Depending on the success of fundraising and ongoing operational needs, the center could have 10 full-time employees, 22 part-time employees and a number of volunteers. Volunteers are a vital part of Almost Home Adoptions. We have a team of dedicated volunteers, and we are currently looking for new volunteers join our team.

If constructed, the center would be able to house 56 dogs. Each dog will be assessed for behavior, temperament and medical issues before being accepted and put up for adoption. The organization exists for the purpose of enriching a dogs life by creating a temporary caring environment while pursuing and facilitating Adoption to loving homes. Likewise, they need loving and patient families to help them adjust to a new life.

We cannot thank them enough for their commitment to finding a forever home for every single one of our furry friends. Almost Home Animal Rescue League was founded in 1999 by Gail Montgomery Schwartz and Lauren Montgomery Anchill. The mother and daughter team became disheartened while volunteering at various animal shelters. Adoption fees will reflect factors such as the cost for vaccinations, any required special medical treatment and the age of the dog.
Our adoption fee is $300 with an extra $50 deposit for unaltered puppies. At Almost Home Dog Rescue, we’re running on dog time. We live dogs, we love dogs, and we like to learn about them. We aim to provide a safe haven for dogs that have been abandoned through no fault of their own, rehome them, and to educate the next generation of dog owners.

Euthanasia would be considered only if a dog is found not to be adoptable due to severe illness, health issues or severe aggression.

These dogs adjust with patience and love over the course of weeks or months. They do not transition in just a few days so please do not expect perfection. We require vet and reference checks and a home visit for all adoptions.
When a dog is listed as “PENDING,” then he/she has a “pending” application, but has not been officially approved to adopt through AHR. A huge part of what we do is to teach those adopting from us what dogs are "saying" to us with their body language...one of the most important aspects of the human/dog relationship. In addition to all the wonderful public donations we are supported in large by amazing and caring corporate sponsors.
Why should you adopt?
A foster-based, non-profit 501 organization dedicated to finding loving, forever homes for homeless animals. In the coming months, Almost Home will launch a capital campaign to drum up the funds needed to construct and operate the dog adoption center. If built, it would be the first dog-only adoption center in Lancaster County. Almost Home Adoptions for rescued cats is a registered 501c3 nonprofit rescue and adoption center located in Westminster, Colorado.
If you have the social responsibility to adopt a shelter dog as your new family member, you are also accepting the responsibility of acclimating your pet to its new surroundings, family, and resident pets. Each AHR dog has an adoption coordinator, and, currently, AHR has four coordinators. Please send all inquiries and applications to the adoption coordinator listed within the dog posting. When a dog is listed as “URGENT,” it means the dog is in danger of being euthanized. If a dog says “in ME,” “in NH,” or “in NE,” then they are in foster care and available to meet after the adoption approval. Developers of a proposed $3 million adoption center for nearly 60 dogs in Conoy Township have withdrawn their land development plan for a 17-acre tract along Route 441.
Please donate today, any amount will help towards keeping our doors open. Gail and Lauren wanted a huge difference in our animals’ lives. Almost Home became the first Never Kill 501 animal rescue organization. Almost Home is the one and only pure never kill organization. It’s truly a place for dogs and cats to not only feel safe but to be safe.

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.
We are so proud of our work and all the people who are instrumental in saving lives with us. Here’s to being the model never kill animal rescue. All dogs benefit from obedience training as it teaches them simple commands like sit, stay and heel. More importantly, it helps dogs build self-confidence, teaches them social skills, and helps them bond with their new human family. Many adopters have regretted not going to formal obedience training. Many dogs have not experienced things such as love, toys, bones, the inside of a house, or how to climb stairs.
“This is a win-win for all parties involved,” said Jim Warner, CEO for the authority’s board of directors, which is slated to approve preparation of a formal agreement of sale during a board meeting Feb. 16. Cost played a big role in Almost Home’s decision to relocate. Board chairman Ken Rice received a “very generous offer” from the authority, according to Almost Home spokeswoman Nell McCormack Abom. Some listings contain “cross-post” contact information, which means AHR is listing a dog for another person or rescue group.
Almost Home is also committed to assisting families with their pet needs, preventing unnecessary surrenders to local municipal shelters, made possible through our Training Wheels® program. Almost Home strives to help animals live better quality of lives while building a more humane community one family at a time. When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes. Our intake and adoptions have increased tremendously but so has our rent and expenses.
