Male Dog, Shepherd
Shepherd / Hound / Mixed (Medium Coat)
Description:
Thumbs is a new arrival and we are still learning about him but this boy is starting the search for his forever family. His foster family thinks "Toby" suits him a bit better. This handsome fellow is around 1 year old and 48lbs. So far his foster family has observed that Thumbs gives High Fives, seems to be house trained and is perfectly happy to spend time in the crate. He likes to nuzzle his nose into your side and then shimmy his tushie up to snuggle up on your chest at cuddle time. Thumbs is sweet, gentle, and intuitive. He enjoys playing outside in the fenced yard. The only toys that have caught his attention are the ball and elk antler but he is still learning about the good life. So far he has been respectful and kind to the kids, cats, and dogs in his foster family. If Thumbs sounds like a good match for you please email us at [email protected] to get an application. (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 [email protected]. 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!
