Dixie Mae

Here's a shout out to Dixie Mae, a pretty 3-year old heeler-shepherd mix ready for her next adventure with a forever family. Dixie Mae weighs about 42 pounds and loves outdoor times with other dogs in her fenced-in yard and on walks. She has brown stockings, muzzle, and apron and a white spot--called a Bentley Mark--on her forehead. She is so happy when she sees her leash come out and will often "stop, drop, and roll" during those neighborhood walks. Whoever walks her loves to see her thick, somewhat shorter-than-expected tail wagging away. She enjoys spending time with her foster family--in the kitchen, office, TV room for Phillies games, or even outside during her foster Mom's weeding duties. And her presence sure does make those weeds not nearly so annoying. After a busy day, she is happy to curl up by her foster Mom's feet and sleep. Dixie Mae is house-trained, micro-chipped, spayed, and up-to-date on all her vaccinations. Her bags are packed and she is ready for a happy place with a dedicated family who appreciate that she might be a bit reserved at first but want to provide a safe and loving landing for her.<br/><br/>Please email us at<br/>AlmostHome4Dogs@yahoo.com<br/>for an application or more information.<br/><br/>(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 AlmostHome4Dogs@yahoo.com. 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!
