Story

Abby needed a home, so I agreed to take her. She was a rescue by an elderly couple and recently the wife had passed away. Abby is a very sweet quiet girl. She is 6 years old. She doesn't chew, bark and is not aggressive at all. She gets along with other dogs and she is very tender hearted. She is longing for acceptance into home that will live her. Abby pees in the kitchen on a rug at night. She does not seem to be able to go too many hours without being let out, although she tries. I do believe she may be lonely as she had a buddy in her previous home and I think she misses her friend and is lonely. Maybe her prior owners used pads with her that is unknown. She has scent hound in her and she follows her nose so she needs to be on a leash, if she doesn't have a fenced in area to be in. Looking for a good home for her, I have become attached to her but my husband is not wanting to have a dog right now.

Moonie

Border Collie Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Male, Young

Clarion, IA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

We picked up Moonie and his son, Loofy, in Tucson from an overwhelmed young woman (5 dogs in a tiny house & yard). We were hoping to keep them both, but the vet says Moonie has “sibling syndrome” with Loofy. He has resource aggression with Loofy and is very anxious & high strung whenever Loofy is around. When the other dogs are outdoors and it’s just Moonie and us, Moonie is amazingly calm and I can see how much happier he would be as an only-dog. Moonie LOVES his toys! He enjoys all manner of playing, from fetch to tug of war. He knows sit, down, shake, and can “stay” longer than any dog we’ve ever had. He is friendly with humans right away, and bonds quickly. He’s very affectionate and loves to chill and get rubs on the couch. Moonie would make a great companion for someone looking for an only-dog situation. Adoption fee will be donated to a local shelter. We are willing to drive him out-of-state for the right home.

Rio

Shepherd (Unknown Type)

Female, 4 yrs 8 mos

Albert Lea, MN

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Rio! Rio came to us as an owner surrender when her humans were moving and could not take her with. We believe she was born in February of 2020. Rio is currently around 50 pounds and we believe she would do best with older kids and adults. Rio is very scared of male humans especially on first meeting, she will bark and become defensive but with time and patience she does get used to them. She goes for a walk with a male dog walker every Saturday and does well. We believe Rio would do okay with other dogs (perhaps close to her size) but we are not sure how she would do with cats. She is a sweet girl that may need a refresher course on potty training and a few basic manners after she goes home. Rio is VERY high energy so she will need a home where she is kept busy / played with a lot! A fence may be ideal so she can run run run! All pets adopted from the Humane Society of Freeborn County will be spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, testing and will be microchipped. All of this is included in their adoption fee. Fill out an application to adopt at freeborncountyhs.org When transitioning your new pet home please allow for at least 4-6 weeks for your pet to adjust to their new home. They will need this time to decompress, and adjust to a new routine and environment. During that time we will provide check ins and counseling to ensure a successful transition. Please review all basic adoption requirements listed on our website before applying. We take finding the right homes for the animals in our care very seriously. They deserve nothing but the best! Please allow 2-7 days for applications to be processed. If an animal is listed in foster care, these pets are not at our facility, but are in foster care homes. They are still available for adoption, and meet and greets are done with pre-approved applicants only. If you have any questions feel free to send us an email at freeborncohumanesociety@gmail.com, send us a message on Facebook, or call or text 507-377-8501.

Meet Cody Meet Cody ADOPTION APPLICATIONS CAN BE ACCESSED ON OUR WEBSITE: almosthomefoster.com Almost Home Foster Kennels, MN Lic. 132328 is a 501c3, not-for-profit, foster-based, rescue organization. AHFK is located in SE Minnesota, in the Austin/Albert Lea area. AHFK is primarily a Beagle and small dog rescue. Our focus is to pull from High-Kill Shelters and to save those dogs that are at risk of euthanasia. All AHFK adoptions require an approved, completed application, a Veterinarian and Personal Reference Check, a smoke-free environment, and a home visit. Our Adoption fee is $425.00 for a single dog adoption. All our dogs are completely vetted, 4DX tested, current on vaccinations, *spayed/neutered, and microchipped. *Puppies are eligible for our Foster to Adopt Program. No puppy will be spayed or neutered prior to 6 months of age. If the family wishes to “Foster to Adopt” the puppy will be fostered by the potential, adopting family until such time that the dog is spayed/neutered. At that time, with proof of spay or neuter procedure, ownership will transfer and a refund of $75.00 will be refunded to the adoptive family. All Foster to Adopt families will agree to and sign a separate Waiver regarding the spay and neuter procedure of adopting puppies prior to 6 months of age. No puppy will leave Almost Home Foster/Rescue prior to being fully vaccinated. The last vaccination is received between 16-18 weeks of age. We are currently accepting adoption applications for Cody. Cody’s DOB is 03.28.2023. Cody’s momma is a full Beagle. We are unsure of the breed of the poppa. Cody is a puppy, therefore we are looking for a home with a securely fenced yard and a family with one Pet Parent that is a stay-at-home parent, or one which works from home; a family that can help Cody acclimate to his new surroundings and environment with compassion, love, and patience. Please allow 6-8 weeks for Cody to acclimate to the drastic changes in his life. Meet and greets are scheduled upon approved, completed application. If interested in Cody, adoption applications can be filled out and submitted on our website: almosthomefoster.com

Buddy was surrendered to a Veterinary clinic in the Tulsa OK area. His owner had moved, out of country, and left Buddy with family members. The family did not want Buddy and surrendered him for euthanasia. The veterinary staff could not euthanize Buddy and kept him in a crate until they could find a rescue or adopter. Buddy lived in this crate for 40 days. Buddy needs a securely fenced yard as he loves to visit nearby neighbors and confiscate articles of property that do not belong to him. Buddy needs a human that will have time, patience, and love for him. He has been neglected and allowed to roam freely. He needs a routine and structure. He loves to be outside and thoroughly enjoys leash walking. Buddy shows some issues with resource guarding with other dogs. He has been through training and his new owner will have to carry through with positive reinforcement. We have not had an issue with guarding against humans. Buddy is of the Beagle breed, a natural hunter, therefore, we are looking for a home with a securely fenced yard and a family with one Pet Parent that is a stay-at-home parent, or one which works from home; a family that can help Buddy acclimate to her new surroundings and environment with compassion, love, and patience. Please allow 6-8 weeks for Buddy to acclimate to the changes in his life. We would also like Buddy to be the only dog. Meet and greets are scheduled upon approved, completed application. If interested in meeting Buddy, please complete the application found on our website: almosthomefoster.com
