Story
Hello, my name is Tuffy, but I’m not tuff at all. Happy, with a wagging tail, is my way of showing affection. I’m a little shy at first, but with patience and time I warm up; I give kisses and enjoy being petted. I love to play with toys, and chew on Nyla-bones! I’m 12 years old and very healthy. I love to curl up on my dog bed, near you, and take my naps. I get along fine with my foster-dog siblings. I guess I would say I’m the perfect dog for someone wanting an easy-going, low-maintenance companion. If you are interested in meeting me, log on to www.foster2home.org, fill out an application and someone will contact you.

Story
I was abandoned by my family in Alabama, but was rescued by Almost Home Foundation. I am now in a foster home with another dog. We get along well but I would be happier as an only dog. I enjoy my people. I enjoy my daily walks, yard, and sleeping on the couch. Due to my previous experience, I do have some separation anxiety. I would appreciate a family that is home often.. Just looking for my furever home. Come and meet me at the next adoption show.This is a Pay It Forward dog.
