My story

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

Eliana is looking for a foster or forever home!

Eliana was found as a stray in Alabama. Her future was uncertain until she was rescued by Almost Home Foundation. She was transported to Illinois so she could have a better chance at finding a fur-ever home.

Eliana is shy around new people but is sweet and loving once she gets to know you. She is great with other dogs, as well as children. We do not know how she is with cats. She is also housebroken. Eliana is very smart and is quick to learn commands. She has the typical mischievousness of a young dog so continued training is important. Physical and mental engagement is also important for her. She LOVES to run in the yard and chase squirrels. She will get the zoomies but then be chill afterward. But don’t let her chill nature in the house fool you, this girl has energy! She also loves toys, especially chewing on bones. She also enjoys walks. She does pull initially but responds well to commands to stop or heel. She is up-to-date on shots, micro-chipped, heartworm negative, spayed, and weighs about 50 pounds.

Do you have room in your heart and home for Eliana? If so, email dogs@almosthomefoundation.org to get in touch with one of our volunteers.

Adoption fee is $320

More about this rescue

We are in need of Foster Homes for our homeless animals!!! Can you help?

What is a Foster Home?
A foster home takes in one of our homeless animals rather than boarding them at the kennel and cares for it until we find a permanent loving home. Almost Home Foundation pays for the all animal's food and medical expenses. The foster home learns the animal's temperament and behaviors. The foster home learns if they get along with other animals. The foster home provides insights on the animals that helps Almost Home Foundation look for the right home for the animal.

Please help!! Just fill out this form and we will contact you or call 630-582-3738 and leave a message letting us know that you are interested in fostering!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

We are an all-volunteer, registered, not-for-profit 501c3 animal rescue group. Our mission is to save adoptable dogs and cats from being destroyed by finding permanent, loving homes. For details, visit us online at www.almosthomefoundation.org.

Almost Home Foundation is always looking for volunteers to handle dogs at adoption shows, set up adoption shows, write for the newsletter, photograph events, or foster animals. For a list of opportunities, visit online at www.volunteermatch.org
or www.almosthomefoundation.org.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are a Rescue not a Shelter. This simply means we do not own a building where we house animals. We look for loving foster homes that will give temporary care and love on the animal’s journey to a permanent, loving home. When a foster home is not available, we will board the animal at a boarding kennel.

Our 5-year goal is to have a shelter. This is an aggressive goal that will take many donations and memberships. We will strive for this goal with a great team of volunteers and help from people like you! Please become a member, become a sponsor or make a donation.

Our animals are found strayed and brought in from the police. After being held for 7 days, we evaluate the temperament of the animal and determine if the animal is suitable to be a pet. On rare occasion, we will also rescue animals that are in desperate situations where the rescue makes the difference between life and death. We do not accept Owner Give-ups.
