Almost Home featured in People Magazine!

Nikki the German Shepherd spent months on the streets of Detroit before Almost Home Animal Rescue League and South Lyon Murphy Lost Animal Recovery saved the dog.

We are thankful 🧡🙌
Not just today, but every single day that we can help an orphaned animal find their forever home 🏠 This is the season to appreciate everything that you have and give what you can to others. Almost Home could not do it without our team 🫵 To the volunteers that give their time, the shelters that dedicate themselves, the foster families that open their homes, and all those who donate even in this tough economy... WE. THANK. YOU. ❤ Without you being a voice, advocate and supporter, there would be so many more homeless animals in this world. 🐶🐱

Meet Gail and her daughter, Lauren of Almost Home

About Us

Almost Home Animal Rescue League was founded in 1999 by Gail Montgomery Schwartz and Lauren Montgomery Anchill.  The mother and daughter team became disheartened while volunteering at various animal shelters.

Being of the ‘never kill’ philosophy, they were disturbed by the endless euthanasia practiced simply because animals were born homeless and society felt there was no place for them.

Gail and Lauren wanted a huge difference in our animals’ lives.  Almost Home became the first Never Kill 501 (c)(3) animal rescue organization.  Almost Home is the one and only pure never kill organization.  It’s truly a place for dogs and cats to not only feel safe but to be safe.

We are so proud of our work and all the people who are instrumental in saving lives with us.  Here’s to being the model never kill animal rescue.  Love to all.  Peace and good life to all.
