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
Pets in Crisis Program: I am asking for assistance in finding a foster/forever home for Chico. I have a disabled veteran that has had 2 massive strokes and is now residing in a senior facility receiving rehab. Mr. Shell has decided he can no longer care for Chico, “the way he needs” and asked me to help find him a new home. I have some old vet paperwork showing Mr. Shell's ownership of the dog since 2019. I have been maintaining Chico in the only home environment he has ever known (by 2X a day for potty breaks/playtime) but it is so not enough. Some facts about Chico: 4yo male, not neutered, housebroken,55lbs. & sweet disposition. This is the only environment he has known and has never been in a car before. Has a crate but has not used it a lot as he’s gotten older, according to the owner. I am Mr. Shell’s social worker and would like to help my client have “Peace of mind, regarding relinquishing Chico. Dog is traumatized and lost without owner. Please help!

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!

Story
Dexter is a sweet, goofy older boy who just wants someone to cuddle and play fetch with. He has been known to toss a ball or frisbee to himself in a pinch, but he definitely prefers a human companion for these sort of sporting activities! Dexter also loves walks and is very good on the leash, but he tends to tire out after a mile or two. He is house trained and crate trained, and while he has on occasion managed to Houdini his way out of his crate, he has never caused any actual damage to the crate nor gotten into any mischief after he freed himself. He does very well with other dogs, but would do just fine as an only dog as well - he definitely prefers the company of humans over canines! He is generally a very quiet, low-key dog. That said, we recommend he not be placed in a home with cats (he has not shown any prey-drive tendencies, but he is a little too interested in them for their comfort level). While he is a very gentle boy, he does sometimes get a little jumpy (especially when meeting new people) and can inadvertently head-butt with his big blocky head, so a home with older kids would be ideal. He is very smart and knows basic commands (sit, stay, come, crate) and LOVES treats! Dexter has not shown any resource-guarding tendencies regarding food, treats, or toys but he can be a vocal player with other dogs. Dexter would love a home with a nice fenced yard for playing fetch, where he gets lots of human attention and snuggles. And he's pretty well trained too, check him out here: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/DTMYniyrDmJqV4BY/ Dexter gets along well with dogs around his size or bigger and loves to play with toys. Although he hasn't been around cats too often, he has met two and was curious but didn't lunge or chase them. With slow and supervised effort, he would likely get along fine with cats and small dogs. Here's some videos of his dog interactions: https://youtube.com/shorts/s50zqB8XoTs https://youtube.com/shorts/OxRzjbUOVXw Playing in the yard: https://youtu.be/mqxHcfH5Ryc Elect Dexter https://youtube.com/shorts/yOA6KScobN0?feature=share   Dexter loves walks and exploring, loves his pool, so his trainer recommends he goes to an active home. He'd also do great with a veteran or senior who still has some pep in their step. When he's not out and about, Dexter enjoys snuggling up on the couch with his humans while watching Netflix. Give this sweetheart a loving home in his  elder  years, especially this Holiday season. Please foster or adopt Dexter!  Age: 7 years  Weight: 55 lbs  Temperament: good with all adults, and enjoys other dogs his size or larger, should be fine with older respectful kids  and cats Vetting: Neutered, up to date on vaccines,  heratworm  negative  Training: House trained, crate trained, knows sit, down, stay/wait, his name, follow, come, look, and touch.  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.

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!February 14, 2025, 6:54 pm
