Posted Breed: Shepherd / Mixed. Thelma is a smart, girl who’s about 8-9 years old and tips the scales at about 52 lbs. ... and she's looking for her “special someone!” Here's what Thelma’s foster mom told us about her: "Thelma is very food-motivated, so training classes with her have been a real joy — in fact, she recently graduated from Lisa Berkenstock's Pet Dog Manners class in Horsham. There was just one catch: For weeks, I tried to teach her the ‘Down’ cue, and nothing seemed to be working ... until we discovered the magic of CheezIts! Then she learned ‘Down’ in about 10 minutes using them as her reward! :-D She’s completely housetrained and crate-trained, too." "Thelma likes to stick close to her ‘person’; she sleeps in bed with me and follows me around the house. If given the chance, she will try to squeeze through the front door ahead of you, so it’s best to be cautious when coming or going. She also has a rather unusual hobby: She likes to watch other cats and dogs on television and in YouTube videos! (Check out the photo of Thelma gazing raptly at kitty videos :-) It all started with the Westminster Dog Show, when she was captivated by all of the dogs prancing around the show ring. It’s amazing — she will sit and watch for more than 30 minutes and still expect to see more!" Thelma likes to take her time getting to know people, and is sometimes easily startled, so her ideal owner will be someone who’s quiet and patient, and will give her the time and space she needs to feel comfortable. She would do best in a home that has a fenced yard for exercise, and we think she'd be happiest as an only dog. No cats for Thelma, either — those fast-moving fluffy things are just too, too tempting! — and fast-moving little kids are a bit much for her as well. Her ideal home would be with a quiet, single woman or a couple; older, dog-savvy kids may okay, too. But whomever her special someone turns out to be, we know Thelma will be a great companion ... maybe your companion? Want to learn more? Please e-mail us at AlmostHome4Dogs@yahoo.com or stop by an upcoming Meet & Greet to find out if Thelma is the right girl for you!

Posted Breed: Terrier / Boxer / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: $300. Daisy is in need of a foster home or can be adopted through our foster to adopt program. Daisy is a love! She is housetrained, crate trained, walks well on a leash and takes treats very gently. She is smart, gentle and very trainable. She is medium energy and will settle after a quick walk around the block or is up for a long hike - she's flexible like that! She loves nothing more than to cuddle on the couch next to you. She is shy with strangers at first but once she realizes they won't harm her she warms up quickly. She is an incredible companion dog and has stolen our hearts! Daisy would prefer to be the only pet in the house. Daisy is about 2 years old and 48 lbs. Please stop by an upcoming Meet & Greet to find out if Daisy is the right one for you!

Posted Breed: Labrador Retriever / Mixed. Tortie's foster mom just adores her ... as you can tell from the way she writes about her :-) "This pup has personality plus! She gets along great with my male and female dogs, but her ideal companion would be a mellow guy who doesn't mind a little sister who steals his toys. Tortie rings the bells on the door when she has to go out, and she just loves to be in the yard (she's a great gardening buddy!), so a home with a physical fence would be ideal for her." "Best of all, Tortie is SO smart! She is very treat-motivated and quickly learns anything you want to teach her; she would love a family who will take her to classes to learn even more. She is crate-trained, but rarely needs to be in her crate anymore because she's so well-behaved. I have to admit, this is one foster dog that I would keep if I could — she's just that wonderful!" Now 5 years old and weighing in at 56 lbs., this happy, playful girl is spayed, microchipped and eager to meet her new family — could it be yours? Please stop by an upcoming Meet & Greet to find out if Tortie is the right pet for you! (Local adoptions preferred — Philadelphia and tri-state area [South Jersey and northern Delaware] only.)

Posted Breed: Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: $300. "Available for adoption is the sweetest 2-year old pitbull (about 47 lbs). Frankie loves to give affection, and we’d bet she’s the best snuggler in Philadelphia. She’s incredibly smart and willing to please her owners. Frankie was a stray who we found in Chester, PA. We brought her to the vet, who gave her the necessary shots, as well as a flea bath. Since then, she has been living with us and is so incredibly sweet. She was spayed in mid February and is now fully healed. Frankie is a true companion dog, who always looks to stay by your side and loves to be pet. She’s fully potty-trained and knows basic commands like sit exceptionally well. She’s well behaved around strangers but does not get along with other dogs. She's looking for a home with older children because of her strength and excitability. " Please email us at AlmostHome4Dogs@yahoo.com to find out if Frankie is the right one for you!

Posted Breed: Plott Hound / Boxer / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: $300. Riley is a sweet and gentle, wiggly 7 year old hound, boxer mix who loves to run and sunbathe in the warmer months. She is about 50 lbs and can really eat despite her slender look! Riley is super soft, especially her ears and has a beautiful brindle coat. Beware of her tail - it's pretty fierce when she's excited! She loves treats, peanut butter filled Kongs, Nyla bones, obeying commands, nice walks, activities outdoors. She is great in the car too so take her along with you on your adventures!

Posted Breed: Boxer / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 300. "Pick me! Pick me!" Cindy is all eager smiles, tail wags and wiggly-jiggly dance moves when she sees folks coming her way along the kennel run. She tries so very hard to make sure you notice her — this super-friendly pup doesn't want to be lost in the crowd! And frankly, not only does this 9 year old charmer NOT get lost in the crowd, she's sure to stand out! Sporting a lovely deep brindle jacket and a broad, warm smile, sweet Cindy is a bubbly, engaging lady ready to steal your heart. She's always eager to climb into your lap or show off her oh-so-pettable belly as she rolls with delight in the grass. Here's what her temporary foster mom down south told us about her: "Cindy is absolutely loving with every human she's met. She's a little TOO interested in cats, however, so a cat-free home would be best for Cindy." Cindy's foster mom told us she's doing wonderfully there, too: "Cindy loves, loves, loves to be around people! She is a gentle, sweet girl who walks very nicely on the leash. Her idea of heaven would be a home where someone is around the house most of the day, as she's not fond of being crated or otherwise contained ... and she loves having 'people company' more than anything. She's an eager-to-please girl who is great with kids, housetrained, laid-back and mellow." Cindy is dog-selective. She's fine with the foster's other dog but has issues with some others so she would do best as an only dog. Want to learn more? Please e-mail us or stop by an upcoming Meet & Greet to find out if Cindy is the right canine for you!
