My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Tito is a shy but affectionate chihuahua and dachshund mix. He was surrendered, along with his sister Luna, by the owner's family as the owner has developed dementia.  In his foster home, Tito is finding his security and confidence again.  In his original home, there was chaos and he didn't understand any of it.

Tito would do best in a loving home, no small kids.  He is small and I would prefer he wasn't overwhelmed by toddlers.

 He takes a little bit of time to trust and warm up to new people but he is young and will learn quickly.  Where his sister was the boss of the duo, Tito is more timid but he absolutely enjoys affection and a lap. Now that she has been adopted, Tito is starting to come into his own and really blossom.  He's funny, he's a good boy but now that she's not directing him, he's kind of seeing how far he can get away with things.

He seems to do fine with the larger foster dogs, I can't see that he would mind a dog savvy cat but he does want to play with everyone, even if they don't want to play with him.  I think he would really benefit from having a playful canine companion.

He has to use pee pads most of the time, in his current foster situation but on the weekends, when he can access the outdoors, he is good about going outside to potty.

Adoption fee is $250

Age: 11 months  Weight: 10 lbs   Temperament: Gets along with other dogs and adults, not kid or cat tested yet.     Vetting: neutered, up to date on vaccines, HW negative. Training:  He needs training, he seems to be housetrained.   Email for questions: pheiges@yahoo.com    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.

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

We are 100% volunteer/foster based, so we do ask that you complete an adoption application in order for us to schedule a phone interview.

2.

Interview

After reviewing your application, we'll contact you to determine if dog is a good fit for your lifestyle and home.

3.

Approve Application

We check vet and personal references to ensure previous dogs were well cared for, so please be thorough in providing this info.

4.

Home Check

This enables the dog to get to know you and your home and for us to suggest anything they may need to be successful in your home.

5.

Sign Adoption Contract

You would also pay the fee at this time, however, we offer a 2 week trial period before cashing your check. We will always take dogs back.

Additional adoption info

You will be asked to complete an Adoption Application (www.bit.ly/dh-adoption) and allow a home visit to ensure the pet is a good fit for your home/lifestyle.

We are primarily a placement service, so the adoption fees vary depending on each pet and what caretakers have invested medically and behaviorally to ensure they are adoption-ready.

Go meet their pets

Doggie Harmony does not hold regular adoption events, but follow our Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/doggieharmony) for special events. We also encourage you to contact us about pets you may be interested in, as we are always willing to bring them to meet you.

We do not have a shelter, so please understand that we are only able to support animals with foster homes or donations toward short-term boarding.

More about this rescue

Doggie Harmony is a metro-Atlanta dog rescue group focused on finding the right homes for dogs in foster care or belonging to owners who wish to re-home them. Our core objective is to place these dogs before they are turned over to animal control facilities, where they may be euthanized. Lastly, Doggie Harmony supports spay/neuter, wellness, and training to help keep or place dogs. This includes helping people find low cost resources and/or lending financial support where there's a qualified need.
