We are a 501c3 non-profit all-breed rescue organization dedicated to saving lives and finding forever homes for stray, abandoned and surrendered dogs in danger of euthanasia. We are strictly a volunteer run organization and have no paid staff or board members.
We rely on a network of volunteer foster homes and do not have a physical shelter. Almost Home Rescue holds a Maine state permit to import dogs.

Most of AHR’s dogs have come from Arkansas kill shelters, however we also take dogs from local shelters, veterinarians and other situations that require rescue.

All of our imported dogs arrive with a current Health Certificate, meet Maine and New Hampshire state import and vaccination requirements, wormed, microchipped and transported on an U.S.D.A. approved transport.

Communication: We prefer e-mail. It is more accessible and you will get a quicker reply, it simplifies the process as we do most of the process on the computer and can share information with volunteers much easier.

Appointments: We are a shelter-less rescue. We do not have hours and we work full time jobs. If you would like to make an appointment to see a dog in foster care, please submit an application and your request, our fosters would be happy to accommodate you.

LOOKING TO SURRENDER YOUR DOG? Private citizens looking to surrender their dog, should first request assistance from their local shelter. Please do not advertise FREE to good home in the paper or Craig’s list, many of these dogs do not end up in good homes, but meet sad ends. If you are unable to find a safe place for your dog to go. Please e-mail: your contact information, pictures of your dog, age, health and vaccination history, behavioral history -including all personality quirks (no dog is perfect, it is important we know all personality information for the dog to be successful in another home environment) to: info_ahr@yahoo.com for consideration.
