chase after a toy if it’s thrown for me. I think with some practice though I’ll get the hang of it.I’ve learned what furniture is and I like it because it means I can lay with my human. The big bed is my favorite. I didn't know about all the sounds human toys make, and I’ve gotten used to lots of them, but I will probably still come across new sounds that make me jumpy. I prefer the vacuum over the dishwasher.I’ve learned one of my favorite things to do is play in the yard! I like running after you, then I’ll slide through the yard on my tummy before I flop over and roll around on my back. And I know I LOVE love! Once I got used to my foster mom I would lay my head on her hand when I wanted pets. I liked rubbing my head on her while she laughed at my goofiness, and laying together in the big bed was lots of fun. I’ve come a long way with house training and I need more exposure to walking on a leash. I’ve also been working on my separation anxiety and hanging out at PPC has helped me lots.I have learned lots but I've still got lots more to learn! The amount of progress I've made is impressive, but I need a family that understands a new environment will make me reserved and timid at first. I need a family to have patience and give me time to show them what a loving and playful pup I will be once I know they're my family.    The adoption fee is $135 which includes a free veterinary exam within 2 weeks of adoption at local participating vets, up to date vaccinations, test for heartworms & heartworm preventative medication, dewormer, flea preventative, microchip, & spay or neuter.We're open Wednesday - Sunday 12 - 5 p.m but doing adoptions and meet & greets by appointment only.  If you are seriously interested in adopting please fill our our online application here: https://bit.ly/3HN4Tqq Check out our website at https://www.petplacementcenter.com/    February 10, 2025, 8:52 am
