My story

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

Rocho is fun, affectionate, and the best cuddler with the softest fur. He is 2 years old and 62 pounds of love!

Rocho gets along with every dog he meets. In his previous foster home, he lived wonderfully with SIX young kids. Currently, he resides with two teenagers and loves to be their sidekick.

Rocho landed in a crowded shelter due to a neglect situation and after some months found himself on the euthanasia list for space. Luckily, his foster family saw what a sweet boy he was and saved him.

Rocho is house trained. He sleeps all night in his crate without any fuss and will even go in on his own when he is tired. He has excellent car manners and loves to go for rides. He is working on not pulling so much on the leash when he sees another dog. He just gets too excited!

Rocho really wants to please his humans and loves to hear praises and get rubs. He is also very food motivated which makes training easy. He knows sit, stay, down, and leave it.

Rocho loves to fetch and loves toys. He will often choose a toy to take on a walk with him and keeps up with it. He will also play by himself with a toy and stay entertained quite a while and at the same time his antics can keep you entertained! He precious laying on his back and holding a toy in the air above his own head or tossing a ball for himself. Rocho is a silly boy who would love to find his forever family. In return, he will give you endless wags and cuddles.

Age: 2 years  Weight: 62 lb   Temperament: good with dogs,  good with kids, not good with cats  Training: Housetrained, crate trained .    Vetting: neuter ed, up to date on vaccines, HW negative     For questions, please email:   sonaligokhale@yahoo.com  â€‹   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.

Their adoption process

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.
