My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi, my name is Shine! I'm about 7-1/2 years old and I originally came to Almost Home as a stray in August 2022. I was adopted for a while but I was returned in July 2023. I went to the doctor to look at the cataracts in my eyes, and they said that as I get older, I will most likely go completely blind - I guess it happens a lot in dogs who look like me. Don't worry though, I will still be able to live a long and happy life with my new family! I'm not a huge fan of the smaller humans, and I will do best as an only pet in my forever home. I'm up to date on my shots, spayed and microchipped, and tested negative for heartworm. I'm sitting here waiting for my forever home to come along... do you think yours could be it?
