My story

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

Available for adoption! 
Frida is a beautiful black and tan hound mix girl! She is around 10 months old and 30-35 lbs. This leggy and slender girl has some filling out to do so she will likely end up around 45 lbs. Frida was overlooked in the overcrowded shelter and sadly spent most of her young life there before ending up on the dreaded urgent list. She is safe now and loving life in her foster home! 
 
Frida hasn’t been with us long and she is soaking up every moment! She is SOO happy to have toys! It did not take her long to discover all of the fun toys in her foster home. She loves stuffies but comes with the disclaimer that she might rip them up. Bones and treat dispensing toys are a favorite of hers too. When she is in the mood she will play fetch. Frida can also be found romping around in the yard with her foster home dog pals. She would likely be fine as an only dog or would be a good match for a playmate. 
 
Frida hasn’t had much leash walking experience at all but in a short time she has shown us she is pretty good at it and enjoys it. We think she would make a great walking trail or hiking buddy. She is a bit afraid of cars (both parked and moving) but has been getting much better with them each walk. This is a smart girl and she is very food motivated. She has quickly learned “sit” and hasn’t had any accidents in her foster home. She is sleeping quietly in the crate overnight and is fine in there when her foster people aren’t home.
 
Frida is a sweet, goofy and fun-loving lady. She enjoys getting attention from people and that love she missed out on. She is still learning puppy manners like not jumping and nibbling but is a quick study looking to please. 
 
This sweet girl will be a great addition to many homes! If you are interested in Frida email us at almosthome4dogs@yahoo.com. 

(Local adoptions preferred — Philadelphia and tri-state area [South Jersey and northern Delaware] only.) PLEASE READ BEFORE CONTACTING US! We are NOT a shelter: All of our dogs live in private homes with foster families. Come and meet the Almost Home dogs and their fosters at our Meet & Greet events, where you can learn more about our wonderful dogs from the people who live with them, find out which dogs are on their way and when they’ll arrive, and fill out an application to adopt or foster. We cannot adopt to homes where electric-shock fencing systems or training collars are used. For more information on the dangers of electric-shock collars, please visit banshockcollars.ca/studies.php . We do not have an online adoption application; to request an application, e-mail us at AlmostHome4Dogs@yahoo.com. To speed e-mail processing time, be sure to note the name of the dog you are inquiring about in the Subject line. For Meet & Greet times and locations, visit our home page, where you also will find information on our adoption process and fees. FOSTER FAMILIES ARE LIFESAVERS!! Can you open your heart and home for a few weeks to homeless shelter dog? Remember, by fostering a dog, you save TWO lives — that of your foster dog, and that of the dog who takes his place in the shelter! Come to a Meet & Greet and find out if fostering is for you — there's no reward quite like the feeling that you've saved a life ... or two!

More about this rescue

We are a small group of volunteers whose goal is to save the lives of homeless dogs suffering in high-kill shelters. In doing so, we hope to provide an alternative to the purchase of puppy-mill and pet-store dogs, thereby reducing the demand for and ultimately the supply of such dogs. We strive to match each dog with the right family after the dog has been observed in a foster home.
