CANE - WHERE ARE YOU??? - CORGI / CHIHUAHUA / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Corgi / Chihuahua / Mixed (short coat). 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. Hi… my name is Cane. I’m just a puppy—five months old and about 22 pounds—but I’ve already seen and felt things that hurt in ways I don’t really understand. I used to have a sibling. We’d play all day, curl up at night with our mom, Creek, and I thought the world was safe. But one day, my sibling was just… gone. I saw my mom cry without tears. She curled herself around me tighter than ever, like she was trying to keep my heart from breaking too. I try to be brave, but sometimes the sadness leaks out of me in the form of tears. Real tears. I cry because I don’t understand why I don’t have a family, why no one has come to scoop me up, hold me tight, and whisper, “You’re safe now.” I’m a sweet boy who loves with his whole little heart. I’m housebroken, I do great on a leash, and I get along with other dogs and cats too. I just want a soft bed, gentle hands, and someone to tell me I’ll never have to cry myself to sleep again. You can take me home on my own, or you can take both me and my mom, Creek, together. There’s even a special adoption discount if we go as a pair. But no matter what, all I really want is love. Please don’t let me grow up behind these bars. Please don’t let my tears go unseen. I’m Cane, and I’m waiting for my forever family to finally find me. Love, Cane *Guest Posting* *Discount for both!* *You can foster to adopt, foster or adopt!* If you would like to meet your new best friend, contact the Adoption Coordinator at infoalmosthometn or 865-236-0830. To fill out an application, go to .almosthometn. If you cannot get it to work, let us know and we will email it to you in a different format. 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.
