Maynard

My name is Maynard and I am a senior dog looking for a place to spend my golden years. My backstory is a pretty sad one. I was found abandoned in a camper in southern Illinois. I had clearly been there for some time because I was super skinny. Sadly, the other dog in the camper was already deceased by the time we were found. Luckily Almost Home Foundation found a foster parent with a soft spot for seniors and was able to save me from an uncertain fate.<br/><br/>But enough about my past. Let’s talk about the present. I am currently in a foster home with two adult humans and two doggie sisters while I wait to be adopted. I get along with the other dogs here. There are no cats or kids so I’m not sure how I would do with them. I am also housebroken, crate-trained, and fine being home alone when the humans are at work. I am very laid back. My favorite thing to do is to find the comfiest bed in the house to snooze in. I sure do love napping! My foster mom says that I am a total sweetheart and have the most soulful eyes. Sometimes I rest my head on her lap and she can’t resist petting me (which is exactly what I wanted!). <br/><br/>That’s the basic information about me. And since you clicked on my picture and read my bio, here is what I know about you: you are willing to look beyond a dog’s age and get to know them for who they are. Age is just a number. I know that older dogs are often overlooked at adoption shows. People want younger dogs who are going to be around for a long time. And to that I say, don’t forget about us older pups! Seniors make great companions and have a lot of love to give.<br/><br/>Do you have room in your heart and home for me? If so, email dogs@almosthomefoundation.org to get in touch with my foster parents.<br/><br/>Adoption fee is $140<br/>Email: dogs@almosthomefoundation.org<br/><br/>Almost Home Foundation's adoption requirements:<br/>(1) Be at least 21 years of age;<br/>(2) Have the consent of all adults living in the household;<br/>(3) Have approval from the residence owner;<br/>(4) Have valid ID with current address;<br/>(5) Be approved by Almost Home Foundation as a suitable adoptive home; and<br/>`(6) Live in the suburbs surrounding Schaumburg (Illinois Residents only)<br/>*** Please note that Almost Home Foundation accepts only cash, Zelle, or checks for adoption fees; we do not accept debit or credit cards. ***
