Almost Home Herding Dog Rescue is a non-profit (501(c)(3) organization that is run by a small volunteer group that focuses on rescuing and re-homing Border Collies, Australian Shepherds, Rough Collies, Corgis and mixes of these breeds. We also rescue an occasional non-herding breed in need of a new home. Our first priority is pulling dogs from shelters since their time is very limited, but if there's foster space, we will take dogs from people that can no longer provide proper care for them. Our rescue is located in Gum Spring, Virginia between Charlottesville and Richmond and we also rescue dogs from surrounding states.
When available for adoption, our adult dogs have been spayed or neutered, tested for heartworm and tick diseases, received a health check and vaccinations and are on heartworm and flea and tick preventative. All dogs also have a microchip embedded. If a puppy is available that is too young to be spayed or neutered, the adopter will be required to complete a spay or neuter agreement. If you are seriously interested in one of our dogs, please complete the online adoption application. We will be in touch to schedule your home evaluation once we have contacted your vet's office to verify the information provided.
