Our rescues often come from deplorable conditions. Often they are suffering from malnutrition, injury, and sickness. Their coats are matted and filthy. We provide them with medical care and nourishment, clean them up, and work to gain their trust so that we can send them to a forever home where they will be cared for and loved.

Make a Contribution!
Almost Home heavily relies on donations to be able to continue our rescue. Quite often, the cost to rescue a dog far exceeds our requested adoption fee.
To donate, please either click the donate link above, or mail a check to :: Almost Home Dog Rescue of Ohio c/o Trudy Beachem, Treasurer 190 Beech Drive Delaware, OH 43015
If you have questions, please contact Trudy at macintoshtt@frontier.com. Upon request, we will send you a letter acknowledging your gift for tax purposes. Thank you for all past and potential donations. Your generosity is saving lives.
Please ask your friends to adopt dogs from shelters or rescues rather than buying them from pet stores. A dog is killed due to the lack of a home approximately every 9 seconds ... adopting rescue or shelter dogs will help to reduce the number of dogs euthanized in shelters; it will also reduce the demand for puppies bred for sale in pet stores in the inhumane conditions of puppy mills.
In rescue, we become quite attached to the animals that come into our program, and we enjoy hearing your adoption stories and seeing your photos of our rescue dogs in their forever homes.
If you have adopted one of our dogs, please email us with your stories and pictures so that we can share them with everyone who visits our site.
