My story

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

Meet Miss Nova!

Miss Nova is an adult Catahoula/Rottweiler mix who found herself on borrowed time when her and her sister lost the only home they`ve ever known due to no fault of their own. Luckily, Almost Home Foundation was able to step up and save both of them just in time, but now Miss Nova is looking for a forever home. 

Miss Nova doesn’t only have beauty, but she has brains too! She knows the commands: sit, down, paw, high-five, and spin (& boy oh boy, does she look adorable doing them)! She is potty trained, crate trained, and rides nicely in the car. She loves humans of all ages and would make the perfect family dog. She is currently fostered with several other dogs and does wonderful with all of them! (She also previously lived with a cat and we believe she could live with a cat again in her forever home). Miss Nova matches other dogs energy levels well and she is a playful girl who would love a playmate in her forever home. Don’t get us wrong though, shes not ALL play. If allowed, Miss Nova will make herself right at home with you on a cozy couch or bed! If there’s zzz’s to catch, she will be sure to catch them!

This beautiful girl was saved from euthanasia but her journey isn`t over yet. If you can be Miss Nova`s ‘happily ever after`, please fill out a no-obligation application so a meet and greet can be arranged.

We make every effort to have each one of our available animals at a show each weekend. The schedule can be found on our web site www.almosthomefoundation.org under Adopt and is updated the Friday evening prior to the Saturday show.

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.
