Story
Bubba has been my best friend since moving to Atlanta. He has a huge personality and is very stubborn. He has a lot of puppy-like traits and likes to gently nibble hands when he is excited. You can usually just tell him to stop. He likes to play catch and tug. He has never ruined any shoes, but he has had a run in or who with my baseball caps and socks (he likes chewing anything that smells like me). Bubba does not seem to enjoy a long walk- but he loves to be outside sniffing and barking “hello” at passersby. Bubba needs a lot of attention and close companionship or he does start to develop a bit of an attitude and resorts to regressive behaviors (peeing by the door). I admit that he could use some training- it has just been us and our cat working from home for the last 2 years. Everyone in the family loves Bubba. He has been on several road trips (up to 14hrs) and he loves to travel. Bubba is a superstar and loves wearing shirts! His whole attitude changes in a T-shirt.

Zuko is mostly Olde English Bulldogge, with the perfectly round bowling ball shaped head, short legs with turned out ankles, and the bulldog build. Picture in your head the emblem on a Mack truck - that's our boy!! He's a compact and muscular 52 pounds, and thinks his perfect place in life would be to ride shotgun in a . . . .you guessed it . . . Mack truck! If you have a truck that needs a riding companion, or if you just want this boy to snuggle up to you on the couch, he will be up for it!November 1, 2024, 6:01 pm

Story
Meet Curry, fka Oscar! His name was selected because he is "spicy but in a good way"!  This little guy has the cutest round head, and short legs, with turned out ankles. He is likely a bulldog / staffy cross. He is under 50 pounds, but still needs to put on around 5. He has already gained 12 pounds, so he was in really poor condition when he arrived at the shelter, after being picked up as a stray. His hair has filled back in, his head doesn't looked skeletal anymore, and his tail has clearly recovered too, because it's a non-stop wag!  November 1, 2024, 6:01 pm

Story
Hi, I’m Otto! I’m a laid-back and affectionate guy who loves to hang out at home for a good nap or snuggle on the couch. If you’re looking for a dog who’s content to relax with you, I’m your guy! I’m also housebroken, so you don’t have to worry about any accidents—I`m a very polite pup in that regard. I enjoy going for walks, though I’m more of a medium/low-energy type, so a nice walk usually tires me out. I might pull a bit on the leash, but I’m mostly just excited to get outside and see what’s going on. During the week I was with my foster, it snowed, so we didn’t get to go on any long hikes, but I really do like being outside and taking in the fresh air. I also love car rides—whether it`s to a park or just around town, I`m happy to go for a spin! While I’m a little shy at first when meeting new people, I warm up pretty quickly. When I do, I get all wiggly and happy, with my tail wagging non-stop. I love getting pets, and belly rubs are my absolute favorite! I get along well with people, and I’m gentle with my leash manners, but I can still be a little shy when I meet strangers. I’ve never met any kids or cats, and I haven’t spent time with other dogs during my adventure, but I’m friendly and eager to get to know anyone who’s kind to me.I’m pretty independent, and while I do enjoy companionship, I’m also fine being left out when my foster had to go somewhere. I’ve spent some time in a crate when my foster was working, but I’m not sure if I’m crate-trained—sometimes I just liked to curl up in there for a little quiet time. If you’re looking for a sweet, easygoing dog who will be your loyal companion, I’d love to meet you!

Story
Hi, I’m Fenway! I’m a pretty laid-back guy, but I can get my energy up when it`s time to play. I’m a mix of chill and active, which makes me a great companion for all sorts of activities—especially fetch. If you throw a tennis ball, I’ll bring it back every time and drop it right at your feet. No kidding, I’m a pro at fetch!I get along great with everyone—dogs, cats, kids, you name it. I’m super gentle, so I’m always a good boy around others. When I meet new people, I get a little excited and curious, but I’m friendly and love making new friends.Now, I’ll admit it, I sometimes envy the little dogs who get to be lap dogs. I’m just a little too big for that, but I LOVE to snuggle! I’ll always want to be close to you, even if I can’t quite fit in your lap.One of my best traits? I’m a total gentleman. I’m easy to leave alone while you’re out—I don’t need to be crated, and I’m always good about doing my business outside without taking forever to sniff every bush. (A real bonus, especially in the cold!) Oh, and I know “sit” like a champ.If you love playing ball, snuggling, and chilling out for a movie night, then I’m definitely your guy. I’m just looking for a family who’ll appreciate my sweet, easy-going nature and keep the tennis balls coming!

Story
Please contact ADOPTION (adopt@doggieharmony.org) for more information about this pet.Meet Chai, the pocket-sized ball of sunshine and enthusiasm! This adorable pooch is small but mighty, with a constant grin and a cute little underbite when she is focused. The best part? She's a social butterfly and loves making new friends with humans. She loves strutting her stuff around town, and soaking up all the love and attention she can get. Chai's story is one of perseverance. She was rescued from animal control by a loving owner, but faced discrimination from her condo community. However, thanks to a sponsored training program, she's blossomed into an obedient and clever pup. She's mastered the art of walking on a leash (mostly), but her inner hunter still gets her riled up by squirrels and small speedy critters. She just needs a firm hand to guide her. Spending time with Chai is like taking a shot of pure joy. She's got a spunky personality that's contagious, and her petite frame and cute little legs make her all the more endearing. She's like a cup of chai tea - a sweet treat for those who appreciate her zesty spirit!

Monty is a tri color stunner of a dog, who we think is a Bull Terrier / Smooth Coat Collie mix! He has a trim, athletic build, and the domed forehead so characteristic of the bull terrier breed. He is a medium sized dog, weighing in at only 38 pounds. He has laser focus, and is so very, very smart! He's going to make his handler look like the best dog trainer in the room - lol! We think think boy would be an amazing candidate for dog sports! If you've ever wanted to stick your toes in the waters of dog sports, like disc or dock diving, or agility, this boy would be thrilled to learn with you. He loves all humans, and absolutely LOVES other dogs! This boy is sure to be popular, and we could not be happier to have him in our program! Welcome, Monty!November 1, 2024, 6:01 pm

Story
Wash has been with us for twelve years now. He's played nana, jungle gym, and protector to our first and only child. He loves to run after tennis balls, though fetch has always been a temperamental challenge since he loves being chased as much as he loves running after a thrown ball. He has a big heart, loves attention, but is also perfectly happy to lay at your feet and laze about. We're moving overseas and the stress of the trip and month plus long quarantine with uncertain peer policies for housing is just too much to put this loveable mutt through. He deserves an easy and stable life, hopefully that will be with you.
