About

Meet Cindy

Cindy is the sweetest little small breed mix! She is around 8 years old and 25lbs and recently arrived to one of our foster homes after her owners could not afford to care for her and she ended up in a rural high-kill shelter.    Cindy adores attention and curling up with loving people in a cozy spot in the couch. She has a docked tail so her whole butt wiggles with excitement when she gets affection. She has been great with all of the dogs in her foster home despite being recently attacked by another dog while in the shelter (scabs on face healing well). We think she could be happy with dogs pals or as a solo pup. Cindy has enjoyed meeting some kiddos and seems just as happy to get pets from them as she does from adults.    Cindy enjoys playing from time to time and sniffing around the yard. She is good on a leash and seems to enjoy walks. We are not sure that she knows how to potty while in a leash yet. In the short time she has been with us she has not had accidents in the house and does great taking care of business in the fenced yard. She has remained quite brave through all of the changes in her life recently. She rides nicely in the car and is just happy to be with her people. ❤️   Cindy has plenty of love left to give! She is truly one of the sweetest and comes with soulful eyes that will melt your heart.    If you are interested in Cindy please email us at [email protected]! Make her part of your forever family in time for the holidays! You won’t regret it!     (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 [email protected]. 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!
