To save mama dogs and pups, provide care and enrichment and find loving, forever homes.
Our Mission
About Us
At Almost There Rescue, we believe every mama dog and pup deserves a safe place to land. We specialize in rescuing homeless pregnant mamas, nursing dogs, and young puppies, giving them the love, medical care, and support they need before finding their furever families.
Services We Offer
Adoptions, Fostering Program, Medical Care, Training/Behavior, Animal Rescue/Transport, Public Education, Volunteer Program
Adoption Process
If you find your perfect match, you’ll complete the adoption process and bring home your pup during your appointment time. You can check out our Canine Corner Shop, located in our lobby, for discounted supplies to get everything you need before heading home!
We’re happy to work with out-of-state adopters, but the same process applies and will need to be completed in person; dogs are not held, so having a flexible travel plan is important.
Adoption fees vary by dog and are listed on their profile. These fees are considered a donation and directly fund medical care, daily support, and allow us to continue saving more mamas + pups in need.
How to Meet Our Pets
Our adoptions are on a first-come, first-served appointment basis, as long as the home is the right fit. The dogs posted on our website are currently available for adoption or will become available within the week. You can view their adoption date by reading their bio through their Petfinder Profile by clicking on their photo on the website. We always recommend booking the earliest time available for the best chance at meeting your top choices. We do not allow holds, reservations, or deposits. You can view more about our upcoming dogs that aren’t posted to the website yet by following our Instagram and Facebook pages.
