Description
Dog Breed: Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie (medium 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. My name is Zane. I am almost ten years old and quite the gentleman. At just five and a half pounds, I’ve carried a story far bigger than my tiny body. One day, I found myself on a stranger’s porch—broken, hurting, and not sure if anyone would ever care. My skin was raw, like I’d been burned, and I felt like a ghost of the dog I once was. But fate was kind that day. The porch I chose belonged to someone with a heart big enough to see past my appearance. She didn’t turn me away. She scooped me up, and she saved me. Now, thanks to her care, my fur has grown back in, soft and handsome. When I look in the mirror now, I see not a victim, but a survivor. I’m nine years old, but I feel young again—full of joy, ready for love, ready for my forever family. I adore kids, cats, and dogs alike. I’m housebroken, leash trained, and I know how to use pee pads like a pro. I may have some sight issues, but don’t let that fool you—nothing slows me down when it comes to finding fun, snuggles, or a treat or two. I’ve known what it’s like to be lost, and I never want to feel that way again. What I want now is simple: a family who will see me for what I am—sweet, strong, and nothing short of perfect. Maybe that family is you? Love, Zane *Guest Posting* *Last picture is what I looked like when I was found* 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.

Breed overview

Overview:
A mongrel, mutt, or mixed-breed dog, is a dog that is not the result of breeding within an existing breed or to modify or create a breed and belongs to no breed. In the United States, the term "mixed-breed" is a favored synonym over "mongrel" among many who wish to avoid negative connotations associated with the latter term. The implication that such dogs must be a mix of defined breeds may stem from an inverted understanding of the origins of dog breeds. Pure breeds have been, for the most part, artificially created from random-bred populations by human selective breeding with the purpose of enhancing desired physical, behavioral, or temperamental characteristics. Dogs that are not purebred are not necessarily a mix of such defined breeds. Therefore, among experts and fans of such dogs, "Mongrel" is still the preferred term.
