The most special of duos These two have waited a very long time, March 2024 will mark 4 years in rescue for this pair so we would love to find them a home before then. Both came to Almost Home separately in March 2020, along with a large number of failed hunting dogs, Max & Macy are now the last of those dogs to be rehomed. Macy (now around 8) arrived with her two sisters Mia & Madison. Madison, the most confident of the sisters was rehomed but Mia & Macy needed more time to build their confidence & trust in humans. Max (now around 5) is a beautiful but very shy boy around humans, it’s taken him a long time but he’s learnt to trust our volunteers and now enjoys little interactions and strokes with us every day. Last July our hearts were broken to discover that Mia was terminally ill and passed away, leaving Macy on her own. In an effort to keep her spirits up and to stop her feeling lonely, our team decided to pair Macy with Maximus and the two have been inseparable ever since. We previously had advertised Maximus for rehoming on his own, however the team have decided it would be in Max & Macy’s best interest to try to find them a forever home together. We appreciate that adopting not only one, but two shy dogs is not an easy undertaking for anyone, but we really believe there is a perfect home out there with the time, patience and love to give them – and we know the best things in life are always worth waiting for! We’re looking for …. a quiet settled home with no children under 14 A very secure garden A family willing to fully commit to giving this pair all the patience, time and love they will need to settle in their new family There will be a huge line of volunteers crying the happiest of tears on the day these two leave us to start their new journeys with their new family. We will miss them terribly, but we know the right family is out there for our beautiful Max & Macy… Could it be with you?

Petunia & Taffy (AKA Tuna & Tuffs) Breed: Mixed Age: 5-6 Size: Small/Medium Temperament: Playful, friendly, shy. Special Requirements: Must be rehomed together. Cats: No Other dogs: Yes Children: 12+ This pair are very special to all of us at Almost Home. They arrived in June 2022, rescued from Pakistan where they led an appalling life. This duo found their safe haven with a lovely girl called Chris. Sadly Chris passed away & 9 of her beloved dogs arrived at Almost Home. Tuna & Tuffs are the last remaining 2 still looking for a home! They’re both very clever & despite their life of heartbreak and hurdles they always greet you with a smile. They absolutely love playing together & enjoy dancing around with the volunteers! Both are super cuddly & enjoy nothing more than getting belly rubs in the field. Because these 2 have come from a tough background, they require understanding & patience to settle into a home environment. They’re both unsure of new situations but their confidence is building and in the right home they will thrive. They will give unlimited happiness in return for your dedication & love.

Meet Tilly It’s time for another updated profile for one of our longest residents. Tilly has now been in our care for almost three years, and if we’re honest, we simply can’t understand why she’s still waiting. She’s a beautiful, big-hearted hound who has so much love to give. Like many hounds, she’s wonderfully independent and can be as stubborn as a mule when she decides she has other ideas—but that’s all part of her charm, and it never fails to make us smile. Tilly absolutely lives for her walks. Give her open fields, plenty of new scents to investigate, and time to explore at her own pace, and she’s in her element. Watching her nose lead the way is one of life’s simple pleasures. She’s social with other dogs and enjoys their company, but over the years she’s grown into a confident, settled girl who would also be perfectly happy as the only dog in the home, soaking up all the love and attention for herself. If there’s one thing that melts Tilly’s heart, it’s children. She absolutely adores them. We feel she could happily share her home with children aged 8 years and over. We do believe that something in her past has made her especially protective of the people she loves, particularly children, and that loyalty is simply part of who she is. Tilly is strong, affectionate, funny, and full of character. She’ll make you laugh with her stubborn streak, keep you active on adventures, and reward you with unwavering love and loyalty. After almost three years, we genuinely don’t know why this wonderful girl is still overlooked. She has waited long enough. Could you be the family that finally shows Tilly what it’s like to have a place to call home forever?
