Please contact ADOPTION (adopt@doggieharmony.org) for more information about this pet. Patsy is on her second adoptive home. Though we all hoped differently, it’s more like a misfit sock than a cozy pair! She is looking for a new foster or adoptive home ASAP!
Patsy absolutely shines as an only pet in an adult home with a daily dose of exercise, which is what she had in her first adoptive home. Tragically her first mom sadly left this world way shut too soon, leaving Patsy alone in the home feeling confused and uncertain.
Patsy is 35 pounds of sassy sweet fun! She gets along well with male dogs and can tolerate female dogs who accept her assertive nature. But she really seems to thrive best as the only dog and ‘child’ in the home - she got used to being the center of some loving pet parent(s) world.
Right now, she may feel like a deer in headlights in a bustling house full of kids or furry pals. There have been some cheeky incidents, like a little nip at a neighbor kid on a bike and a some squabbles over toys and food with other her dog roommate.
We believe she’s a mix of border collie intelligence and Jack Russell bravado. These breeds require someone who is willing to keep up on her training and provide structure - she doesn't need to run the house. She will actually be a happier dog if she knows her person is in charge.
What Patsy really dreams of is a home that mirrors her first happy digs! Think you could be the perfect match? Give us a shout!

To ensure we're meeting both pet and adopters' needs, we ask potential adopters to complete an Adoption Application (www.bit.ly/DH-Adoption) for caretakers to review. Once your application is approved, we will bring the adoptable pet to your home for a preliminary visit.
We are 100% donation-funded and our fees are equivalent to (or less than) the cost to fully vet a new dog yourself. Please expect an adoption fee of $300; some of our urgent or long-term dogs have discounted fees.
