About Rhett

Meet Rhett, a charming young male dog currently safe with Almost Home Foundation after being rescued. As a mixed breed, he brings the best traits of his Poodle heritage, and his small size makes him an ideal companion. This is a Pay It Forward dog, meaning his adoption donation of $700 will help another pup in need. Rhett’s bio will be updated as his temporary parent or one of our volunteers shares more about him. For now, you can catch him at one of our upcoming adoption shows or reach out via email to learn more. He’s ready to find a loving home that meets our adoption criteria — from having the consent of all household adults to being suburban Illinois residents. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
