Gladius is a highly adoptable, highly desirable two year old female German Shepherd looking dog. She acts like a big puppy and loves chasing a ball over and over again for as long as you are willing to throw it. She's playful, friendly and smart. She's fun and has a very sweet temperament. She's been social with other dogs at the shelter in their play groups. She would do best in a home that will give her plenty of playtime and exercise. If she lives in an apartment, she would need to get regular exercise. Active seniors might also be fine since she's pretty good on leash and living with another dog might also work. She can be a little mouthy and jumpy because she's young and active and needs a family willing to work with her on that. All in all, she's a very good natured, beautiful girl. She'll be a great addition to any home. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/DUeJq9UhTRk Age: 2 years Weight: 57 lb Temperament: Good with dogs and older sturdy kids as he needs to learn not to jump up, Training: Knows commands: sit, drop it , leave it. Housetraining unknown currently in a shelter. Vetting: spayed, up to date on vaccines, HW negative For questions, please email: nlherna@emory.edu 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.

Additional adoption info
Those interested in dogs on our site are asked submit an application that we share with this dog's current caretaker. The caretaker reviews it to see if the pup would make a good fit for your home and if so, they will follow up with a phone interview. If you both agree it's a match, you would sign a contract, pay a fee and receive your dog within 2 weeks.
If both caretaker and applicant agree that the dog is a great fit, a contract is signed between the parties and the adoption fee is $400.00-$450.00 and is collected via PayPal. This adoption fee covers the cost of transport and also ensures the dog has all of it's basic vetting to include spay/neuter, shots, etc.

Our dogs travel from Atlanta, Georgia directly to their adoptive homes in the northeast. Our transporter drives up the coast from DC, all the way to Kittery, Maine.
While you can't meet our dogs prior to adoption, we will speak with you extensively, provide videos, share trainer evaluations and offer proof of vetting to ensure our dogs are a match for your home. Those that aren't, would be returned to us here in Atlanta at no cost to the adopter.
We also have partners in the Northeast who can help us facilitate adoptions and/or returns.

More about this rescue
Doggie Harmony was founded in Atlanta in 2009 by Liz Mansour and Jamie Sprague, a couple of neighbors seeking to help stray dogs that turned up locally.
From there, Doggie Harmony expanded to other neighborhoods and other people who found dogs and eventually, it was realized that nearly every neighborhood in Georgia found strays, most of which ended up in our grossly over-populated county shelters. With an estimated 300,000 unwanted pets destroyed yearly in Georgia shelters, we realized we had to find more homes to put them in.
In 2012, we began building partnerships with northeastern rescues and developed a consistent process for matching our dogs to great people and delivering those dogs to their homes up there. To become even more self-sufficent and less burdensome on our northeastern friends, we decided to launch Doggie Harmony Northeast.
