My story

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

Marshall is a gorgeous fluffy white and black dog. He's friendly to all and has done fine with other dogs. He has an independent play style (live and let live.) He's a big dog at 73 lbs but still considers himself a lap dog. He's a good medium energy dog and playful. He loves chasing a ball and running around doing zoomies. Marshall would love to have a yard to run around in. Once he gets his energy out, he plops down and if a lap is available that's where he'll be. He's very sweet and gentle. He knows his sit command and he's calm, even-tempered , affectionate and treat motivated which makes him highly trainable. Marshall needs a home with people who understand he enjoys play time and cuddle time in equal measure. (He's a big believer in a balanced life style.) Marshall combines good looks and a loving personality all in one. He'll make a fantastic companion, a hiking, walking running , adventure buddy, followed by some cuddle time in your lap. What's not to love?

Age: 3 years      Weight: 73 lb    Temperament: Good with dogs and  older sturdy kids as he needs to learn not to jump up,  Training: Knows commands:  sit.  Housetraining unknown currently in a shelter.   Vetting: neutered, up to date on vaccines, HW negative    For questions, please email:   nlherna@emory.edu  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. 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.

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

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.
