Meet Xavier, the ultimate lap dog! Being held is one of his favorite things.  This small 5 year-old terrier mix loves to sit in your lap and will roll over for belly rubs.  He is neutered, current on vaccinations, laid-back and super sweet!!!  And did we mention he walks well on leash and is housetrained.  What an awesome little dog! Xavier came to Almost Home Adoption Center after being picked up by animal control.  You have to wonder how such a cute little guy ended up on the streets. Did you know that November is Adopt a Senior Pet Month?  While Xavier isn't quite a senior, he is mature and has many of the attributes of a senior.  Seniors make excellent pets as they are often already housetrained, their personalities are more established, thus eliminating a lot of the guesswork that goes with a young animal, and there's much less chewing and other rambunctious puppy habits.  All of those benefits pale, however, to perhaps one of the main reasons mature pets are so terrific.  They tend to be more grateful for their homes.  They just want to be part of the family. So do you want to be a hero?  If so, consider adopting Xavier.  He'll be so thankful that you won't help but realize you've done something special.  Xavier has a really nice life ahead of him if only he can find a person to call his own.  If you're looking for a lap dog, please consider making Xavier your own.  You can adopt Xavier for only $75.00.

Meet Snowflake!  This sweet 8 year old kitty came to the shelter after her pet parent passed away.  Snowflake is a laid-back lady of a cat with very mellow and gentle personality.  Like many of us, Snowflake is fighting the battle of the bulge.  She currently weighs a bit over 20 pounds and is trying to lose weight.  But it isn't easy!  She's currently on a low calorie diet and will need to continue the diet in her new home.  Snowflake is friendly, spayed, litter box trained and current on vaccinations.  Come out to the adoption center to meet this feline - she likes to hang out in the front lobby and greet the visitors to the Almost Home Adoption Center!  You can adopt Snowflake today for just $75.00.  (Pet ID - C10-285)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Meet Yukon!  This stunning 10 year old male American Eskimo Dog is housetrained, neutered and current on vaccinations.  He and his best pal Jasmine were abandoned by their owner but fortunately this sweet duo is at Almost Home Adoption Center where they're looking for a 'new leash on life'.  American Eskimo Dogs are described as intelligent, alert and friendly.  Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks!  Did you know that November is Adopt a Senior Pet Month?  Seniors make excellent pets as they are often already housetrained, their personalities are more established, thus eliminating a lot of the guesswork that goes with a young animal, and there's much less chewing and other rambunctious puppy habits.  All of those benefits pale, however, to perhaps one of the main reasons mature pets are so terrific.  They tend to be more grateful for their homes.  They just want to be part of the family. So do you want to be a hero?  If so, consider adopting Yukon. He'll be so thankful that you won't help but realize you've done something special. You can adopt him for just $75.00. Or how about this bonded pair for $100.00 - Yukon and Jasmine will be so appreciative and you'll be glad you did it! (Pet ID # D10-441 & D10-442)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Meet Trixie!  Trixie is a gorgeous three-year-old Calico.  She and her best buddy Oreo came to the adoption center after their pet parent had to move due to an illness, and could no longer keep them.  It was a very hard thing for Trixie and Oreo's human mom to do, because she loved them very much.  She wanted them to find a home with the love and care she could no longer give them.  Trixie currently weighs about 10 pounds, is spayed, current on all her vaccinations and is litter box trained.  You can adopt Trixie today for $75.00, or adopt her and her buddy Oreo for $100.  (Pet ID - C10-287 and C10-288)
