Story
Be prepared to have your heart stolen by this boy. Pluto is a big pup at around 55 pounds, but please don't tell him this. He thinks he fits quite nicely on a lap. This sweetie is around 2 years old. Since being in his foster home, Pluto has been accident free, has shown nothing but love for his foster home kiddos and resident pup. He walks nicely on a leash, until he encounters a squirell and then it will require some strength to distract him. He doesn't like the idea of going in the crate and does put on the brakes, but once in the crate, he makes no fuss and sleeps through the night. His feelings are the same for the car. But these things are new to Pluto since he spent 219 days in a shelter. He will gain confidence everyday. He is a happy go lucky boy who struts around wagging his tail, just so happy to be with you. Pluto's foster kiddo said it best- " it's so easy to talk to Pluto- he just looks at you and wants to listen to what you say." We know Pluto will make a family very happy! This lovely guy is now available for adoption and is looking for a family who will continue to help him experience all the new and great things this world outside the shelter has to offer. If you are interested in Pluto please email almosthome4dogd@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!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 1, 2025, 7:48 pm
