Rescue FAQs

We are 501 (c) 3 nonprofit, foster home based rescue located in Maine . We are dedicated to saving lives and finding forever homes for stray, abandoned and surrendered dogs, most of which are in high kill shelters. Our goal is to rescue for life and if any of our rescued dogs cannot stay with their adoptive family, the adopter must contact the adoption coordinator at Almost Home Rescue first before going to the shelter or attempting re-homing. Most of AHR’s dogs have come from overcrowded shelters in the southeast United States; however, we also take dogs from local shelters, veterinarians, and other situations that require rescue. All of our imported dogs arrive with a current Health Certificate, meet Maine state import and vaccination requirements, are wormed, micro-chipped.
