Our Success

Xander was released from breeding the Summer of 2023. Initially, Xander did well at Almost Home Foster & Rescue.

Sara, nka Soda Pop, came into Almost Home Foster & Rescue pregnant.  Kaitlin Doubleday adopted Sara under our Foster to Adopt program.  The pups were born in September and are active and eating on their own.  The pups will also be adopted under our Foster to Adopt Program, a requirement since they are too young
