Story
Looking for a loving home for our sweet little Yorkie. She is just under a year old, about 5 pounds, and has the most affectionate personality. She loves being close to you and will happily curl up on your lap for snuggles any chance she gets. She is very friendly and does great with people. She is still working on potty training, so she’ll need a little patience and consistency, but she is a smart girl and eager to learn. This was a difficult decision for our family, but with our schedules we aren’t home enough to give her the time and attention she truly deserves. We are looking for a home where she will be loved, cared for, and able to get lots of attention. Serious inquiries only, we just want to find the right fit for her.

Story
Autumn is a beautiful brown merle Cocker Spaniel puppy with a sweet, playful personality. She was acquired from a breeder and has been raised in a home environment with lots of attention and interaction. Autumn is affectionate, energetic, curious, and loves being around people. She enjoys playing, exploring, cuddling, and spending time with her family. Autumn does currently have cherry eye, which is common in Cocker Spaniels, and we want to be fully transparent about that. Aside from this, she is a happy, loving puppy with lots of personality. She is still young and would do best with someone who has the time and patience to continue training, socialization, and giving her plenty of exercise and attention. We are looking for a safe, caring, forever home where she will be treated like part of the family. Autumn is loyal, loving, and full of life, and she will make a wonderful companion for the right person or family.

Story
Excellent family dogMeet Sadie – Proof That Age Is Just a Number  Sadie may have a little gray on her muzzle, but don’t let that fool you—this 10-year-young, 60-lb girl still has the heart and energy of a pup half her age! She loves to run, play, and be part of the action, making her a wonderful match for an active family. One of Sadie’s greatest talents? Snuggling. When playtime is over, she’s more than happy to curl up next to you and soak up all the love. She’s also a dream house guest: fully house-trained, crate-trained, and trustworthy enough to be left alone uncrated—no destruction, no drama. Sadie adores kids and adults and gets along well with other dogs (though she’d do best without tiny dogs—she’s a little too enthusiastic and might accidentally step on them!). Sadie at a Glance: Age: 10 years Weight: 60 lbs Temperament: Fantastic with kids, adults, and most dogs Training: House-trained, crate-trained, knows basic commands Vetting: Spayed, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative If you’re looking for a playful, affectionate companion who’s past the puppy chaos but still full of life, Sadie could be your perfect match! Questions? Email amy@doggieharmony.org *** To ensure we're meeting both pet and adopters' needs, we ask potential adopters to complete an Adoption Application (www.doggieharmony.org/forms) 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. Please expect an adoption fee of $300; some of our urgent or long-term dogs have discounted fees.March 7, 2026, 5:36 pm

Story
Please contact ADOPTION (adopt@doggieharmony.org) for more information about this pet.Meet Jolly — Your Built-In Best Friend! At just 3.5 years old and a solid, huggable 61 lbs, Jolly has already lived quite a story. He was once the nighttime companion of a homeless individual, and that early bond with people shines through in everything he does. Jolly is a true companion dog — loyal, sweet, and happiest when he’s by your side. He is more comfortable and secure if you provide structure and you direct him. This gentle boy gets along beautifully with other dogs, does just fine with cats, and is an all-around lovebug with adults. Because of his size, he’d do best with older, sturdy kids who understand how to share space with a big softie. Jolly is the total package! Whether you’re looking for a walking buddy, a snuggle buddy, or a loyal shadow to follow you from room to room, Jolly is ready to step into that role with a big tail wag and an even bigger heart. Age: 3.5 years Weight: 60 lbs Temperament: Good with other dogs, cats, older sturdy kids, all adults Training: Housetrained, crate-trained, walks nicely on leash Vetting: neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, heartworm negative Email for questions: asimon100@outlook.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.
