Are you ready for Dexter to stealthily steal your heart? You’ll love Dexter, a 7-year-old dog who will charm you with his inquisitive gaze and willingness to learn. Despite his age, Dexter is agile and intelligent; his trainer would give him a gold medal in the DoggOlympics!
And he's pretty well trained too, check him out here: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/DTMYniyrDmJqV4BY/
Dexter gets along well with dogs around his size or bigger and loves to play with toys. Although he hasn't been around cats too often, he has met two and was curious but didn't lunge or chase them. With slow and supervised effort, he would likely get along fine with cats and small dogs.
Here's some videos of his dog interactions:

Dexter loves walks and exploring, loves his pool, so his trainer recommends he goes to an active home. He'd also do great with a veteran or senior who still has some pep in their step. When he's not out and about, Dexter enjoys snuggling up on the couch with his humans while watching Netflix.
Give this sweetheart a loving home in his elder years, especially this Holiday season. Please foster or adopt Dexter!

Additional adoption info
Those interested in dogs on our site are asked submit an application that we share with this dog's current caretaker. The caretaker reviews it to see if the pup would make a good fit for your home and if so, they will follow up with a phone interview. If you both agree it's a match, you would sign a contract, pay a fee and receive your dog within 2 weeks.
If both caretaker and applicant agree that the dog is a great fit, a contract is signed between the parties and the adoption fee is $400.00-$450.00 and is collected via PayPal. This adoption fee covers the cost of transport and also ensures the dog has all of it's basic vetting to include spay/neuter, shots, etc.

Our dogs travel from Atlanta, Georgia directly to their adoptive homes in the northeast. Our transporter drives up the coast from DC, all the way to Kittery, Maine.
While you can't meet our dogs prior to adoption, we will speak with you extensively, provide videos, share trainer evaluations and offer proof of vetting to ensure our dogs are a match for your home. Those that aren't, would be returned to us here in Atlanta at no cost to the adopter.
We also have partners in the Northeast who can help us facilitate adoptions and/or returns.

More about this rescue
Doggie Harmony was founded in Atlanta in 2009 by Liz Mansour and Jamie Sprague, a couple of neighbors seeking to help stray dogs that turned up locally.
From there, Doggie Harmony expanded to other neighborhoods and other people who found dogs and eventually, it was realized that nearly every neighborhood in Georgia found strays, most of which ended up in our grossly over-populated county shelters. With an estimated 300,000 unwanted pets destroyed yearly in Georgia shelters, we realized we had to find more homes to put them in.
In 2012, we began building partnerships with northeastern rescues and developed a consistent process for matching our dogs to great people and delivering those dogs to their homes up there. To become even more self-sufficent and less burdensome on our northeastern friends, we decided to launch Doggie Harmony Northeast.
