My story

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

Meet Wesley
PLEASE NOTE- AN APPLICATION FROM THE WEBSITE ALMOSTHOMEDOGS.ORG IS REQUIRED prior to any meet and greet. Calling, emailing and using the “contact us” link is not useful and will delay your consideration in the adoption of the dog. Petfinder inquires are not sent to us.

Who is looking for lots of love and kisses???? Wesley wants to meet everyone he sees...Wesley is an active, playful petite guy, estimated to be about 9 pounds and approaching a year old. A complete mix of breeds, Yorkie hair for sure, long legs and walks as if he owns the world like a min pin and what's up with that adorable face? Very sweet and affectionate, a great little walker and seems to be housebroken. Gets along with the 40 pound dogs in the foster home (and was also ok with a rottie at animal control). Will be fine without dogs as well. Just loves his people, cuddles and playtime.

Wesley will be best in a home without kids and with a savvy dog owner- needs some puppy manner training. Exhibited some guarding at animal control which has not been duplicated in the foster home, may have been stress related?

The adoption fee is $425, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including age appropriate vaccinations, worming, flea/tick preventative and spay/neuter. Puppies under 6 months of age may go to adoptive homes before they are spayed/neutered with a spay/neuter contract. Adopters who choose to adopt a puppy that has not yet been spayed/neutered are subject to an additional deposit of $100 (refundable upon proof of spay/neuter prior to the contracted date.) Included in the adoption fee, the rescue will arrange spay/neuter by a partner vet at a predetermined appointment when the puppy is between 7-9 months of age. It is the responsibility of the adopter to bring the adopted puppy back to the rescue vet for spaying/neutering or, if they choose, to send verification from their own vet (at the adopter's own cost) that the puppy had been spayed/neutered. All of our dogs will be microchipped.

Because our dogs are in foster homes, applications are required prior to setting up any appointments. Calling or emailing may delay your consideration. Find our application on our website, almosthomedogs.org, then click on "Adopt" tab at top

We are a non profit no kill 501 (c)3 rescue. Please understand that we do our best to describe our dogs but often we rescue them with virtually no information about them and often our best educated guess can be challenging. Currently check, cash or venmo is preferred payment.-
