Story
Loves kids, good with cats and dogsMisha is not just a beauty, she is also very sweet, submissive, playful, smart, and high-energy. She loves everyone – adults, kids, dogs and cats - and would do best in a home with another dog or some active kids/adults that will keep her engaged. Misha is very playful and can be a vocal communicator, but she is also very respectful of other animals’ boundaries and is nonreactive when checked – she was even attacked by a cat once that did not take kindly to her barking, and Misha’s response was to run away! Misha was found tied to RR tracks in Atlanta in August 2023, emaciated and abandoned. She was taken in by a loving family that included a cat and a toddler, but they were never able to get Misha to a healthy weight. Eventually, she was diagnosed with Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency, which means that her body does not produce an enzyme that she needs to properly digest and metabolize her food.. This is not uncommon in shepherds but it can be very expensive to treat, and unfortunately Misha’s original rescuer could not afford her care so she came to Doggie Harmony in September 2024. After trying out several pancreatic enzyme options (both in her former home and after coming to us), we discovered that the only treatment that seems to work for Misha is Viokase-V, a powdered supplement that must be added to each of her meals. In just the first month of being on this treatment, Misha has gained 12 lbs, but she still has more to gain before she reaches her ideal weight. PLEASE BE ADVISED that the monthly cost for Viokase-V is ~$600, so any potential adopter must be ready to commit to this cost to maintain Misha’s health! She will need to be on this supplement for the rest of her life. Additionally, Misha has been recently diagnosed with atypical Addision’s disease, and needs to be on a low dose of Prednisone daily for life as well. The cost of this treatment is minimal, thankfully. Despite Misha’s high-maintenance medical needs, she is a wonderful dog brimming with potential! She knows basic commands (come, sit, stay) and has the potential to learn much more with a little training. She has good recall, rides well in the car, and is good on the leash as well. She loves toys but does not tear them up, and she has shown the same respect for household items. She especially loves to play fetch, but you may need 2 balls to play with since she often will not drop the one she retrieves until you offer up another one to replace it.  In short, she's a great dog and would make an excellent family pet; she just needs a family that can commit to maintaining her health via this Viokase supplement.   https://youtu.be/593gZO2Gyso Age: 2 years  Weight: 54 lbs  (needs to be around 65) Vetting: Up-to-date on vaccines, spayed and heartworm negative and up to date on vaccines Temperament: great with everyone, loves dogs, great with kids.  Training: House trained but needs frequent bathroom breaks due to her medical conditions.    For questions, please email  ali.mentana@gmail.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.  November 6, 2024, 12:45 pm

Story
Chepp is a three year old German Shepherd who loves nothing more than to be home with his humans and go for walks. He gets along with other dogs and even cats but prefers to be with his people. That said, he does not have an ounce of aggression and is very polite around other animals. We think he would be great in a home with kids based on how much he loved spending time with his foster's six year old niece. Chepp is crate trained and house trained. He is a good boy when left alone in the house. His walks well on the leash but pulls sometimes. He knows some commands- sit. lay down, paw, and wait. Chepp has come a long way in his foster home and is ready to find a family to call his own! Age: 2 years  Weight: 75 lb   Temperament: good with dogs,  good with kids, not good with cats  Training: Housetrained, crate trained , knows commands, sit, wait, laydown, paw.    Vetting: neutered, up to date on vaccines, HW negative     For questions, please email:   sonaligokhale@yahoo.com  &#226&#128&#139   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.  November 13, 2024, 10:29 pm

Story
THIS IS A COURTESY POST       Please visit http://dirtroaddoggiesrescue.org  to fill out an app to meet/adopt Zuma.  Dirt Road Doggies Rescue Foster to adopt is also an option! Zuma is a striking young shepherd mix. This beautiful girl is around 1 year old; she weighs about 60lbs. She's crate trained and is house trained. She has a medium energy level and enjoys cuddles just as much as she loves doing zoomies around a fenced yard! Zuma is best described as playful, silly and sweet. She can take a few minutes to warm up, but then once she's comfortable around you she lets her fun personality shine! She does well with other dogs with proper introduction. Zuma would love a forever home with a fenced yard or an active family, (she's in foster with children and has done well with them), and a family who will provide her the recourses to continue gaining confidence. Zuma was found abandoned in a city park. This special girl deserves a wonderful home where she will be well loved! Zuma is spayed, fully vaccinated, and up to date on her vaccines.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 13, 2024, 9:13 am

She was found abandoned, tied to the train tracks in ATL in Aug 2023, and was taken in by a good samaritan. Unfortunately, her EPI was not being properly managed in her previous home due to financial constraints (which is ultimately why they had to surrender her), so she is currently severely underweight. She is now being treated with Viokase-V (no other enzymatic supplements we have tried will work for her), and in just 3 weeks of being on that treatment she has gained about 10 lbs, which is excellent, but she's still probably 15 lbs underweight. The Viokase-V supplement has to be given with each meal and has to be prepped in a very specific way - the food has to be moistened by adding a little water, then the powdered supplement has to be mixed in and allowed to 'incubate' for at least 20 minutes before Misha can eat it. She has to get it every time she eats, and therefore she cannot have any treats throughout the day unless they are given within 1 hour after she has a meal with the Viokase. Misha is also on Fluoxetine (Prozac) daily to manage anxiety, but it is possible that her anxiety was a result of her being in a constant state of starvation/desperation for sustenance that she wasn't getting due to her condition, coupled with the fact that she is a young, high-energy working breed who had not been adequately exercised. Now that she is putting on weight and able to be more active, she does not present any anxious behavior. She may be able to be weaned off of the Prozac once she is at her ideal weight and in a stable permanent home. Behaviorally, Misha is incredibly smart and super sweet - she knows some basic commands (sit, stay, come, kennel) and is eager to please and would take to additional training very readily. She is good on the leash and in the car, however, she gets very excitable when encountering other dogs on walks and will bark at/pull towards them. This is because she wants to meet/play with them, and we've noticed she's not as insistent about that if she is already walking with other dogs. She is very vocal and will bark to communicate that she wants something - when she's hungry, needs to go out, wants to play, etc. She will play fetch for hours if given the opportunity, but won't drop the ball unless you have another ball in your hand already, so you need to have 2 balls for playtime. She will also bark at other dogs as a way to instigate play with them, but she is very submissive and nonreactive - when another dog gets annoyed by her barking and checks her, she drops to the ground and leaves them alone. She is also very good with cats and kids, and lived with a cat and toddler in her previous home. Misha loves to cuddle and is not go-go-go all day long - there are long stretches throughout the day when she's content to just nap or laze around - but she does get restless if she's been inactive for too long, and she wakes up quite early eager to start the day. She is housebroken for the most part, but can't hold it for extended periods of time (possibly because of her condition - food and water goes right through her) so we crate her when we go out and she does occasionally have accidents in there if we're gone too long. However, as mentioned, she does let us know when she needs to go outside. She has not shown any destructive tendencies in the home and is even gentle with her toys. Overall, she is a really great dog and will absolutely thrive in the right environment. Her ideal home is an active family/individual with a large fenced yard and at least one other dog for her to play with.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 13, 2024, 9:13 am

Story
River was picked up as a stray by Clayton County animal control and after weeks without any interest, he found himself on the euthanasia list. We couldn’t stand the thought of such a gorgeous dog being killed so we pulled him and promised him we’d find a loving home. We’re still getting to know him but so far we can say he’s very smart, playful, and dog friendly. River will be neutered before being adopted but can be fostered in the meantime.
