Story
Norma Jean: Tennis-Ball-Loving Pup Seeking Foster or Forever Home Meet Norma Jean, a playful, sweet 1.5 year-old who will happily chase a tennis ball for as long as you'll throw it! At just 28 pounds, she's a compact bundle of energy who knows how to switch off: give her some exercise and she'll happily chill out while you work or watch TV. See Norma Jean's Fun Video Reel See Video of Norma Jean's Obedience See Video of Norma Jean Playing with Dog Friend The Basics: 1.5 years old, 28 lbs, possibly a Beagle/Corgi/Jack Russell mix Even though she looks like a Beagle mix, she does not howl or bark excessively Housebroken and crate-trained Great at the vet and loves meeting people outside Very intelligent and responds well to training Her Personality: Norma Jean is a young, playful, and affectionate girl who loves people of all ages. She loves her toys and will toss them around to entertain herself. She loves to chase a ball and go for walks. She is determined to catch a chipmunk, but hasn't yet (and hopefully won't). She’s a devoted little companion who takes her role at home seriously. She barks when strangers come to the door, so she is placed in her crate before answering, and she meets guests after they enter the house. She’s been working with a trainer to learn that, as a little dog, she doesn’t have to be the big boss and protect everyone. She does great meeting people outside and is then fine with them coming into the house. Her new family will need to continue this training. With Other Dogs: Norma Jean enjoys being around other dogs. She would love to have a doggie sibling to play with. She does like to meet new dogs on a short walk outside before being thrown in the backyard with them. She has a confident personality and knows her boundaries. She likes being with playful, easygoing dogs whose personalities complement hers—or dogs who are happy to ignore her. She responds well to cues from other dogs and has lived with dogs ranging in size from 8-80 pounds. Like many dogs, she prefers to eat separately so she can eat at her own pace. She has shown no resource guarding with humans when it comes to food or toys. Her Ideal Home: Although she is great with little kids, we prefer a home for her with teens and adults, where everyone can be mindful of doors and entrances. A calm, consistent, loving family committed to continuing her training. Daily exercise, playtime, and plenty of tennis-ball adventures! Norma Jean needs a foster or adopter as soon as possible. She has so much love and personality to share. She’s looking for a foster or forever home where she can continue her training, enjoy her favorite activities, and be loved for the amazing dog she is. Email for Questions: amy@doggieharmony.org Apply: https://doggieharmony.org/forms Doggie Harmony is a pet placement and matchmaking service that works with community members who are already housing a pet. Interested adopters are asked to apply at https://doggieharmony.org/forms and allow a home visit, so we can make sure each pet is a great match. Please ask the pet’s current caretaker directly about their return process, and request an adoption contract. While we can’t offer immediate intake for dogs that need to be returned, we’re always happy to help a family rehome a pet while they continue to care for it. Every match keeps a pet out of Georgia’s overcrowded shelters, where more than 30,000 dogs and cats are euthanized each year. Last Updated: 11/7/26November 10, 2026, 4:23 pm
