My story

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

Courtesy post Homer is a lovable, snuggly 7-year-old pit with plenty of energy. Homer weighs 56 pounds and knows basic commands like sit, lay down, stay, come, and shake. He enjoys leashed walks and loves cuddling on the couch or bed with his humans. Homer is affectionate, enjoys giving kisses, and loves ear scratches, belly rubs, and playing with toys (indestructible toys recommended!). He is up to date on his shots and neutered. We can provide a dog bed, food, bowls, leash, and more for his new home. Homer would thrive as the only pet in a household. He can walk past other dogs on the street, but he prefers not to share his home with them. While he might be fine with a cat that keeps to itself, he is best suited for a home without children due to his resource guarding tendencies. A potential adopter should be knowledgeable about or willing to learn about managing resource guarding. Homer is a sweet dog 90% of the time and just needs an environment that minimizes his triggers, allowing him to thrive. He has received training through K9 Koncepts, which offers lifetime support. We can potentially transfer this training to the adopter at no cost, pending confirmation with K9 Koncepts. Contact Erica at erica.cranford11@gmail.com Disclaimer*** Unfortunately, there are not enough rooms at the inn to admit every dog that needs a furever home. But, we still want to help those dogs (and cats) on their journey! By courtesy posting, AAHA is offering our website/network as an additional resource to help an owner or shelter gain additional exposure for the dog they are trying to place. AAHA has not met nor evaluated the dog (or cat) we are courtesy posting. AAHA makes no representation about courtesy posted pets including the health and temperament and accepts no liability in this exchange. Arrangements for adoptions are made between the caretaker of the pet and the potential adopter.November 1, 2024, 4:09 pm

Additional adoption info

An approved application, vet reference, personal reference check and home visit are required to finalize an adoption. We suggest a $200 donation that helps offset some of our expenses such as feeding, boarding, training, vaccinations, spay/neuter, and miscellaneous veterinary costs.
Adoption fees are used to continue to help homeless animals in need!

We are a rescue that is dependent on volunteers as we do not have a physical building. We rent space at a kennel in Upperco, Md. If you would like to meet one of our dogs please contact us to make arrangements. Thanks!

More about this rescue

Adopt a Homeless Animal Rescue (AAHA) is a nonprofit dedicated to rescuing and assisting animals in crisis. We actively combat animal cruelty in any form.

We have a particular commitment to pit bulls and aim to raise awareness about the breed, help those in need, and educate the public:
•We seek to promote this lovely yet unfairly maligned breed as the sweet, intelligent, affectionate, and people-oriented dogs they are.
•We assume stewardship over their well-being and strive to make this world a better place for them.
•We serve as a resource and/or liaison for shelters, individuals, and the community at large, advocating for any animal in harm's way.
•We also function in an advisory role for private citizens who seek assistance and guidance in better caring for their pets.

We are a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

Please help us help the animals!
