Male Dog, Hound
Hound / Terrier / Mixed (Medium Coat)
Description:
AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION! Meet Odin! Or Oddie as his foster family calls him. He is around 8 months old and 40 lbs and has THE most beautiful, soft brindle coat. He's a new arrival from an overcrowded shelter down South and he absolutely knows how to turn on that southern charm. At first meet, he will lean his whole body into you for some pets and love. He gives the sweetest kisses and nuzzles his nose right up to your face to say hello. He is full of love and so happy for any and all affection. Odin’s favorite activities since breaking out of the shelter include running around the yard with a tennis ball and curling up next to his people for a snuggle and nap. It's the little things in life, right? He loves to play with other dogs and is learning that nibbling on ankles is not fair play. We know he’ll catch on! Odin walks nicely on a leash, no pulling or trying to chase deer or squirrels. Since growing up in the shelter with his siblings, he's adjusting to sleeping without them. He does sleep through the night quietly and without accidents, but right now his foster mom stays next to the crate until he falls asleep. Someday he might like to sleep in bed with his forever family. He is so curious about this great big world and loves to stick by your side and check it all out. He doesn't seem bothered by vacuums, washers, doors, or steps. Car rides are no problem for this boy. And he is great with kids, too. Odin would love a fenced yard and would do best with a canine play mate but we suspect could also be an only dog. Odin would love to meet you! If interested in adopting, email [email protected] and ask about Odin, our heart melter from the shelter. (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!
